ASPARAGUS

German, Spargel French, Asperge Spanish, Esparragos

One ounce for 60 feet of drill.

CULTURE.—Will require about 3 years from time of sowing
until the bed is in full bearing, but once established is good for
20 years. It should be sown in drills 1 foot apart, and when
the plants are 4 or 5 inches high they should be thinned out so
that the plants will be 9 inches apart from each other in all
the rows. Great care must be taken for the first year to
keep down all weeds. The deeper the soil and the more
Manure used the greater will be the crop.

CONOVER’S COLOSSAL.—The best known, and one of the

most desirable sorts, Pkt. 5c; oz. 15¢; 1% Ib. 20c; Ib. 60c.

German, Rofen-Kohl French, Chou de Bruxelles
Spanish, Berza de Brusels

One ounce will sow a bed of 40 square feet and produce
about 3,000 plants.

CULTURE.—This is a delicious vegetable, superior to either

A succession of sowings can be made from the first week in
May until September. These dates are for the latitude of New
York; farther south the sowing must be done earlier; farther
north, later. Plant in drills about 2 inches deep, and from 18
inches to 2 feet apart, according to the richness of the soil;

formed, according to the variety, from 3 to 4 feet apart. From
5 to 6 seeds are planted in each hill, about 2 inches deep.
As the matured Bean is used mostly, the season is too short

for succession crops in the North, though it is advantageous

to plant succession crops in the Southern States, where the

season of growth if often from March to November. Rough F
cedar or similar poles about 7 or S$ feet high should be

used for Lima Beans to climb on. They should be set in

the ground at least 18 inches, so as to prevent being blown

equal in quality and easier to prepare than spinach, and far superior to
beets. Sow early in Spring, in rows 16 inches apart, and thin out to 6
inches apart in the rows. It can be used all Summer when spinach is
not available. Later the leaves grow very large, with broad, flat, pure
white stems, and mid-ribs, which may be cooked like Asparagus or made
into very good pickles. As it grows, thin out for use and keep clear of
weeds. Good cultivation increases the tenderness of the leaves.

trenches. Earth up a little during the summer, keeping the leaf stalks close together,
so that the soil cannot get between them. Finish earthing up in autumn, and never
hoe or earth up in moist weather, nor when the plants are moistened with dew.

To preserve Celery for winter, dig trenches 1 foot in width and as deep as the tops
of the plants. Stand the Celery in these, erect as they grew, with what dirt adheres
to the roots, packing closely, but not crowding. After the trench is filled it should
be covered with straw or leaves as a protection from frost. Do not cover until
the weather becomes quite cold, and then only a little at a time, as the cold becomes
greater. Celery will bear a good deal of frost. The trench must have good drainage.

CULTURE.—A variety of Celery with turnip-shaped rocts,
which are white-fleshed, comparatively tender, and have the
flavor of celery stalks. The seed may be sown in the open
ground in April, and the young plants nursed in the same
way as celery; but*in planting out the ground is manured
and dug, not trenched, and the plants are set in shallow drills
12 inches apart, watering freely. As the growth advances,
draw the earth to the plants, by which the knotty roots will
be blanched and made delicate and tender.

CORN, SUGAR

ties about May 1. and if a continuous supply is wanted all
summer, make plantings
about two weeks apart
from May 1 until the
last of July, first plant-
ing early varieties, then
later ones. Plant in
rows 3 feet apart, and
make the hills about the
same distance apart in
the rows. Five kernels
in the hills are plenty.

MELON, WATER
German, Waffermelone French, Melon d’Kan Spanish, Zandia

One ounce will plant 50 hills.

CULTURE.—Watermelons are cultivated in hills which should be 6 to 8 feet apart each way, and composed of light,
moderately rich soil. The hills should be dug about 2 feet square, 18 inches deep, and half filled with well rotted manure,
which must be thoroughly incorporated with the soil. Plant in May, ten seeds to a hill, and when the plants are well up,
thin out to three. Cultivate until the vines cover the ground, and pinch the ends of the growing shoots to induce early
fruiting.

