In addition to creating new and better types at our breeding stations, a continuous program of pure-line breeding is carried on, so that Asgrow stocks of standard varieties may be maintained at their best. In listing the number of days from planting to marketable condition, we have used the average results secured over a period of years. These figures apply to plantings under normal conditions, and will vary somewhat in different sections of the country. However, the number of days indicated will serve to show the relative maturity of the different varieties.
