MANGEL-W URZEL 
Six pounds will sow an acre 
Mangel-Wurzels are invaluable for feeding 
stock. In May or June sow the seed in drills not 
less than 2 feet apart and later thin out so the

As they grow to an immense size, a deep soil 
that has been well enriched with stable manure 
is best suited for their culture.

One ounce will produce 3,000 plants 
Italian Green Sprouting. A very useful variety adapted for growing in spring, 
summer, or fall, resembling cauliflower only in shape or formation, as the color 
is dull bluish green. For early use, seed may be sown in hotbeds during March 
and later transplanted outdoors in rows 2 feet apart and 18 inches apart in the 
row. After the central head is cut, the plant produces many branches, each 
terminating in smaller heads which are equally as desirable as the larger head. 
Served in the same way as asparagus, they form a very tasty and nourishing 
dish. Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 50 cts., 14lb. $1.50.

One ounce will produce 3,000 plants 
For early fall use sow seed outdoors in May and during July set plants every 
18 inches in rows 2 feet apart. Later sowings may be made in June. The sprouts 
are far superior in flavor to either cabbage or kale, es- 
pecially after a hard frost, and from June sowings will 
be ready for use during the early part of October. Be- 
eee one and two quarts is the average yield of one 
plant.

The Chervil resembles the parsley in appearance, and

meats and vegetables. Seed may be sown early in spring, 
but when the plants are quite large they should be 
transplanted about 10 inches apart.

CHICORY 
One ounce will sow 100 feet of drill 
The seed may be sown in drills 1 foot apart as early 
in the spring as the ground can be worked. When the 
plants are 3 to 4 inches high they should be thinned out 
so that they stand 5 inches apart. When grown in the 
home-garden Chicory should be blanched similar to 
celery. It is grown differently by market-gardeners who 
sow the seed in August for use the following spring 
when the leaves are cut off and bunched in the green 
state.
