All Prices Postpaid Unless Otherwise Noted. 








CULTURE: Lighter type of soil 
seems to produce the best crop. Seed 
should be started in hot beds or cold 
frames and transplanted to the open 
as early in May as is possible. 
Should be set out in rows 2 feet apart 
and 20 inches apart in the row. Pep- 
pers require good soil. Some very 
rich fertilizer stirred into the soil 
when the plants are about 6 inches 
high, will be found very beneficial to 
the crop.

PARSNIPS 
CULTURE: Parsnips grow best in a loose, 
rich sandy loam, but will make good roots in 
any soil that is reasonably rich and deep. 
Stony soil and raw manure are likely to pro- 
duce branched or misshapen roots. The seed 
Tequires steady, abundant moisture for germi- 
nation and should be sown as early as prac- 
ticable. Sow in rows 2 to 2Y2 feet apart and 
when well up, thin to about 5 inches apart in 
the row. Keep the ground moist if possible, 
Parsnips are improved by freezing, and a por- 
tion of the crop can be left in the ground all 
winter to be used as a spring vegetable.
