Asparagus Seed 
Brussels Sprouts 
Asparagus 
CULTURE—One ounce of seed will sow a row 
40 feet long. 2 pounds are needed to produce 
enough roots to set out one acre. Plant Asparagus 
in fertile soil and keep crop cultivated throughout 
the season. It is best not to cut the one-year-old 
roots until the second year after planting; the 
two-year-old roots will produce a limited crop 
the following spring after they have been set out.

has replaced practically all other type, both in 
the home garden and for market. The plants 
form large clean shoots which are thick and 
heavy. They are long and straight, with closely 
folded tips. It is a heavy yielder and a long- 
lived producer of exceptionally fine quality. It 
has proved to be practically rust-free.
