PUMPKINS 
A packet will plant 5 or 6 hills; an ounce 20 hills. 
A few hills of pumpkins in the garden will give you the ““makins”’ of many delicious pies in the fall and 
winter. If you grow your own you can get pumpkins of a quality that is impossible to match in the com- 
mercial canned product, and at very small cost. If your garden is small, a few hills among the sweet corn 
will not take up any extra ground.

RHUBARB or Pieplant 
Rhubarb is very easy to produce from roots set out early in the spring. Space the roots 4 ft. 
apart each way as they make a large vigorous growth. Plant the crowns one or two inches below 
the surface. For best results, use plenty of manure or fertilizer worked into the soil and keep moist. 
Some stalks may be pulled off and eaten the first summer from roots set in the spring. 
MACDONALD. (New.) Roots only. This variety is now generally recognized as the best 
red rhubarb obtainable. The stalks are very large and become a bright 
crimson color. They are tender, of excellent flavor and when cooked they make a beautiful deep 
pink sauce. The plant is high yielding, strong and robust, and produces the finest thick stalks. 
We offer roots only of this variety. Although MacDonald sometimes puts up a seed stalk 
the seeds do not develop, and it can be propagated only by dividing the roots. This non-seeding 
tendency means that edible stalks may be pulled nearly all summer, which is a great advantage 
over the older kinds. 
Root divisions: Ea. 75c; 3 for $1.75; 10 for $4.50 transportation paid.
