This vegetable is rich in vita- 
mins, which are so essential to 
health, and especially to the de- 
velopment of children. The Aspara- 
gus roots should be planted in well- 
prepared beds, the soil of which has 
been enriched by liberal quantities 
of well-rotted manure. This is one 
of the earliest of vegetables, the 
shoots coming out before the frost 
is hardly out of the ground. Set 
plants 12 inches apart in rows 30 
inches apart, or 18 inches each way.

ly colored, attractive red stalk, of large 
size, productive, very tender and succu- 
lent, and of excellent quality. Particu- 
larly valuable for pies and desserts. Its 
color, when cooked without peeling, is as 
attractive as that of raspberries. 
RED RUBY. A new Red Rhubarb intro- 
duced from Canada. The stalks are in- 
tensely red. Even the inside of the stalk 
is red. Rhubarb sauce made from Ruby 
is as red as strawberry sauce. The skin 
is so tender that it can be cooked with 
the stalk.

variety, best for general planting, 
and the market gardener’s choice.

attractive stalks. You can sell as