TOM WATSON.—This melon has created quite a furore
wherever grown, and we believe is unquestionably the best
quality shipping melon in our list. It has a dark green rind,
solid red, luscious meat, ripening close up to the rind. The
rind is very tough, making it an excellent melon for ship-
ping long distances. Its flavor and fine qualities also com-
mend it very strongly for the private grower. We believe
it is destined to become one of the most popular melons on

One ounce will plant 100 feet of drill; 5 or 6 pounds in drills for an acre.
For sets from 50 to 60 pounds should be sown to the acre, according to the
richness of the soil.

CULTURE.—The Onion thrives best in a rather deep, rich, loamy soil, and,
unlike most vegetables, succeeds well when cultivated on the same ground for
successive years. The best culture requires that the ground be deeply trenched
and manured the previous autumn, and laid up in ridges during the winter,
#1 to pulverize. As early in the spring as the ground is in working order, com-
mence operations by leveling the ground with a rake and tread it firmly; sow
thinly in drills about one-fourth of an inch deep, and 1 foot apart; cover with
9| fine soil, and press down with the back of a spade or a light roller. When the -
young plants are strong enough, thin gradually so that they stand 3 or 4
inches apart. Keep the surface of the ground open and free from weeds by
frequently hoeing, taking care nat to stir the soil too deeply or to collect it
about the growing bulbs.

Spanish, Guizante

German, Erbfen
One quart for 75 feet of drill; 2 or 3 bushels in drills for an acre.

CULTURE.—Our trial of Peas is probably the most extensive on this side of
the Atlantic, and it enables us to discard inferior sorts and to offer in the
following list only the best varieties. Peas come earliest to maturity in light,
rich soil.

For early crop, a deep loam or soil strongly inclining to clay is best. For
early crops, decomposed leaves or leaf-mold should be used; or, if the soil is
very poor, strong manure may be used. For general crops a good dressing
should be applied, and for the dwarf-growing kinds the soil can hardly be too
rich. When grown as a market crop, Peas are never staked; for private use,
they are generally sown in double rows, and the tall varieties staked up by
brush. For an early crop, sow as soon as the ground can be worked, and make
repeated sowings every two weeks for succession. After the first of June
sowing should be discontinued until the middle of August, when a good crop
may sometimes be secured by sowing an extra early sort for fall use.

LAXTONIAN.—A grand, early, dwarf Pea; enormous pods; the largest of
peas. The pods of Laxtonian are very large, and are produced on a low-growing,
sturdy vine, without support of any kind. The flavor is just as rich and good
as any of the later varieties, which entitles it to a permanent place in every
garden. The plant is only 11% feet high, branching in habit. Pt, 50c; qt. 45c;

matures earlier and the pods contain more peas. It is dwarf,
growing about 15 inches high, and the plants are very produc-
tive, bearing many twin pods, which are dark green in color.

In drills 3 feet apart, 12 to 14 bushels to the acre.
peck will plant about 125 hills.

CULTURE.—The Potato, like all robust-growing vegetables,
can be grown with varying success on soils of all kinds and
in all cond..ions of fertility, but the soil best suited to itis a
sandy loam. In all heavy soils it is more subject to disease,
and the flavor, also, is much inferior. In breaking up good
pasture land, the decaying sod answers sufficiently well for
the first year in lieu of manure. Manure is applied either in
rows or hills, or broadcast over the ground and plowed in—
the latter in most cases being preferable. If the soil is good,
but little manure is required. In highly enriched soil the
plants are more liable to disease than when grown in soil
that is naturally good. The best fertilizers are those of a
dry or absorbent nature, as plaster, lime, superphosphate of
lime and bone dust. For wet soils these are particularly
beneficial, as they not only promote growth but prevent dis-
ease. Plant as early in spring as the ground can be had in
fair working order, in hills or ridges about 3 feet apart, cover-
ing in light, warm soils about 4 inches deep, but in cold, wet
situations 214 or 3 inches will be sufficient.

original purity, the planting stock having been renewed an-
nually for several years past from Houlton, Maine, where it
s very popular and about the only variety planted for market.

