18-24 inches apart in the row Cheap quick pas- 
turage for poultry and all livestock. Ready in 6 
weeks. 
Dwarf Essex—42 Days. One of the very best 
plants for pasturing cattle, sheep and swine.

will be ready within six weeks, but in any event, 
in eight or nine weeks. As rape thrives best in 
cool weather, plant early in the Spring or late 
in the Autumn. 
Pordtedi Rhucbart 
or Pie Plant 
One ounce will plant 75 ft. of row. Sow the seed 
early in the Spring in rows 18 inches apart; thin 
the seedlings to 7—12 inches apart in the row. The 
follawing Spring transplant to a permanent loca- 
tion, spacing them 2-4 ft. apart. Cover with 4 
inches of soil. It is very easy to grow your own 
rhubarb roots from seed. Healthy, strong, excel- 
lent roots can be grown in one year. The second 
and succeeding years they will produce an abund- 
ance of rhubarb equal to any grown from roots. 
Roots grown from our seed have never been 
known to be diseased. Always hardy, and of 
strong growth. 
Linnaeus—Stalks grow very large and are light 
green and scarlet in color. 
Victoria—Immense, long and thick cherry-red 
stalks. Very tender. A superior variety. 

One ounce will sow 100 ft. of row; 10-12 lbs. to 
the acre. Rows should be 12-15 inches apart and 
sow % in. deep. To insure well shaped radishes 
the ground should be finely pulverized and only 
well rotted manure or fertilizer used. Fresh man- 
ure-will ruin the crop. First sowings are made as 
soon as the ground can be worked as radishes 
are hardy, then successive sowings should be 
made up to hot weather. To avoid pithiness the 
crop should be grown quickly and pulled when 
mature. If planted too deep, radishes usually 
grow too long. Use short top varieties in hot 
beds.
