Grapes 
For Your Home Planting 
Fresh grapes, like the berries, will give more satisfac- 
tion than you can imagine when you have the finest 
of bushes in your own garden. They can be trellissed 
to take up little room, only a narrow row. All grapes 
do well here, and they should be set about six feet 
apart. The plants we offer are strong and well 
rooted, and in two years should start bearing a small 
crop. Plant several varieties and have delicious grapes 
throughout the summer. They are sold bare-root, as 
long as the supply holds out, through January, 
February, March and early April. 
We will have other varieties of berries and grapes, 
_including those which have proved their worth especial- 
ly in Southern California. So if your favorites are not 
listed, be sure to ask us about them.

Perennial Vegetables 
RHUBARB 
Easily grown, and three husky plants such as we 
offer will supply an average family with enough good 
rhubarb for sauce and pies. A few more plants will 
make it possible to can enough for use at all sea- 
sons of the year. They will increase in size and 
quantity year after year, and should be allowed to 
grow for a year before cutting the stalks. Plant the 
crowns about three feet apart. 
CHERRY. Good quality, large bright red stalks.

ASPARAGUS 
In a few years the strong root divisions we offer 
will provide all the fine asparagus you need for your 
table use. Plant six inches deep in well pulverized 
soil, and do not cut the young fern-like stems for 
the first two years. 
PARADISE. Large stalks, thick and green. Produces 
good crops in the home garden. 
MARY WASHINGTON. Early variety, with crisp 
and tender stalks, and excellent tender tips. 
ARTICHOKES 
FRENCH GREEN GLOBE. The most popular variety, 
with buds of fine flavor. Easy to grow, and they 
thrive almost anywhere. Plant six feet apart and 
give summer water. After they grow to good size 
cut back each year in September for new growth to 
begin for next season. Also a fine ornamental, with 
blue- green foliage. The buds form and are eaten, 
and if allowed to blossom, they provide pretty large 
blue flowers. 
HORSERADISH 
Give these plants plenty of water, and you will be 
rewarded with large-sized roots of excellent quality. 
Useful for sauces and pickles. 

if the supply lasts, many perennial vegetables and 
deciduous items may be purchased later in the year 
in cans at slightly higher prices.