EARLY SIX WEEKS.—Undoubtedly the earliest Potato
zrown; similar to Early Ohio in every respect, but claimed by
the originator to be earlier than this standard well-known sort.
We recommend this for first-early planting.

IRISH COBBLER.—A variety which becomes popular wher-
ever tried on account of its earliness, handsome appearance
and excellent quality. Tubers are round and smooth, skin
creamy white and often netted; flesh white. We do not hesi-

SPINACH

CULTURE.—This is a very important crop in our mar rket
gardens, and is one of the most easily managed of all vege-
tables, requiring but little culture, and may be had fit for use
the entire season. The main crop is sown in September. It is
sometimes covered up in exposed places with straw or salt
hay during winter, which prevents it from being cut by frost;
but in sheltered fields there is no necessity for covering. For
summer use it may be sown at intervals of two or three weeks
from April to August. Spinach is best developed and most
tender and succulent when grown in rich soil. 9

SQUASH

German, Kurbik French, Courge Spanish, Calabaza
One ounce Early will plant 50 hills; 1 oz. Marrow, 25 hills.
CULTURE.—The plants are very tender and sensitive to

cold. and planting must be delayed until settled, warm

weather. The general principles of culture are the same as
those given for cucumbers and melons, but the plants are
less particular as to soil. The summer varieties should be
planted 4 feet apart each way, and the winter sorts § feet.
Three plants are sufficient for a hill. Care should be taken

not to break the stems from the Squashes intended for win-
slightest

ter use, as the injury will inerease the liability

to decay.

For Field Culture

BOONE COUNTY PRIZE WINNING
STOCK.—We have secured from an expert ¥~ '
eorn grower of the State of Maryland a spe- yyw
cial selected stock of this corn, specially 44 rau
grown for seed purposes for securing the
best development of ear and the largest
yielding of corn.

IMPROVED GOLDEN DENT.—This is
Row the standard variety in many of the
corn-growing sections of the Middle West.
Ears average nine to ten inches long, taper-
ing slightly toward tip, are about six inches
in circumference, contain 16 to 20 rows, and
are remarkably uniform. Kernels light yellow, deeply dented,
and well placed on a cob of medium size. Usually matures
in 110 to 115 days.

IMPROVED LEAMING.—A very popular and productive va-
riety. On good land the stalks grow tall, producing two good
ears to each stalk. The ears are long, with small red cob
well filled with grains of medium size, of a rich golden color.
It ripens in from 100 to 110 days, and makes a good crop
even in dry seasons.

HICKORY KING CORN.—This has the largest grains witb
the smallest cob of any white corn. So large are the grains
and so small the cob that on an ear broken in half a single
Zrain will almost completely cover the cob section. Of strong
growth, the stalks take a firm hold in the ground and stand

and handsomest yellow corn we have ever seen. The ears
have brightest golden-yellow grains, of remarkable size and
completely filled out to the extreme end of the cob. The cobs
are unusually small.

COCK’S PROLIFIC.—White, flinty; unexcelled for meal or
hominy. Exceedingly productive, bearing four and five ears
to a stalk, making it one of the best ensilage corns on the

COW PEAS (THE GREAT SOIL IMPROVER)

Make Poor Land Rich, Good Land Productive, and
Enrich the Soil.

Green crops plowed under are one of the best and cheapest
; Ways of improving the soil. For this purpose the cow pea is
- most popular, especially for medium or light soil. They should
_ be sown in May or June, at the rate of 114 tushels to the
acre, and plowed under as soon as they have attained their
_ full growth. There is no surer or cheaper means of improv-
ing poor soil than by sowing cow peas.

COW PEAS FOR HAY

If planted early, say by middle of May, in the central corn
belt section, a crop can be cut and cured for hay the sam? as
clover, then the stubble, in a short time, will put out a new
growth to be turned under in the fall as a fertilizer.

