This new variety was developed and introduced 
by the United States Department of Agriculture. 
Has proven to be superior to all other kinds—do 
not plant any other variety. It is rust-proof, is 
earlier, the stalks are larger, more tender, more 
productive; the heads are solid and compact; 
stalks are often more than an inch in diameter, 
crisp and delicious; commands a better price than 
the common sorts. There is no waste with Mary 
Washington for every tip is healthy and usable. 
Mary Washington Asparagus 
FOR GARDEN PLANTING 
The demand for this delicious early 
spring vegetable increases yearly. The 
large, tender, juicy, purplish green 
stalks are filled with health-giving vita- 
mines. Every one can eat and enjoy 
Asparagus regardless of age or health 
conditions. 
FOR FIELD PLANTING 
Start selling Asparagus before other 
crops are even planted. Ready for cut¬ 
ting in May and June in this latitude. 
Application of fertilizers will keep 
stalks tender long after the regular 
season. Always a sure money crop. 
RHUBARB 
Dstsl Dukw A wonderful new 
ivea IVUDy Rhubarb introduced 
from Canada. The stalks are in¬ 
tensely red, as the name implies— 
even the inside of the stalk is red. 
Rhubarb sauce made from Ruby is 
as red as strawberry sauce. The 
skin is so tender it can be cooked 
with the stalk. A money-maker on 
any market because it sells on sight 
at a premium over common Rhubarb. 
Ruby cannot be grown from seed, 
and is therefore more expensive to 
propagate; but it's well worth the 
price we're asking. Supply is limited 
this year, so order early. 
Red MacDonald f£ id Vsl 
word in Rhubarb. In describing this 
variety, Prof. L. G. Bunting, of Mac¬ 
Donald Collegre, in Quebec, Canada, 
where it originated, states: "It is a 
very highly colored, attractive red 
stalk, of large size, productive, very 
tender and succulent, and of excel¬ 
lent quality, and particularly valu¬ 
able for pies and desserts. Its color, 
when cooked without peeling, is as 
attractive as that of Raspberries." 
Try some this year. You'll Tike it. 
Myatf's Linnaeus 
ly planted Rhubarb today, and in 
our opinion by far the best of the 
common varieties. It is early, tender, 
without being in the least tough or 
stringy. Has a mild, sub-acid flavor. 
We offer only one size of roots, the 
best grade for quick planting results, 
and have it priced at an unusually 
low figure for good quality roots.

HORSERADISH 
This popular condiment is very easily pro¬ 
duced in the home garden, and anyone who has 
compared the freshly dug article with that sold 
over the counters can appreciate the value of 
the good, home-grown products so easily pre¬ 
pared. A half-dozen roots are sufficient for a 
moderate supply, while a dozen will generously 
cover the requirements for the average family. 
As it spreads quite rapidly, the source of supply 
is easily maintained.
