Radish 
Improved Early Scarlet Globe: Vaughan’s Selected Stock. This 
is the standard red radish for hot bed and forcing use. Very early, 
crisp, mild and tender; rich, bright scarlet in color, of uniform 
globe shape. Our strain for forcing is bred with short tops for ease 
in bunching and is unequalled in the markets. Oz., 15c; 14 Ib., 35c; 
1 lb., 90c; 10 Ibs. or more, 85c per lb. 
Tomatoes for Forcing 
In the greenhouse each tomato plant should produce at least 18 
Ibs. of fruit to pay for space occupied. It is, therefore, important that 
only the heavy yielding sorts should be used. We have selected the 
best strains possible for production, quality and resistance to ver- 
ticillium wilt. 
Michigan State: Bred to meet conditions in Michigan where there 
is an excess of cloudy weather. A smooth red tomato and very 
productive. Pkt., 25c; 4% oz., 80c; 1 oz., $1.50.

spring producer. Pkt., 25c; 14 oz., 80c; 1 oz., $1.50.

MUSHROOMS GROWING FROM STERLIZED BOTTLE SPAWN 
Mushroom Spawn 
New Spore Culture: One brick will plant ten square feet. Price 
per brick (weight about | lb.) 35c; 5 bricks, $1.50; 10 bricks, $2.50; 
100 bricks, $18.00: No. 9 White Alaska Mammoth strain. A very 
popular sort with market growers. 
Sterilized Bottle Spawn: Under ideal conditions of temperature and 
moisture, loose or bottle spawn will start running sooner and give 
quicker results than the brick spawn. This spawn is made under 
glass jars under absoutely sterile conditions, so that every mold 
weed seed or insect is destroyed and each bottle contains nothing 
but pure spawn. Full directions on how to grow Mushrooms will 
be sent with each order. Price per dozen bottles, $7.50 not prepaid; 
per bottle, 75c; prepaid within third zone. One bottle covers 35 to 
40 square feet. Some of our florist customers have been putting 
Mushroom Spawn ona late bench of Mums. This gives them plenty 
for their own use and most times a large quantity to sell. This idea 
is well worth a try.

TOMATO MICHIGAN STATE 
Chives 
A perennial herb, a member of the onion family which every 
garden should grow. The slender, tubular leaves have a 
delicate onion flavor, just enough to season a green salad 
when the chopped-up leaves are used. The leaves are used 
for seasoning. The flowers are a beautiful lavender. Grow 
plants in paper pots for sale this winter, and to Victory 
gardeners for transplanting next spring. 
Pkt., 25c; % oz., 60c; | oz., $1.00. 
Onion Sets 
Egyptian or Red Perennial: For fall planting only. This 
variety never forms a large bulb; its value lies wholly in its 
special adaptability to produce green Onions for 
spring or fall use which are perfectly hardy and stay in 
the ground all the time. We sell in fall only, to be planted 
for early spring crop. Lb., 25c; 2 lbs., 45c; 5 Ibs., $1.00; 
10 Ibs., $1.75. 
Yellow Multipliers: Especially valuable for the first early 
spring bunch onion. They are very mild and sweet, far 
superior to the green onions from other sets. There are usually 
several stalks from a single bulb and in this way they are very pro- 
ductive. Their most important quality is their extreme earliness, 
being ready for eat- 
ing ahead of any 
other kind. Plant 
in fall and carry 
through winter as 
green onions witha 
straw mulch. Apply 
mulch immediately 
the ground is 
frozen, and remove 
it in the springs as 
soon as thawing 
begins, since the 
plants will start 
growth then. Lb.,