The best varieties of Cow Peas for all purposes are the
following:

Southern Black Eye Cow Pea.
Southern Black, or Ram’s Horn,
Whip-Poor-Will, Clay and New Era.

CANADA FIELD PEAS AND OATS FOR FODDER
These make a fodder, and hay which double the productior

FODDER AND SOILING PLANTS—Continued

SOJA OR JAPANESE SOY BEAN

The demand for the Soja Beans has grown remarkably of
late years. Their great value is as a forage crop, for fertiliz-
ing the soil and for pasturing or feeding the green fodder
much in the same way as the cow pea.

SAND OR WINTER VETCH
For forage and fertilizing purposes; it succeeds. and pro-
duces good crops on poor, sandy soils as well as on good
lands, growing to a height of 4 to 5 feet. It is perfectly
hardy throughout the United States, remaining green all
winter.
EARLY AMBER SUGAR CANE
The high value of Northern grown sugar cane for fodder
and ensilage is becoming rapidly known. When fed down
young as a pasture it grows rapidly again. The seed and
fodder is valuable as food for horses and cattle.

DWARF ESSEX RAPE

Makes Splendid Fall, Winter and Spring Pasturage—Fine
for Cattle, Sheep and Hogs.

Rape for fall sowing should be put in in July, August or
September. Makes a large yielding, nutritious, succulent
green feed or pasturage all through the fall, winter and early
spring. The fattening properties of Rape are said to be very
much better than those of clover, and it makes a first-class
erop, either for sowing alone, or for grazing during the fall
and winter; can be sown with Crimson Clover. Rape can be
successfully sown both in the fall and spring. Early fall

seeding, however, gives the best results. Rape is best
sown in drills at the rate of 3 to 5 pounds per acre; or it
can be sown broadcast, when from 6 to 8 pounds per acre
should be used.

TEOSINTE (Reana Luxurians)

This gigantic Grammea will furnish a continuous daily sup-
ply of most nutritious green food for horses and all kinds of
cattle all through the Summer. It also makes splendid dry
fodder, yielding enormously, and being more nutritious and
better relished by all stock than corn fodder. It stools out
enormously after being cut.

Prices on application,

The cost of the very best seed is so small, compared with
the value of the growing crops, that sensible planters realize
that they cannot afford to risk seed of doubtful pedigree, and
we know just as well that we cannot afford to risk our hard-
earned reputation by selling seed of doubtful character.

Insecticides
Soluble Sulphur Compound

DIRECTIONS FOR MIXING: Fill the spray tank one-half
or more full of water and pour the powdered material slowly
into the tank making sure that the agitator is in motion dur-
ing this time. Soluble Sulphur Compound dissolves readily
in cold water. When using Arsenate of Lead (dry or paste)
add to the tank after the Soluble Sulphur Compound.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Dormant Sprays—For early
spring or late fall spraying for the control of such troubles
as San Jose Scale, Oyster Shell Bark Louse, Peach Lecanium
Seale, Peach Leaf Curl, Aphis and Pear Psylla Eggs, etc., use
12% pounds of Soluble Sulphur Compound to 50 gallons of
water. This strength should never be used after the buds
open. Summer Sprays—For summer spraying when the trees
are in foliage, for fungus diseases such as Apple Scab, Bitter
Rot, Mildews, etc., one pound to 50 galons of water. Arsenate
of Lead may be used with this strength of material.

AMOUNT OF MATERIAL NECESSARY TO USE.
Experience has shown that for thorough work and best
results the following approximate amounts of diluted material
should be applied:

Apple and Peach Trees—1 to 5 years old, 1 gal.; 5 to 10 years,
1% gals.; 10 to 15 years, 2 gals.

Pyrox

(Reg. U. S. Pat. Office)

ONE BEST SPRAY FOR POTATOES, TOMATOES,
HGGPLANT, CUCUMBERS, ETC.

