FARQUHAR’S RELIABLE VEGETABLE SEEDS. ARTICHOKE. Artischoke, (Gur.) Alcachofa, (Sr.) A most delicious vegetable, rapidly gaining in popularity. The heads are usually boiled, and the bottom of each scale eaten with butter and salt. In France they are more’ frequently baked with a dressing of fresh butter, forming a most savory dish. Culture. Sow seeds in April or May, and when large enough, transplant in rows 4 feet apart and 2 feet in the rows. They yield the second year, and require protection during winter by earthing up and mulching. In the Northern States it is better to treat this plant as an annual, sowing seeds under glass and keeping the seedlings growing vigor- ously until May, when they should be set out in rich soil, when they will produce fine heads the first season.

Sow the seeds thinly in drills one foot apart and one inch deep. The permanent bed should be trenched very deeply, and well manured with rich, thoroughly decayed manure. Wide drills should then be made, 3 feet apart, and deep enough to admit of the top of the plants being covered 6 inches. Set the plants, one or two years old, 12 inches apart in the rows, carefully spreading out and separating the roots. For the sake of convenience one drill should be made at a time, and the planting and covering completed before another is commenced. In November the plants should have their annual top dressing of manure after the stalks have been cleared away. The dressing should be forked in as soon as the ground can be worked in spring. and the bed neatly raked. One ounce of seed sows 60 feet of drill; 5 pounds sow one acre. Argenteuil.

CULTURE. Mushrooms are more easily cultivated than many people imagine, and may be grown in any room or cellar where the temperature can be main- tained at from fifty to sixty- five degrees. For the bed, use fresh stable manure, which should consist of half droppings and half short litter; this must be thor- oughly turned and mixed; many growers prefer a mixt- ure of three parts horse drop- pings and one part good fresh loam. Before being placed in the bed, let the manure be put in some dry place to sweeten, mixing it thoroughly and turning it three or four times, when, if preferred, the loam may be added. Upon a dry, firm bottom or shelf, proceed to make the bed by spreading a thin layer of the prepared mixture, pounding it firm, and continue thus till the bed is 12 inches thick. Leave it thus for about a week, or until the temperature has sub- sided to eighty-five degrees. Then make holes about 10 inches apart, and put in each a piece of spawn about the size of an egg. Press the spawn firmly into the com- post about 2 inches, leaving the top uncovered to allow the excess of heat and moisture to pass off without injury to the germs. After ten days fill the holes and cover the whole bed with 2 inches of fresh loam, and over this place a few inches of straw. If the tempera- ture is right, mushrooms will appear in six to eight weeks from time of spawning. The bed will continue bearing from four to six weeks. (f the surface of the bed becomes dry at any time, it should be moistened freely with water at a temperature of eighty to eighty-five Jegrees. To stimulate the bed when it seems exhausted, the following treatment will sometimes give wonderful results: Soak the whole bed thoroughly with water at a temperature of one hundred and ten degrees, adding one pound of sheep manure to every five gal- lons. One pound of Farquhar’s English Milltrack Mushroom spawn is sufficient for six square feet of bed. MUSHROOM SPAWN. Farquhar’s English Milltrack.

Zwiedet, (Ger.) Cebdolla, (SP.) Farquhar’s Selected Yellow Globe Danvers Onion. Culture. The Onion had been cultivated as an article of food from the earliest times, and is perhaps at the present day more universally grown, than any other vegetable. A good crop is impossible unless the soil is very rich and kept clean. Use well-rotted manure freely, and get the crop in as early as possible in spring, even should the weather be cold and unpleasant. Sow in drills one foot apart and cover about one-third of an inch, treading or rolling after sowing so that the hot, dry atmosphere may not destroy the sprouting seed. When three inches high, thin to two inches apart. Stir the ground freely without disturbing the young plants and keep free from weeds. One ounce of seed to 100 feet of drill; 4 to 5 pounds an acre. 5 Farquhar’s Selected Yellow Globe Danvers (astern Grown). ‘The finest type of this favorite American variety, which is more extensively grown than any other Onion.

The object to be attained is a constant, successive growth of rich pasturage from spring until fall. It is a well-established fact that soil sown with a variety of different grasses which are adapted to the soil, and which attain perfection at alternate months from April to September, produce very much larger and more satisfactory crops, both for hay and pasturage, than when only one or two kinds of grasses or clovers are sown. The good results obtained from our Special Grass Seed mixtures are demonstrated by the constant- ly increasing demand for them. Fall seeding is preferable, but spring sowing will be successful if done early, while the land is cool and moist. In addition to the Grasses, we advise sowing 10 Ibs. of Mixed Clover Seed per acre. Clover seed should be sown separately as it is heavier than Grass seeds and settles at the bottom when mixed with them, and in consequence is likely to be sown unevenly. Clovers in their young state are tender in our climate, and should therefore be sown in spring. PERMANENT MIXTURES FOR HAY CROPS FOR ONE ACRE. No. 1. lbs. Timothy. “Fancy Red Top. “Orchard Grass.

The chief merit of Alfalfa is the fact that it can be cut three or four times in a season. The soil should be deep, rich and well prepared. It does not succeed on compact clay, nor on land with impervious subsoil. The roots shoot downwards, reaching ten to fifteen feet below the surface, and will therefore resist the driest weather.

