A Delicious, Easily Grown Vegetable! 
Many people who enjoy the delicious flavor of fresh or frozen broccoli do not realize 
how easy it is to grow. Simply sow the seed in the open ground in May and when the 
plants are large enough, transplant into the garden about 214 feet apart each way. 
The large center head develops first, and after this is cut, the plant forms numerous 
branch heads which can be used later. A few plants provide a continuous supply 
throughout the season. Very profitable for market and roadside stands as the yield is 
large and broccoli nearly always sells for good prices. 
232 DeCICCO. The Earliest Good Broccoli. 60 days. Broccoli has become such a 
popular vegetable that this early strain is a welcome addition to most gardens. It is 
ready to eat a week or ten days ahead of Italian Green Sprouting, and the sturdy, 
light green plants produce good big center heads and quantities of side shoots that 
are delicious fresh and adapted for freezing. DeCicco has proved to be the earliest 
strain of real value yet developed.

CHINESE CABBAGE A packet will sow about 40 
ft. of row, an ounce 300 ft, 
Also Called ‘‘Celery Cabbage”’ 
The flavor of Chinese Cabbage is more delicate than regular cabbage 
and the tender crisp heads make delicious salad or coleslaw. The leaves 
may be cooked separately like spinach or the midribs alone used and 
served like asparagus. 
If sown early it runs to seed, so do not plant before the first of July. 
Plant in the open ground in rows 24 ft. apart and thin to 18 in. 
282 MICHIHLI. The Finest Strain. 
80 days. This new type closely resembles the standard Chihli but is

heads evenly, growing about 18 inches tall and 3% to 4 inches thick.

long heads tapering at the top. Blanching pure white inside, they are 
tender, crisp and sweet with an agreeably spicy flavor. 
Michihli is sure-heading and will remain in prime condition for a 
long time. Market growers on muck or upland find these long attrac- 
tive heads sell readily and home gardeners appreciate its wonderful 
quality. Pkt. 15¢e; 4% Oz. 30c; Oz. 50c; 144 Lb. $1.25; Lb. $2.75.

Catskill—Particularly delicious in late fall. 
B R U Ss Ss i L S Ss P R oO U T Packet produces about 
250 plants, an oz. 3000, 
This delicious vegetable has long been a favorite, but before our Catskill 
strain was introduced it was not considered easy to grow. Now 
“Sprouts”? are as dependable and simple as late cabbage to produce, 
very profitable for market and a delightful fall and winter vegetable 
for the home garden. 
The plants are set out like cabbage and the sprouts that grow on the 
stem picked off as wanted. Sprouts are of better quality after having 
been frozen, so the plants may be left in the open ground until nearly 
December in the North and all winter south of New Jersey. If the 
plants are pulled and stored in a cool, not too dry place, you can have 
delicious sprouts for weeks longer. 
236 CATSKILL. The Best Variety. 
90 days. To enjoy the unusual, delicate’ flavor of Brussels Sprouts 
plant Catskill, for this strain of our introduction will produce first class 
sprouts even when other varieties fail. It was developed by us from 
the best private strain in the Catskill Mountain region, which is famous 
for its fine sprouts and we have selected and improved it for years, 
until now it is so much superior to all other kinds that there is no 
comparison. 
The plants are dwarf and compact, and they produce an abun- 
dance of large, firm, dark green sprouts of the finest quality. They are 
bigger and better and much easier to pick than the old kinds, and are 
the best for market and home use. mu ou
