608 Shumway’s Improved Sugar 
“The very best Parsnip grown.’’ It is enormously productive, roots 
are 10 to 12 inches long and about 3 inches thick at the shoulder. It is 
rich in saccharine, has smooth white skin, is uniform in shape, is sweet, 
tender sugary. It is remarkably free from side roots; in fact, in this 
respect it is about the cleanest of all parsnips. It is fine grained and 
of superior flavor. Not only of fine table quality but the heavy yield 
and high sugar content make it very desirable for stock feeding. Par¬ 
snips will improve the richness of your cows’ milk. Will also store 
wonderfully well for winter use when the ground is frozen. Pkt., 10 cts.; 
oz., 19 cts.; i / 4 lb., 42 cts.; y 2 lb., 71 cts.; lb., $1.25; 2 lbs., $2.40, postpaid. 
Parsnips prefer very wet soil and will thrive where 
carrots will not grow. They make splendid stock 
feed, and horses prefer them to car¬ 
rots. A freeze is required to sweeten 
them. For the best results, deep soil 
is needed, and fresh manure should not 
be used as it will cause the roots to 
divide. 
609 Hollow Crown or Long Smooth 
A highly improved type producing uniformly largo and handsome roots of stocky 
form, heavy at the shoulder, well rounded, gradually tapering to the base. Flesh 
white, of fine texture, free from core and stringiness; fine flavored. Cooks tender; 
sweet and rich; enormously productive and exceptionally smooth. Pkt., 5 cts.; oz., 
10 cts.; 1/4 lb., 29 cts.; y 2 lb., 46 cts.; lb., 75 cts.; 2 lbs,, $L35, postpaid. 
The earliest variety 
grown maturing in 
about 100 days. 
Plants upright, with 
abundant and heavy 
foliage; the pods 
cluster at their base. 
Pods are small but 
well filled with nuts 
of sweeter and finer 
flavor than the larger 
sorts. It is the kind 
mostly used for pea¬ 
nut candy and salted 
peanuts and is also 
the best for peanut 
butter and oil, con¬ 
taining 10 per cent 
more oil than others.