If you spray your crops with Bowker’s
Pyrox you will add to your profits. Pyrox
not only kills the destructive leaf-eating
bugs and worms and protects the vines
from blights, rust and fungous, but it has
a healthful, stimulating action on the
leaves, which are the lungs of the plant.
Even if no insects or fungus are to be
feared, it pays to spray your crops with
Pyrox, for its stimulating effect alone.

Pyrox sticks to the foliage through
heavy rain, which gives you a great ad-
vantage. Most sprays wash off with every shower.

The
Bowker Company has been manufacturing Pyrox for fifteen

years. Its use is no longer experimental.

Disinfecting Germ-Killing White Paint

Carbola is a white paint in powder form combined with
a disinfectant many times stronger than pure carbolic acid.
It is non-poisonous and non-caustite. It kills lice, mites, fly
eggs, etc., and helps prevent the start and spread of con-
tagious diseases that affect man, beast and fowl. Carbola is
two things in one—a paint that disinfects or a disinfectant
that paints. It dries a clear snow white. It saves labor,
time and money. It paints and disinfects at one operation
in the same time and with the same labor required to paint
or disinfect only.

Carbola is recommended for use instead of whitewash in
every place where whitewash ordinarily is used—garages,
factories, warehouses, cellars, outbuildings, tree trunks.

It is recommended for. use instead whitewash and disin-
fectants in stables, kennels, poultry houses, rabbit hutches,
barns, creameries, hog pens, dairy buildings.

It is recommended for use as a disinfectant wherever one
is needed and where the added light that comes from a
whitened wall—white walls increase the light from 25 per
cent to 50 per cent—is an advantage.

The convenience with which Carbola is mixed and applied,
the better results it gives, the saving of time and labor it
effects, its low cost, the absence of disagreeable odor and
the fact that it does not blister, flake or peel off, are a few
of the many reasons it has earned the endorsement of many
U. S. Experiment Stations and best known and most care-
fully conducted poultry, dairy and breeding farms. In 1918
over 65 per cent of Carbola sales were re-orders—the best
proof of Carbola’s merit.

FARMING IMPLEMENTS

GENUINE OLIVER CHILLED PLOWS

The No. 11 James Oliver Sulky Plow

Made Right and Left Hand

Have you ever noticed that the farmer who takes pride in
his field and who plows it with an ordinary three-wheeled
sulky plow, finds it
necessary to finish up
the last four or five
furrows with a walking
plow? If you ever saw
a farmer with a No 11
James Oliver Sulky
Plow do this, you can
put it down that he
took it so easy in plow-
ing the major part of
the field that he was
ashamed of himself, and
finished up with a walk-
ing plow to ease his
conscience, for there is
no other reason why he
should depend upon
X some other plow to fin-

~— ish what the No. 11
started, and the No.
11 never hesitates to start in any field. It is the only three
wheeled plow made—remember that—on which the trucks
can be narrowed by the operator so that in plowing the last
furrow, both wheels will run in the dead furrow, finishing up
the field just as neatly and cleanly as the first.

Price, upon application.

Oliver Steel Beam Plows

All the strong features of the Oliver Wood Beam are incor-
porated in the Steel Beam Plow. Light draft is one of its
strong points. Scour-
ing in all kinds of
soil is another equal-
ly valuable requisite.

We cannot too
highly recommend
the Oliver Steel
Beam Plow. It makes
friends wherever it
is sold.

Double Disc Harrow
With Flexible Frame

The Double Disc Harrow is just what its name in-
dicates—two harrows combined in one, for the purpose
of saving time and labor in tilling the soil. Its capacity
is twice that of any other form of Disc Harrow, for it
works the ground twice at one operation. One man and
three horses operate the Twenty Disc, doing as much work
as could be done with two ordinary harrows employing two
men and six or eight
horses. Moreover,
the work is more
thoroughly done, for
the second harrow-
ing follows immedi-
ately after the first,
before the _ freshly
cut ground has had
time to dry out or
become hard.

Oliver Riding Cultivator

When the first descriptive circular of the Oliver Culti-
vator was written, upon entering the race where so many
were competing, it was done with a feeling of confidence
that the cultivator would prove to be a universal favorite.

