A packet of seed will sow about 25 feet 
of row; an ounce 150 feet. 
PARSNIP 
This fine vegetable should be in every home garden. A few rows will 
supply the needs of a family. After the first freezing weather, they can 
be dug and stored in a pit outdoors or in moist dirt in a cool cellar. 
They will be a welcome addition to the winter vegetables. Try some 
“‘Hrench fried’’ parsnips, they are delicious. Sow seed in May in rows 
2 feet apart in finely pulverized soil and cover the seed not more than 
14 in. deep. Thin the plants to 4 inches apart. 
640 HARRIS’ MODEL. The Smoothest, Whitest Parsnip. 
120 days. These parsnips are medium length, very smooth, and re- 
markably free from small roots or prongs. Harris’ Model has a well- 
deserved reputation for being whiter than any other parsnips. This 
and their smoothness make them very attractive for the home garden 
and more saleable in the market. Our seed is carefully grown from se- 
lected transplanted roots on our own farm. You will find these very 
superior parsnips. Pkt. 15c; Oz. 35c; 44 Lh. $1.00. 
641 ALL-AMERICA (New). 105 days. High quality kind, noted for its 
ability to make large diameter at the shoulder early. Shorter than 
Model, quite tapered, smooth and white. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 30c; 14 Lb. 90c.

ONION SETS 
1 Ib. will set 75 to 100 feet of row, depending upon the size of the sets. 
Every garden can produce good onions from sets. Planted in the 
early spring, they make delicious little green onions in a few weeks and 
by the first of July they make nice cooking onions. Two or three weeks 
later they become large ripe onions which can be stored for some time. 
Set out about 2 inches apart and covered an inch deep. 
For economical use of ground in the garden try planting them about 
one inch apart in rows. Pull every other one for green onions in the 
spring and leave the rest for boiling onions. This will give you a 
continuous supply throughout the summer.

ONION PLANTS 
SWEET SPANISH— Utah Strain 
For the largest, mildest and sweetest onions, grow Harris’ Sweet Spanish plants. Delicious to 
eat as early green onions, they make beautiful mild sweet ‘“‘jumbos’’ when allowed to ripen. 
Store them in a cool dry place and they will keep for months. 
These are the onions the market wants—easily grown on muck or upland, they often bring 
twice the price of ordinary bulbs. We offer only the true mild yellow Sweet Spanish, Utah 
Strain, the finest and heaviest yielding variety. Onions weighing a pound or more are not 
unusual with these plants. 
Now shipped by chartered plane direct to us from our Texas grower, these plants arrive 
in fresh vigorous condition. Order early and set them out early—the sooner you plant the 
better the crop. The plants can be held for some time if your land is not ready when they 
come. Space the plants 4 to 5 in. in rows 18 in. apart. 
Sold by the bunch only—the count may vary from 55 to 110 or more per bunch depending on the 
size. Available from about April 15th to May 10th. Shipped only east of the Mississippi and north of
