The Cinnamon Vine is one of the most satis¬ 
factory climbers. Its handsome foliage and 
fragrant, cinnamon-scented blossoms com¬ 
mend it to every lover of flowers. It Is 
tuberous-rooted and, once planted, will grow 
a lifetime. It is perfectly hardy, thrives on 
all soils, in sun or shade, wet or dry. No 
insects or blight ever trouble. Will quickly 
surround your windows, arbors and porches 
with a mass of vines, and profusion of small

grown mainly for its beauty and fragrant 
blossoms, the tubers are edible, being most 
delicious when baked like sweet potatoes.

porches, walks, etc., plant 8 inches or a foot 
apart, covering 2 inches. Furnish twine 
support for the vines. Choice tubers— 15c

SALSIFY—Or Vegetable Oyster 
The Salsify is one of the most delicious and nutritious of vegetables, and should 
be more generally cultivated for use in winter, when the supply of really good 
vegetables is so limited. It has a grassy top and a long, white, tapering root, 
nearly resembling a small parsnip. It closely assimilates to the taste and flavor 
of the oyster, when properly cooked, and is a good substitute for it; very wholesome 
and nutritious. The roots are either boiled and mashed or made into fritters, in 
which form they are delicious. The roots are perfectly hardy, and may remain 
out all winter, but should be dug early in the spring, as they deteriorate rapidly 
after growth commences. Store a quantity for winter use in a pit or cellar in damp 
earth or sand. This variety is large and strong growing with long, smooth, white, 
tapering roots, and is less liable to branch out than the other sorts. It is inval¬ 
uable for market gardeners’ use.
