EARLIEST SPRING INCOME 
Before other Spring vegetables are ready you can be selling 
Asparagus, and find a ready market for it. Cash comes in 
handy at that time of the year tool Tips can be bunched and 
shipped to nearby markets — the straight ones for retail and 
crooked ones for canning factory trade. There’s no waste to 
Washington, for every tip is healthy and useable.

Returns of $25 to every $1 invested in Washington Rust-Proof 
Asparagus plantings! That’s the report of growers — and they make it 
every year from the same field for 10 to 15 years. The crop requires very 
little labor, and fertilizer costs little — or nothing if you have stable 
manure available. Wise growers have discarded all old 
varieties in favor of Washington. It produces attractive 
purplish-green stalks which are noted for tenderness and rich 
flavor. Enormously productive of first-rate stalks. Rapid 
grower, which means many cuttings and more profits. 5,000 
roots plant an acre.
