Rhubarb 
New varieties have greatly increased the popu- 
larity of rhubarb and justly so. It is high in 
vitamin C and appreciated especially early in the 
spring. These new ones are good all summer, 
even better. Makes the nicest shortcake, jelly, 
sauce and juice. Requires less sugar than older 
varieties. 
Canada Red—Stalks are deep red all the way 
through and have a milder flavor. Each 75 cents, 
3 for $2.00. 
Valentine—One of the newest and some say the 
_ best. Entirely red stalk all the way through. The 
best for freezing. Each $1.00. 
McDonald—Red skin stalks, green inside, a great 
favorite. Each 50 cents. 
Asparagus 
This is one of the best and cheapest foods that 
can be grown. PARADISE is the best and newest 
variety; 12 for 75 cents, 25 for $1.25; 100 for $4, 
postpaid. 
Raspberries 
Are Easy to Grow 
Raspberries are easy to grow. The main trouble is 
that they grow too much. It is important to keep 
down the surplus plants. A row _ should not be 
allowed to get over 18 inches wide, and leave 
only about four canes to the running foot. 
We have discontinued the Chief red raspberry 
because of low yield. The black raspberries are 
too subject to disease. 
Latham—The most widely planted, large ber- 
ries, heavy yielding.

Sunrise is a new variety. Ripens about 10 days 
ahead of Latham. It has a smaller and higher 
quality berry. It is inclined to be over ambitious 
in plant making. Prices same as Latham. 
Minnesota 352—Looks very promising as an ear- 
ly variety. Large berries on a strong cane, Ten 
for $1.50. Postpaid.
