Easy to grow. The New Hybrid varieties of blueberries are easy to grow. Simply 
set them about 5 feet apart. Moist soil is O.K. but with mulching 
they will thrive on high, dry land of most any type. 
Blueberries do best in acid soil. Peat moss, rotted leaves, 
sawdust, woodland soil, aluminum, sulphate, or rotted logs will 
supply the acid. About one-third bushel of Peat Moss, 
Woodland soil, sawdust, rotted leaves or logs, mixed with 
two-thirds soil should be placed in the holes around the 
roots when set. 
Two varieties must be planted to pollinate. 
One variety planted alone would not bear, hence we do 
not accept orders for only one variety. 
THREE PROVEN VARIETIES 
After years of experimenting and scientific testing we 
find the three following varieties to be the BEST. And they 
will thrive and bear fine fruit in all sections of the U.S.A. 
You are sure of success when you plant Rancocas, Rubel and 
Jersey. : ?

up, lots of them, for almost 3 months. They are extremely tender and

delicious flavor. Rust-proof and will last a lifetime. Very easy to grow.

for $1.00; 25 for $1.85; 100 for $6.50. If interested in more than 100, 
write for special prices. 
CULTURAL DIRECTIONS 
Plant Asparagus Crowns in a furrow 6 to 10 
inches deep, and space the roots 12 to 18 inches 
apart in the row. Rows should be 8 to 4 feet } 
apart. When the plants are set, cover only about 
2 inches deep. As they grow, work more dirt to 
them until the furrow is filled. This gets the 
crowns down deep, so they will not be injured by 
cutting. Allow the plants to fern (grow tall tops) 
each Summer and Fall, to permit them to re- # 
cuperate and be ready for cutting the follow- 
ing Spring. 













up. and down. Leave the top of the root about one 
inch below the surface. Every garden should have 
horseradish, very profitable as a commercial crop. 
Crowns will make big roots in one year. 
Crowns, 2 for 25c; 6 for 70c; 10 for $1.00.
