Vegetable Plants and Roots 
FROST-PROOF CABBAGE PLANTS—Jersey or Charleston Wakefield. 
Winter hardened, that you can plant out the first day you can work the soil. 
These plants are growing right here on our land and are much hardier than 
plants grown farther south, with added advantages of lower shipping 
charges. Good, healthy, large plants that get you the first cabbages on 
the market. 
CABBAGE PLANTS—Ready from May on during the summer. Wakefield, 
Late Flat Dutch, Danish Short Stem Ballhead, Drumhead, Savoy and Red- 
Rock. All cabbage plants aie grown from the very highest selected grade 
of seeds. A trial will convince you they are low in price considering the 
quality. In plants, remember, all your profits for a season depend on the 
quality of the plants. We have ideal soil for cabbage plants. I wish I 
could show you what fine plants we grow on this soil. I am sure if you 
need plants, you will want some of ours. They are hard, firm and will ship 
well indeed. 
TOMATO PLANTS. Ready late May. Bonny Best, John Baer, Selected 
Marglobe and Rutgers. The last named being the largest and best for 
canning for home or factory. Better in every way than Stone. 
PEPPER PLANTS. Ready late May. California Wonder and Worldbeater; 
(Sweet peppers). Also Long Red Cayenne (Hot peppers). 
EGG PLANT. New York, Improved Purple and Black Beauty. From pots 
5c each; 50c per doz. See price list for good strong plants. 
SWEET POTOTOES. Plants ready from about May 15th to July. Yellow 
Jersey, Dry mealy type. Nancy Hall, Golden fleshed yam type. 
CAULIFLOWER. Selected strain of Early Snowball. 
MINT. A very appetizing mint for meats. 
SELECTED RED RHUBARB. Strong one and two year old roots. 
ASPARAGUS ROOTS. Mary Washington. Justly claimed to be the best 
rust resistant strain. Strong 1 year old roots—the size recommended by 
the Department of Agriculture. 
NOTE. If you want information on growing Asparagus, we suggest you 
write the Department of Agriculture for free Government Bulletin No. 298, 
or consult a good book on gardening.
