VEGETABLE ROOTS 
RUST-PROOF MARY WASHINGTON 
ASPARAGUS ROOTS 
Get your asparagus roots direct from Salzer’s celebrated Cliff- 
wood Farms this year! This new variety is so rapidly replacing all 
other strains, that we have discontinued growing any but the Rust- 
Proof Washington Asparagus Roots. The Washington type lias 
been bred to resist rust. It has thick and heavy shoots, long and 
straight, and closely folded tips. It is a beautiful rich dark green 
color, darker green at the tips, and is a very heavy yiehler. You 
will be delighted with both the quality and appearance of this fine 
variety. Growing rapidly, it is the most tender of all! Plant these 
extra large roots and save from 1 V 2 to 2 years’ time in having your 
bed ready for cutting. Set roots 4 inches deep and 18 inches apart 
in rows about 4 feet wide, fertilizing well with stable manure or 
other fertilizer. The richer the soil, the better the crop. Plant 100 
roots to 15 by 20 foot bed. Two-year-old roots can be cut the fol¬ 
lowing year.

CHIVES (Schnittlauch) 
This plant should be more widely cultivated than it is. 
Chives are grown for the young leaf stems, which have a 
mild onion flavor. Makes a delicious dish, especially when 
prepared with cottage cheese. Also used extensively in 
soups, stews, etc. They are easily grown indoors in pots, 
for winter use. We offer only Cliffwood Grown Roots, 
which are noted for their fine quality and flavor.

HORSERADISH ROOTS

best in a rather moist, partly shaded

length for planting.
