START A BED 
THIS SPRING 
ORDER AT ONCE 
Good Asparagus roots 
are not too plentiful 
this Spring 
Plant in rows two feet apart, the 
plants one foot apart in the rows. 
Prepare a place of fine loamy soil 
to which has been added a liberal 
dressing of rich manure. For’each 
row of plants dig a trench the 
width and depth of a spade. The 
plants are then set in the bottom 
of the trench at the proper dis- 
tance, care being taken to pro- 
perly spread the roots. The crown 
or top of the plant should then 
be covered with about three 
inches of soil that has been mixed 
with a quantity of well rotted 
stable manure. As the new shoots 
burst through the soil, more soil 
should be added until the entire 
trench has been filled. The bed 
should be manured freely each 
Fall. An Asparagus Bed will 
last and produce good results for 
at least twenty years. Now if 
you have decided to try it, plant 
the BEST VARIETY AND 
THAL IS— 
MARY WASHINGTON 
THE VARIETY FOR 
YOU TO PLANT 
There is no variety of Asparagus 
as good as the Washington and 
no strain of the Washington as 
good as the Mary. Mary Wash- 
ington is the only asparagus 
worth planting and in our opin- 
ion it will soon be the only as- 
paragus planted. Plant our extra 
large 1 year old crowns and order 
now under this guarantee. If 
upon receipt of shipment you 
find the plants are not the finest 
and largest 1 year Asparagus you 
have ever seen, wrap them up 
and return to us and we will re- 
fund your money without ques- 
tion, quibble, or controversy. 

PRICE: $5.00 per 100; $45 pex 
1000; 500 or more plants at 

For the home or market, it stands ahead of all others in size, vigor, tenderness, and quality.

G R A fe = Ss os BIG, JUICY GRAPES FOR DELICIOUS GRAPE 
JUICE, WINE, JELLY, OR EATING FRESH 
Nothing quite so sure to grow, nothing quite so sure to bear, nothing quite so sure to please every 
taste. Nothing unusual for these large plants to fruit first year planted. Planted this Spring should 
produce fruit first season. Extra large, extra old, extra fine 3-yr.-old plants that should fruit next fall. 
Planted wherever you can find a spot 6 inches square. It has its likes, but never insists on them. With its roots in any 
odd nook you can lead it away in any direction to provide a grateful shade for a restful seat. 




Wherever you go, north, east, south, 
and west, whether on hill or in valley, 
on poor soil or rich, you will find the 
grape generously giving of its bounty 
and loyal to its master whether he give 
it care or neglect.
