Great Northern Baking: Beans. Natural Size. 
Field Beans 
GREAT NORTHERN 
The Most Delicious Baking Bean in the World 
Everyone knows the Great Northern Bean, but few know that the seed was originally obtained by 
Oscar H. Will fifty years ago from Son of a Star, an Hidatsa Indian, by whose tribe it had been raised for 
many years. Hardy, a wonderful yielder, sweeter, more tender, more readily digestible, and more quickly 
cooked than Navy Beans, the Great Northern is one of the most largely grown field sorts. X A lb., 8c; 
% lb., 14c; 1 lb., 25c. Not prepaid: 10 lbs., $1.25: 100 lbs., $10.00. 
HIDATSA RED. A heavy yielder, hardy and an excellent baking Bean. The seed is similar to the Great 
Northern in shape, but is red in color. Pkt., 5c; *4 lb., 12c; y 2 lb., 20c; 1 lb., 32c, postpaid. 
ARIKARA YELLOW. Even better flavored than the Hidatsa, but not quite as heavy a yielder. It is named 
after one of the Ft. Berthold Indian tribes by whom it is much grown. Pkt., 5c; *4 lb., 12c; y 2 lb., 20e; 
1 lb., 32c, postpaid.

Culture. One ounce will sow fifty feet of drill. Sow early in Spring in rows 
one foot apart: when one year old the roots may be taken up and transplanted 
in permanent beds, which should be made by taking out the soil to a depth 
of about 16 inches: fill in with six inches of well rotted stable manure, then 
six inches of soil somewhat firmed. Place the ro.ots on the same about 10 
inches apart with the roots well spread out, and cover so that the crown will 
be about four inches below the surface. Keep the surface well raked to keep 
down the weeds until the shoots appear. 
MARY WASHINGTON. The new rust resistant variety developed 
by the experts of the U. S. Department of Agriculture which 
we believe will soon be grown to the exclusion of all other 
varieties. A very heavy yielding pedigreed strain; the rich, 
dark green stalks are long, thick and heavy. About 225 seeds 
to a packet. Pkt., 10c; oz„ 20c; 14 lb., 45c; 1 lb., $1.25, postpaid. 
ASPARAGUS ROOTS 
MARY WASHINGTON. Price, postpaid, doz„ 35c; 50, $1.00; 
100, $1.75. F. O. B. here, 50, 90c; 100, $1.65; 1,000, $12.00. 
Rosenkohl (Ger.) BRUSSELS SPROUTS Rosenkaal (Scan.) 
LONG ISLAND IMPROVED. Undoubtedly the best and most de¬ 
pendable sort of this most delicately flavored of the Cabbage 
family. This variety is the earliest, most dwarf and compact. 
Pkt., 10c; oz., 20c; *4 lb., 60c; 1 lb., $2.00. 
Blatterkohl (Ger.) BORECOLE OR KALE Greenkaal (Scan.) 
GREEN CURLED or SCOTCH. This is more hardy than cabbage 
and makes excellent greens for Fall and early Spring. A good 
frost improves the quality. About 1,300 seeds to the packet. 
Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; *A lb., 30c; y 2 lb., 55c; 1 lb., $1.00, postpaid. 
Spargelkohl (Ger.) BROCCOLI Broccoli-Kaal (Scan.) 
ITALIAN GREEN SPROUTING. A distinct variety forming a large 
solid head, w'hich remains green. When the central head is cut, 
numerous sprouts develop from the leaf axes, each sprout termi¬ 
nating in a small green head. Cooked as is cauliflower, it is 
very easily grown and decidedly worth trying. Pkt., 10c; y 2 oz., 
30c; oz., 50c. 
We have bought your seeds for twenty-eight years.
