Thin the seedlings to stand 3 or 4 inches apart. Keep the soil loose and free from weeds. In fall or spring select the strong- est seedlings and set out permanently three feet apart each way. LINN/CUS. The earliest variety grown. Desirable for market or family garden1. Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c; J41b., 30c; lb., $ VICTORIA. Leaf stalks tall and large. Sometimes weighing 2 lbs. each. Skin thick and red stained. Pulp quite acid. Productive and profitable for market gardeners. Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c; #lb., 30c; lb., $ RHUBARB ROOTS When only a few plants are re- quired, we would suggest the pur- chase of roots instead of seed. From our medium size or large clumps, Rhubarb stalks can be cut the follow- ing season. The growth of the plant is very rapid from these clumps. A mulch of stable manure during the winter will insure their protection and stimulate stronger growth in the spring. Mailing size, each 15c, post- paid; clumps. See page 28. SORREL Sow thinly in shallow drills about one foot apart. Remove seed stalk8 as soon as formed. LARGE LEAVED FRENCH. Used for soups and salads. Its green leaves have a pleasant acid flavor. Pkt., 5c; oz., SWISS CHARD, LUCULLUS SALSIFY Or Vegetable Oyster Soil and culture should be the same as for parsnips, taking pains to make sowings as early as practicable each spring. Salsify is boiled like pars- nips or carrots, or is half-boiled and grated, then made into balls which are dipped into batter and fried like oysters. MAMMOTH SANDWICH ISLAND. A new and improved type, producing roots of nearly double the size and weight of the old sort, and in every way preferable. Much val- ued by market gardeners, as it grows stronger and is less inclined to branch. Pkt, 5c; oz., 15c; VAVo., 55c; lb., $ BL
