SPARAGUS ~ 
Save a Full Year — Plant This Spring — 
Harvest the Following Year! 
MATURES ONE YEAR EARLIER. Very large stalks of exception- 

ally fine quality;. unusually heavy producer. Here we have a 
better Asparagus that grows a larger crop a FULL YEAR 
EARLIER, and continues to bear heavier crops year after year. 
MORE PROFITS IN LESS TIME. The tender, crisp stalks 
are so large it takes only 6 to 8 to make a pound. As this variety 
matures ONE YEAR SOONER and produces larger stalks, this 
means larger returns each year and MORE PROFITS IN LESS. 
TIME. 
EXCELLENT VARIETY FOR FREEZING. Another point in 
its favor is the fact that it is an excellent variety for freezing. 
With the recent large increase in production and demand _ for 
asparagus throughout the country, one of the principal outlets for 
asparagus will be freezing it for the market. The far-sighted 
grower will take this important point into consideration in choos- 
ing the variety he will grow. He will choose PARADISE be- 
cause this variety is just as tender, green and fine flavored after 
freezing as it is a few hours after picking. 
For the home gardener it is the best possible variety to plant 
because the same space occupied will produce so much more, 
and better Asparagus. Paradise As 
paragus, like Mary Washington, is 
highly resistant to rust.

RHUBARB 
A new variety that is all red, exceptionally large stalks that 
are very tender and sweeter than common rhubarb ‘and 
requiring less sugar. Very fast grower—grows so rapidly that 
~ you can cut stalks from it a year sooner than you can from 
' the old style green-stalked varieties. The flavor and fibre of 
the stalk are excellent and when cooked the dish is of an 
attractive pink color. 
Plant some of this splendid Red Rhubarb this year. It 
yields heavily and lasts a lifetime. When once you have tried 
MacDonald, you will grow no other. We recommend this new 
variety most highly for both home and commercial planting. 
PRICE: Strong divisions, 35c each; 3 for $1.00; 6 for $1.80; 
12 for $3.25; 50 for $11.00.
