MARY WASHINGTON 
Rust Resisting ASPARAGUS For Profit 
STRONG PLANTS at $4.95 per THOUSAND 
As an extra early money crop nothing can compare with Aspara¬ 
gus. Growers are netting from $500.00 to $1,000.00 per acre from 
this early spring, easy-to-grow crop. There is always a good demand 
for fresh asparagus and a welcome early spring income can be ob¬ 
tained from Asparagus growing on a commercial scale or by selling 
the surplus from your home garden. 
MARY WASHINGTON BEST OF WASHINGTON STRAINS 
Washington Asparagus was developed by the United States De¬ 
partment of Agriculture in their search for a rust-resistant variety of 
Asparagus. At that time it was far ahead of any of the varieties then 
grown. This sort was next improved upon and the result was named 
Martha Washington. This last named variety, while the best of any 
strain of Asparagus as yet produced, was not considered to be as 
good as could be grown. Further experiments developed the Mary 
Washington which is different from the rest but still of the Wash¬ 
ington strain. Today, Rokely’s are offering you this best of all As¬ 
paragus grown from certified Mary Washington strain seed. Don’t 
buy Washington when you can get MARY WASHINGTON for 
the same money. 
Our Asparagus Roots are grown on a rich sandy soil that produces 
long, white roots and heavy crowns. Our 1-year roots are as heavy 
as the 2-year roots offered by many firms.

VICTORIA RHUBARB 
A Crop for Early 
Money 
Rhubarb is another big money crop. It 
comes on the market long before fresh 
fruit, and when everyone is hungry for pie, 
sauce, or anything in the fresh line. Once 
planted it is good for a lifetime and needs 
very little attention. 
Mammoth Victoria Rhubarb is famed 
for size, flavor, tenderness and rich color. 
Immensely productive and keeps right on 
growing—cutting seems to have very little 
effect. 
Plant Rhubarb to market with your As¬ 
paragus and double your early spring in¬ 
come.
