RED RHUBARB 
Stalks are not as large as Victoria 
but are extremely tender and are 
intensely red—even the inside of 
the stalk is red clear through. 
When cooked or canned it is as red 
as strawberry sauce. Mild and de- 
licious, requiring a minimum quan- 
tity of sugar. 
We have found this to be the finest 
of all of the Red Rhubarbs. Prices 
of roots: (75c each) (3 for $1.85) 
(6 for $3.45) (12 for $6.00) (25 for 
$10.00) prepaid.

Prices of 1 year old roots: (30c 
each) (3 for 60c) (6 for $1.00) (12 
for $1.85) (25 for $3.00) prepaid. 
We always recommend the plant- 
ing of Rhubarb roots instead of seed, 
but if seed is wanted, we can supply 
seed of Victoria at the following 
prices: (Pkt. 10c) (oz. 35¢) (4% lb.
