Dunlap is the old standby especially for home planting. It is 
satisfactory under a wide range of conditions while other much praised 
kinds may be better in limited places only. Plants are usually in 
prime condition for digging here about the second week in April.

freely produce large fruit of good quality.

ASPARAGUS 
Asparagus is one of the first spring vegetables ready to use and 
one of the most wholesome. Plant it along the fence or border where 
a heavy application of barnyard fertilizer can be easily applied after 
the cutting season. The growing plants are attractive and fit well 
into the home planting. Do not cut the first year, nor continuously 
after June Ist so the plants can store up a reserve for the next spring.

A very superior variety, fine quality, rust resistant, and enormously 
productive. 
RHUBARB 
Rhubarb should be given the richest soil and a location where it 
need not be disturbed for a long time. Each fall apply rotted cow 
manure or other fertilizer. No other plant will produce so much 
wholesome food and with so little attention as do these new kinds. 
We now offer only the new Canadian varieties and at prices cheap 
enough that one cannot afford to grow the old kinds which require 
so much sugar. The new kinds are mild enough to save the cost of 
the plants over and over requiring so much less sugar. They can be 
used throughout the season and are the very best substitute for fruit, 
never being completely destroyed by a late freeze as the fruit crop 
occasionally is. Do not use from a young plant till it is established 
and builds up a reserve. 
These varieties do not go to seed and ripen up like the old kinds, 
but continue to grow and are usable thru the whole summer.
