Some Favorites for the Food Garden 
We offer here a few important items for the food garden that we consider as best planted in the fall. Fall 
planting enables the plant stock to become established so that no time is lost in spring transplanting. 
In as- 
much as all of these items are very hardy, loss from winter killing is negligible, and should not be considered. 
Egyptian or Top Onion Sets ( Hardy ) 
Egyptian Onion Sets are planted to produce very early Spring Onions 
and Scallions. These sets are perfectly hardy in practically every sec- 
tion, and can be planted throughout the entire fall. They remain in 
the ground with practically no protection, and produce tender and 
tasty green Onions early in the spring. Price: 50c per quart, postpaid.

TWO WONDERFUL NEW RHUBARB 
VARIETIES 
Chipman’s Canada Red. The newest and finest Rhurarb. Very sweet 
and tender; of the finest flavor with extra large stalks. Bright red 
all the way through, the red color extending even to the mid-rib 
of the leaf. This variety retains its beautiful color in cooking, and 
both sauce and pies are an appetizing cherry-red color. This va- 
riety definitely does not go to seed during the summer, and, there- 
fore, can be used throughout the entire summer. Supply very 
limited. Price: $1.50 each; 4 for $7.00, postpaid. 
MacDonald. Stalks are tender, of unsurpassed flavor, and of a bright 
crimson. When cooked, the color is a beautiful shade of pink. 
High yield, strong and robust. MacDonald can be used all summer. 
Strong roots, 90c each; $10.00 per doz., postpaid. 
In our opinion these two varieties of Rhubarb preclude the neces- 
sity of planting any of the older varieties. We are discontinuing the 
listing of all older varieties in favor of these two which we consider the 
greatest advance in this line. Rhubarb should be planted four feet 
apart, and the crowns set so that they are covered 2 inches below the 
surface. 
Schling ’s Selected Peontes 
It is a known fact that the only time to plant Peonies for really good results the first year is in the autumn. 
It is advisable to cover the top eyes of these strong roots no more than two inches. Protection is rarely neces- 
sary, and, if used, should consist only of such covering as salt hay, leaves, or SANI-SOIL.

PESTEX—The Mole Repellent 
This great discovery has proven amazingly successful in repelling all 
destructive and bulb-loving rodents such as moles, field mice, squirrels, 
chipmunks, etc. 
Dust your bulbs thoroughly before planting. One pound is sufficient 
to treat 100 tulip bulbs or more and leave enough over to mix in the 
soil in order to make your bulb beds absolutely “pDest-proof.”” This 
product is non-poisonous and absolutely harmless to bulbs, roots and 
foliage. Price: 60c per Ib.; $4.50 per 10 Ibs., postpaid.
