ASPARAGUS 
CULTURE—After soaking seed in warm water 1 to 2 hours, sow in drills about 18 inches apart during Spring or Fall. 
Thin plants out to 3 inches apart and give frequent thorough cultivation, keeping them free from weeds. The roots should 
be transplanted when 1 or 2 years old into a permanent bed of the richest soil you have. Open a trench 15 inches deep and 
put in 8 or 9 inches of well rotted manure; cover with 2 inches of soil; then place the roots 12 inches apart, with the crowns 
facing one way; cover with 4 inches of soil. The rows should be 5 feet apart. The growth should be cut in _the Fall after 
which a top dressing of stable manure should be applied, this to be worked into the soil very early the next Spring. — It is also 
advisable to sprinkle a little salt over the bed. Only light cuttings should be made the second year. After the cutting season 
is over, spray with a combination of Bordeaux and Arsenate of Lead to prevent rust and kill the Asparagus Beetle.

variety is especially adapted for market gardeners, as well