The movement of one lever
assisted by the team raises and lowers both gangs, and at
the same time balances the frame. ;

For narrow rows, the wheels can be set 38 inches between
the tires and still give ample room for guiding where planting
has been done badly out of check.

As a hard ground cultivator it has no equal. There are no
springs or high hitch to draw the shovels out of the ground,
which are, therefore, always hungry for their work.

It is a profitable cultivator for the farmer, as it does not
wear out easily, never breaks, saves time and manual labor,
and does faster and better work than is possible with any
other.

Price on application.

The Buckeye Pivot Axle Riding

Cultivators

Pressure of the foot on the foot-lever turns the wheels and
moves the beams at the same time, thus shifting the entire
cultivator instantly in the desired direction.

Space between beams can be instantly changed while the
machine is in motion, by a convenient spacing lever.

Single tongue; square tube steel frame; forty-two inch
steel wheels; spring pressure; steel seat adjustable for length
and height; drop-hitch directly connected with beams; height
of arch, 34 inches; adjustable arch.

Especially adapted to crooked rows and hillside cultivation.

Price on application.

Buckeye Walking Cultivator

The Buckeye Balanced Frame Walking Cultivator with
parallel beams has many new and improved features, making
it far superior in every way to any other cultivator of this
style on the market.

The steel axle is of one continuous piece, giving it great
strength. f

Perfectly balanced. Light and neat in appearance.

Steel wheels, 30 inches high, double tongue.

agreed: that much de-
pends upon the seed,
accuracy of planter,
and soil conditions. The
latter, of course, is en-
tirely in the hands of
the farmer, so also
might we say of the
seed, but the machine
behind the team is the
one proposition of which is demanded Jury Trial.

PUMPS

: Myers Force and Lift Pumps for Deep

and Shallow Wells

Construction and Durability.
The material used in the costruction of

bought for the purpose. The stand is made
of the best cast iron and steel. The cylind-
ers are seamless drawn brass or brass lined
iron; the latter is always recommended
where it can be used, as it combines wearing
quality and strength. The valve seat is of
glass, which is postively noncorrosive and
will not harden the leather, a feature be-
longing absolutely to the Myers Pump, and
without which no pump can be perfect. The
check valve is of poppet style, which rises
clear of the seat at each stroke of the pump,
allowing it to clear itself perfectly; the old
style hinge valve is out of date. Buckets
and valves are made from the best oak
tanned leather, all cut to an exact thick-
ness and pressed dry by means of our pat-
ented process. The reason a great many
pumps do not give satisfaction is because
the manufacturer use cheap leather of an
uneven thickness.

There is no reason why a pump will not
give satisfaction and last for years if con-
structed as above.

Carborundum Niagara Grinders

Carborundum Stones are made
of Carborundum, the most mar-
velous abrasive the world has ever
known. It is as hard and sharp
as the diamond. The stones be-
ing manufactured, the uniformity
of the grit, and cutting qualities,
as well as absolute uniformity in
hardness are insured.

The rapidity with which the
work is accomplished, the satis-
faction of having it promptly
done, and the pleasure of having
a stone sharp and clean, never
glazed or filled, always ready for
service, outweigh many times the
slightly-increased expenditure for
these stones.

U. S. Poultry Fence

Built on miniature scale of farm fence interwoven with
parallel wires and hinge joints so it stretches to posts straight
even and nice without buckling, bagging or sagging.

It’s so stiff and satisfactory, it does not require top rail and
base board or so many posts as old style netting.

Guaranteed 5 to 6 times as strong and at least 100 per cent
better in every way. All parallel wires are of even length and
all mesh of uniform size. They can’t be otherwise the way
it’s made.

Made in heights from 12 to 72 inches.
or after weaving. Put up in 150 foot rolls.

It’s not merely a substitute for old style netting. It’s some-
thing much better. It’s the strongest, cheapest, most sightly
and best fence for the purpose yet invented. .
