HORSE RADISH 
Every garden should have a few plants of Horse Radish. Grown 
from sets or piece-roots. Set them vertically, small end down, and 
the large end one to three inches below the surface of the soil. Cul- 
tivate until tops cover the ground. 
BOHEMIAN GIANT. An improved, mammoth-rooted variety of 
excellent quality. Piece-roots planted this spring will make good 
roots by fall. (10 for 65c) (25 for $1.45) (50 for $2.50) (100 for 
$4.00) (500 for $15.00) (1000 for $25.00) prepaid. 
ASPARAGUS 
A Good Source of Vitamin C. An ounce of seed will produce about 
250 plants. 2 Ibs. will produce enough roots to set an acre. 
MARY WASHINGTON (Rust-Resistant). An excellent variety of 
Asparagus for either the home garden or market. A rapid growing 
sort, yielding thick, long, straight stalks, and when overgrown is 
perfectly tender. Practically immune to “rust” and other Asparagus 
diseases. (Pkt. 10e) (oz. 25c) (% Ib. 75c) (Ib. $2.25) (5 Ibs. $8.75) 
(10 Ibs. $15.00) prepaid. 
PARADISE (Rust-Resistant). Similar to Mary Washington, but 
earlier, more productive and larger. Only 7 or 8 stalks required to 
the pound. Even though this variety is giant in size, it is crisp, 
tender and fine flavored. If you want-only one variety this should 
be it. (Pkt. 15c) (oz. 45c) (1% Ib. $1.35) (Ib. $4.00) prepaid. 
ASPARAGUS PLANTS 
We supply choice one-year-old plants, which is the age we recom- 
mend, for in addition to costing less than two-year-old plants, they 
come into bearing just as soon and are a more satisfactory size for 
transplanting. Asparagus plants should be set 18 inches apart.

GARLIC SETS. 
Hardy Perennial Garlic 
Hungarian Garlic has the same uses as the Mexican 
Red Garlic or California White Garlic offered in most 
grocery stores, but is better suited to the average gar- 
den. The bulbs are of high quality and preferred by 
many to the more common sorts, even though they are - 
a little smaller. The bulbs are perfectly winter-hardy in 
the North and may be dug from the garden as needed 
or stored for winter use. Unlike the other varieties they 
are grown from small sets produced atop the stem, like 
the Egyptian Multiplier Onions. Each package contains 
enough sets to plant 12 to 15 ft. of row. (25c¢ per pkt.) 
(3 pkts. for 60c) prepaid. 
CHIVE S (Schnittlauch) 
A hardy perennial onion-like plant. Highly esteemed 
for use as a salad, and for their small leaves which are 
produced very early in the spring and are used for giv- 
ing a mild onion flavor to various dishes. Frequent cut- 
tings may be made throughout the season, a new growth 
of leaves appearing soon after each cutting. A supply 
may be had all winter by potting a few plants and tak- 
ing them inside before freezing. (Pkt. (5c) (44 oz. 55ce) 
(oz. $1.00) prepaid. 
PLANTS (3 for 75c) (6 for $1.35) (12 for $2.50) 
prepaid. 
SAGE, HOLT'S MAMMOTH ~ 
Produces larger leaves and better quality than as 
common garden sage. It does not produce seed. ars” ‘ 
only—(50c each) (3 for $1.25) (6 for 2. 30) G2 for
