We have sold the Hastings potato in every state of the Union and they 
have given universal satisfaction. A cousin of mine grew 83 pounds from one 
tuber. A man in New Hampshire produced 138 pounds from one tuber weigh¬ 
ing 1 pound. A man in Oregon got 140 potatoes, weighing 98 pounds, from one 
potato weighing 1 pound. We could fill tliis book with like testimonials

Rhubarb or Pieplant 
This is one of the first vegetables to start, in the spring and furnishes 
material for pies and sauces before anything else in the fruit line is available. 
Pie plant is not only palatable but is healthful, tending.to clear the blood of 
impurities in the spring after a long, hard winter. The roots are very hardy 
and can be made to grow readily if given rich soil and clean culture. We 
would plant them in rows about 4 to 5 feet apart, with plants about 12 to 18 
inches apart in the row. All that is necessary is to keep the land clean of 
weeds and well cultivated. Each fall it is a good plan to put a forkful of rich 
manure about each plant to facilitate growth. If barrels or boxes are placed 
over the plants in early spring to exclude the light and keep away the frosts 
and cold winds, the stalks will make a large, tender growth much earlier than 
as though they were left exposed. The growth will be all stalk with little 
leaf. After the plants have been growing for several years, they will do better 
if taken ui) and divided and reset. We have an immense stock of pie plant 
roots to offer. They will be all split, ready to plant. Note our reduced prices.
