crisp, and tender; edges of the outer leaves reddish bronze. 
White Boston. 75 days. Similar to Big Boston but with 
leaves slightly lighter green and free from a brown tint; 
heart buttery yellow; excellent quality. 
White Paris Cos. 55 days. A sort with long, narrow, upright 
leaves; does not head, but when tied up blanches very nicely; 
bears close planting. A splendid sort for summer use. 
Mustard 
White London. 60 days. A variety with small, smooth, dark 
green leaves, which are greatly relished as salads, or when 
cooked like spinach. The seed should be sown in shallow 
drills as early as the ground can be prepared in spring. 
Pure-Spore Culture Mushroom Spawn 
The growing of Mushrooms is rapidly increasing, and the 
demand for them has reached immense proportions. A fine 
crop of Mushrooms can be secured with very little labor or 
expense, provided a suitable location can be obtained. Cellars, 
greenhouses, and sheds can be used for their culture. We are 
now offering our customers Spawn that is made in quart milk 
jars under absolutely sterile conditions. The bottle and 
materials are sterilized under steam pressure of twelve pounds, 
so that every mould, weed seed or insect is destroyed, and 
each bottle contains nothing but the pure Spawn. Every 
particle is full run, covered with Spawn grown direct from 
the spores. One carton of the Spawn equals five bricks of 
ordinary Spawn and is sufficient to spawn about 40 square feet. 
The sterile Spawn is dried thoroughly and each piece wrapped 
in tissue paper, which contains full instructions, not only as to 
how the Spawn should be used, but full particulars about 
growing Mushrooms. Anyone can order Spawn and with it 
get the necessary knowledge to make growing successful.
