EMLONG-GROWN ROOTS ARE BEST 
We replant our Asparagus fields every year. Only pedigreed 
seed is used. Our high, rich, well-drained soil makes long, 
white roots which are entirely free from disease and sure to 
grow. No old, hollow stock like some nurseries ship out! 
NOT ONE "KICK" IN A MILLION ROOTS SOLD LAST YEAR! 
HOW TO PLANT ASPARAGUS 
Dig or plow a furrow 8 inches dgep and spread out roots 18 
inches apart in bottom of furrow. Throw in two inches of soil, 
and gradually add more to fill furrow as tips come through. 
For field culture space rows 5 feet apart, for garden culture 
2 feet apart. Plant in Spring only. About 5,000 roots are re¬ 
quired per acre. 
With every 100 roots or m&e o!
