General List of Vegetables 
ASPARAGUS 
One ounce of seed will sow about 50 feet of drill 
Pedigreed Mary Washington. (Reselected 
Seed.) One of the difficulties in growing 
Asparagus is the damage often done by 
rust. Dusting with powdered sulphur when 
the plants are wet with dew is good prac¬ 
tice, and spraying with Bordeaux Mixture 
is also to be recommended. The best pro¬ 
cedure, however, is to plant only rust- 
resistant varieties, and Reselected Pedi¬ 
greed Mary Washington is the most highly 
resistant type we know. Pkt. 15 cts.;
