Our Rhubarb Roots Are Disease And Pest Free 51 
NEW RED EVERBEARING RHUBARB 
MacDonald 
Rhubarb 

MACDONALD is the finest of all Rhubarb. The stalks 
are giant in size, twice as large as ordinary Rhubarb. 
Bright red color. Very tender and stays tender a long 
time. It has the richest flavor and also more sugar, 
therefore requires less sweetening when cooked. It 
makes the finest Rhubarb pies and sauce you ever 
tasted. The skin is a bright red, but the inside flesh 
is white, so when the sauce is cooked it has just enough 
tinge of red to make it look appetizing. It is a tremendous 
yielder, that is why we call it everbearing, because as fast 
as you pull one stalk another comes up to take its place. 
You can use it over a much longer period of time than or- 
dinary Rhubarb. The stalks are 18 to 24 inches long, many 
half as thick as your wrist. Nothing you can plant in your 
garden will give you more returns than MacDonald Rhu- 
barb. We recommend it very highly, not only because it is 
healthful, but because it tastes so good. Lasts a lifetime.

New Paradise Asparagus 
MATURES A YEAR EARLIER—PLANT THIS SPRING 
HARVEST FIRST CROP NEXT YEAR! 
For this year we offer this wonderful new variety from the market 
gardens of Oalifornia—where only the best is grown. Again we pre- 
dict that within a very short time Paradise will have supplanted all 
other kinds, and will be the standard market and commercial va- 
riety in all sections. It is similar in appearance to Mary Washington, 
and was developed as a sport of that variety by an Asparagus grower 
in Southern Oalifornia. Stems are large, same color as Mary Wash- 
ington, and equally resistant to rust. 
The opportunities for a quick profit from Paradise are now greater 
than ever before. With America calling for increased production of 
all food stuffs, canners are demanding greater and greater supplies. 
Paradise fully meets their requirements, being especially suitable for 
both canning and freezing under new process.

GIANT VICTORIA—Providing the first fresh 
fruit for pies and dessert in the spring. A few 
Rhubarb plants along one side of the garden will 
prove a real blessing. Don’t confuse the new 
Giant Victoria with the old ‘‘pie plant’’ as this 
new variety really has a delicious peachy flavor. 
Plant it this spring and cut big, tender, pink and 
juicy stalks next spring. 25 roots will supply a 
big family the year around.
