WOOD’S SEEDS ARE TESTED 2" we know that they 
= will grow before they are 
Sent out. Even then they occasionally do not come up, due to 
causes over which *ve have no control, such as covering too deep- 
ly or not deeply enough; too little or too much moisture, cold 
weather, insects, or a crust through which the sprouts cannot 
penetrate, ete.; therefore, T. W. Wood & Sons give no warranty, 
expressed or implied, as to description (variety, name and kind), 
quality, productiveness or any other matter of any seeds, bulbs 
or plants they send out, and will not be in any way responsible

sued to aid our customers in selecting the varieties to plant. The

give a good application of stable manure. Early in the spring fork 
this in and apply ground animal bone. To make white asparagus, 
draw earth around the stalks as they grow. Do not con ue cut-
