CURRIE BROTHER S CO., MILWAUKEE, WIS. Page 75. PARSNIP 1 oz. to 150 feet of drill; 4 lbs. per acre. Sow the seed after the ground is warm in well enriched soil that has previously been thoroughly pulverized, placing the seed about half an inch deep in rows fif- teen to eighteen inches apart. Thin out to four to six inches apart in the rows. The roots are improved by leaving them in the open ground over winter, taking the precaution to draw a little soil over the rows before hard frost sets in.

GUERNSEY (Improved Half-long)—The roots are not as long as the old Hollow Crown but thicker and easier harvested. The roots are smooth, flesh fine grained and of splendid quality. It is a heavy cropper. Pkt., 5c; 1 oz., 15c; '/4 lb., 30c; 1 lb., 85c. LONG SMOOTH (Hollow Crown)—A large cropper; sweet and tender. Pkt., 5c; 1 oz., 15c; y4 lb., 30c; 1 lb., 75c. PARSLEY 1 oz. to 150 feet of drill. Sow the seed in rows 1 foot apart, covering it about an eighth of an inch in rich soil as early in the spring as the ground can be worked. It germinates best when the ground is cool and moist. Thin the plants when about 2 inches high to 4 inches apart in the row. For winter use transplant to a cold frame or box and place in a light cellar. CHAMPION MOSS CURLED—A vigorous variety with dark green, moss-like leaves.
