PARSNIPS 
CULTURE — Same as carrots, except time of 
planting, which should be about May lst. 
PRICES, UNLESS NOTED (Seed of our own 
growing) — Postpaid. Pkt. 10c; oz. 35c; 14 Ib. 70c; 
Ib. $1.50. 
*GILL’S SUCCESS — Longer roots than the 
Tender Heart variety and better adapted to mar- 
ket purposes, as it is not so thick at the crown 
and will bunch better. The smooth, white roots 
cook tender and sweet. 
*GILL’S TENDER HEART — On account of 
the superior quality of this parsnip, our family 
has retained this seed annually for over 60 years. 
Unlike other parsnips, the heart is tender, never 
tough; roots are smooth, hollow crown, thick and 
heavy at top, tapering abruptly, making it easy 
to dig. An early sort good for early and late 
crops. We are the originator. Pkt. 10c; oz. 40c; 
1% Ib. 75c; Ib. $1.90. 
*HARRIS MODEL — Quite long, very smooth 
and white and remarkably free from small roots 
and prongs. Recommended for market gardeners 
who wish a long straight parsnip well suited for 
packing full length in lug boxes.

mild. Two weeks earlier than California Wonder. 
AVALON — A miniature sweet pepper of even

*ORANGE WINTER LUXURY — This im- 
proved strain of our own introduction is far bet- 
ter than the original. The skin, a rich golden 
orange, is covered with a fine netting, while the 
meat is very thick, fine grained and of rich gold- 
en yellow. It is by far the best pumpkin. Simply 
cook it done and it is ready for use in making 
pies. It requires less sugar and eggs than other 
varieties. Extra early and of medium flattened 
shape. A splendid keeper that has no equal in 
quality or appearance. Seed of our own growing. 
Not suited for Halloween use. 
CHEYENNE BUSH — A new variety of bush 
growth. This is valuable for home gardens where 
space is important. A little smaller than Winter 
Luxury but without nettings. It produces 3 or 4 
rich, golden pumpkins right around the crown 
of the plant. Fine quality. Pkt. 15c; oz. 35c; 
1% Vy. 85c; Ib. $2.50.

Rapa 
An Italian vegetable valuable for greens. Sow 
broadcast in mid-August for early fall use. Sown 
in mid-September, it provides fine greens very 
early in the spring. Foliage resembles turnips. The

fine, deep green buds. Both are cut for greens. 
If you like turnip greens, you will be pleased with 
this. Very nutritious and easy to grow. Pkt. 15c; 
oz. 35c; 1%4 Ib. 85c; Ib. $2.50.
