GREAT NORTHERN 
The Most Delicious Baking Bean in the World 
Everyone knows the Great Northern Bean, but few know that the seed was originally obtained 
by Oscar H. Will forty-eight years ago from Son of a Star, an Hidatsa Indian, by whose tribe it 
had been raised for many years. Hardy, a wonderful yielder, sweeter, more tender, more read¬ 
ily digestible, and more quickly cooked than Navy Beans, the Great Northern is one of the most 
largely grown field sorts. % lb., 8c; *4 lb., 14c; 1 lb., 25c. Not prepaid: 10 lbs., $1.20; 100 lbs., 
$ 10 . 00 . 
Field Beans 
Great Northern Baking Beans. Natural Size. 
Spargel (Ger.) 
Culture. One ounce will sow fifty feet of drill. Sow early in Spring in rows one foot 
apart; when one year old the roots may be taken up and transplanted in permanent 
beds, which should be made by taking out the soil to a depth of about 16 inches; fill 
m with six inches of well rotted stable manure, then six inches of soil somewhat firmed. 
Place the roots on the same about 10 inches apart with the roots well spread out, and 
cover so that the crown will be about four inches below the surface. Keep the surface 
well raked to keep down the weeds until the shoots appear. 
MARY WASHINGTON. The new rust resistant variety developed by the 
experts of the U. S. Department of Agriculture which we believe will soon 
be grown to the exclusion of all other varieties. A very heavy yielding 
pedigreed strain; the rich, dark green stalks are long, thick and heavy. 
About 225 seeds to a packet. Pkt., 10c; oz., 20c; % lb., 45c; 1 lb., $1.25,

pendable sort of this most delicately flavored of the Cabbage 
family. This variety is the earliest most dwarf and compact.

ITALIAN GREEN SPROUTING. A distinct variety forming a large 
solid head, which remains green. When the central head is cut, 
numerous sprouts develop from the leaf axes, each sprout termi¬ 
nating in a small green head. Cooked as is cauliflower, it is 
very easily grown and decidedly worth trying. Pkt., 10c; Yz «*•»
