SALSIFY-OYSTER PLANT 
SORREL 
Culture One of the most desirable winter vegetables, and one which de¬ 
serves to be more used. Before sowing, the soil must be stirred to considerable 
depth. Sow early and quite deep. Frost does not hurt the roots, but a quantity 
should be stored for winter in a pit or cool cellar before the ground freezes. 
An ounce will sow 75 feet; 8 to 10 pounds per acre. 
MAMMOTH SANDWICH ISLAND This variety is less liable to 
branch than most varieties, but coarse or fresh manure should 
not be used if smooth roots are wanted. We grow this seed 
ourselves for critical customers. Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; lb., 40c; 
lb., $1.50. 
Culture A hardy perennial, which may bear 
for for several years. Sow in spring or sum¬ 
mer in drills. Excellent in salads, or cooked like 
spinach. The flavor of the green leaf is slightly 
sour, hence often called Sour Grass. An ounce 
will sow 150 feet; 10 to 12 pounds per acre. 
NARROW LEAF (Silver Leaf) Grown on 
our own Milford farms, this is a 
very special stock of sorrel. It is 
superior in many ways to the imported 
seed, and we are seldom able to grow 
enough to meet the demand. Pkt., 
10c; oz., 30c; *4 lb., $1.00; lb., $3.00.
