NEW PARADISE ASPARAGUS 
Matures a Yeor Earlier—Plant This Spring—Harvest First Crop Next Year! 
For the third year we offer this wonderful new variety from the market 
gardens of California—where only the best is grown. Again we predict that 
within a very short time Paradise will have supplanted all other kinds, and 
will be the standard market and commercial variety in all sections. It is similar 
in appearance to Mary Washington, and was developed as a sport of that 
variety by an Asparagus grower in Southern California. Stems are large, same 
color as Mary Washington, and equally resistant to rust. Six to eight stalks 
average a full pound. 
Our plants are all of our own growing—an extra heavy yielding strain— 
from seed bought direct from the introducer in California. 
The opportunities for a quick profit from Paradise are now greater than ever 
before. With America calling for increased production of all food stuffs, can- 
ners are demanding greater and greater supplies. Paradise fully meets their 
requirements, being especially suitable for both canning and freezing under

RHUBARB 
RED RUBY 4 wonderful new Rhubarb in- 
troduced from Canada. The 
stalks are intensely red, as the name implies 
—even the inside of the stalk is red. The 
skin is so tender that it can be cooked with 
the stalk. A money-maker on any market be- 
cause it sells on sight at a premium. Ruby 
cannot be grown from seed, and is therefore 
than an inch in diameter; crisp 
and delicious. There is no waste 
with Mary Washington—every 
tip is healthy and usable. 





























more expensive to propagate; but it’s well 
worth the price we're asking. 
RED MacDONALD [be last word in 
Rhubarb. Prof. L. G. 
Bunting, of MacDonald College, in Quebec, 
Canada, where it originated, states: “It is a 
very highly colored, attractive red stalk, of 
large size, productive, very tender, and of ex- 
cellent quality, and particularly valuable for pies 
and desserts. Its color, when cooked without 
peeling, is as attractive as that of raspberries.’’ 
MYATT'S LINNAEUS ost commonly 
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 re- 
sults. 
HORSERADISH 
Very easily produced 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 
prepared. A half-dozen roots are sufficient for a 
moderate supply, while a dozen will generously 
cover the requirements for the average family. 

BROAD-LEAF SAGE 
(Salvia officinalis) The most popular of all culin- 
ary herbs. A few plants in the garden will furnish 
an ample supply for the average family. Quality 
and flavor of home dried leaves far superior to the 
packaged product usually available. Strong, field- 
grown plants, 30c each; 3 for 75c; 10 for $2.25.
