How to Grow Asparagus 
Manure the ground heavily, using well rotted barn ma¬ 
nure. Make a trench 8 to 10 inches deep. Have 4 inches 
of good rich ground on the bottom, spread the roots out 
evenly and fill in about 3 to 4 inches of soil. Leave the 
rest of the trench lay open for the first summer. Let 
all stalks grow the first year. Fill the trench up in the 
fall of the first year. Let several stalks grow on each 
plant the second year. In the third year allow one stalk 
per plant to grow up, cut all others as soon as they ap¬ 
pear above the ground. Cultivate occasionally. Plant 
1 ft. apart in the row, the rows 3 ft. apart. 
PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS 
Planting instructions as given under fruit trees also apply to Nut trees. It must be mentioned, however, that Nut trees have very 
few fiber roots and the tendency of the root is that it grows straight down into the sub-soil. Therefore, it is always a good plan 
to dig or bore with a post auger from the center of the bottom of planting hole for an additional depth of 18 Inches or better, 
which allows the root of a nut tree to develop into the sub-eoil layers.