On rich, loamy soils this variety grows nearly twice as large as the Medium Red Clover and is earlier in starting growth. Lb., .35; bush. (60 lbs.) $18.00; 100 lbs., $30.00. RED MEDIUM. Trifolium pratense. The best clover for all practical purposes. Succeeds best on rich, warm loams, containing humus. Lime and potash are essential for its best development. A biennial, but by close pasturage may be made to last several years. Lb., .380; bush. (60 lbs.) $17.00; 100 lbs., $28.00. SCARLET or CRIMSON CLOVER. Trifolium incarnatum. This annual Clover thrives best on warm, loose, sandy soil. Its chief value is as a winter or early spring pasture crop and as a green manure. A rapid growing, nitrogen-storing plant, and as such is invaluable for growth in orchards and wherever it can occupy the land from July to December. Sow twenty pounds per acre. It may be sown at any time from May to October. Lb., .25; bush. (60 Ibs.) $12.00; 100 Ibs., $18.00. WHITE CLOVER. Trifolium repens.

Nothing on the market is as well adapted to cover up shortages in hay crops as are the Millets, yielding quick pasturage on almost anysoil. They are rank feeders, however, and do best on a fertile, mellow soil, which has had a liberal application of barnyard manure. Sow in June or July, broadcast, 1 to 1} bushels of seed per acre, or drill one-half bushel. Cut (if for hay) as soon as the heads are formed. MILLET, HUNGARIAN. Panicum Hungariensis. An annual forage plant which germinates readily and withstands drought. If cut early, makes an excellent hay, often yielding two or three tons per acre. Sow from June to August, using about 14 bushels to the acre. Bushel, (48 lbs.) $2.25. MILLET, COMMON. Panicum Miliaceum. Excellent for forage. Requires a dry, light rich soil. Height, 2} to4 ft. Bushel (50 lbs.) $2.50. MILLET, GERMAN or GOLDEN. Panicum Germanicum. An improved variety, growing from three to five feet high. Under some circumstances it will yield more per acre than the preceding. Bushel (50 Ibs.) $2.50. MILLET, JAPANESE. Panicum Crus Gali. This variety is particularly adapted to the Northern States, making a quick growth and forming one of the best crops for fodder or ensilage. It frequently attains a height of six to eight feet, with numerous side shoots and yielding from ten to fifteen tons of green fodder per acre. If required for dried fodder, it should be cut as soon as the heads have formed; it is relished by stock, and cows fed on it invariably increase in milk. Horses often prefer it to Timothy hay. If sown broadcast it requires from 15 to 20 pounds per acre, or in drills 10 to 15 pounds to the acre. (Bush., 35 Ibs.). _Lb., .10; 10 lbs., .75; 100 lbs., Japanese Millet. $6.50. R. & J.

Too little attention is given to the benefits to be derived from a change of seed, which should be made in this-country every two or three years, as any one acquainted with our markets can see the dee | generacy which takes place from the want of this attention. A judicious selection and change can easily be obtained at moderate prices. | Oats, Abundance. IJmported. A handsome British white Oat, very early and an enormous 2 cropper. It makes a strong growth of straw, with large well filled heads of heavy grain. The Oats we offer weigh approximately 48 pounds to the measured bushel, consequently when compared with the legal bushel of 32 pounds, the cost is very little more than the native Oat. Sow 2 to 21% bushels to the acre. Bush., (48 Ibs.), $2.50; 10 bush., $23.50. Gats, Welcome... This is now a well-known and extensively grown variety, and is one of the heaviest, handsomest, and most productive white varieties grown. They stool heavily with extra strong, straight straw, standing well. Succeeds well in a wide range of climate, and .. under a great variety of soils and methods of culture. Bushel (32 lbs.,) $1.25 ; 10 bush., $12.00. Oats, Victory. The seed we offer is imported direct from Sweden, where scientific breed- ing of grain has been carried on for twenty-five years, supported by the government. This variety has produced there, the highest yield of all the white oats. The panicle is rather small and short, but compact and the spikelets usually bi-flowered. Sow 2 to 214 bushels per acre. Bushel, (48 lbs.) $3.50; 10 bush., $32.00. ai Oats, Black Tartarian. A very prolific and early variety, yielding enormous crops of fine, ' heavy grain. The straw is long and strong and is considered one of the most nutritious for green fodder. Bushel (32 lbs.) $1.60; 10 bush., $15.00. Peas Field for Fodder and Green Manuring. The Blue and the White Canada Peas are two of the best varieties for general cul- tivation; they afford most profitable crops for fattening stock. They have been grown by dairymen with very satisfactory results, following Winter Rye, which was cut green in June for dairy cows, then stubble turned under and sown with mixed Peas and Oats, thus furnishing a large amount of forage in August, when grass pastures are usually short. Sow 3 bushels to the acre; if with Oats, 2 bushels. Canada White. Valuable for Northern climates. Peck, $1.00; bush. (60 Ibs.) $3.50;. 10 bush., $32.50. Canada Blue. Valuable for Northern climates.

One of the best and cheapest ways of improving soil is the plowing under of leguminous crops. Cow Peas have been found superior for this purpose, especially on medium or light soils. Like Clover, they absorb nitrogen from the atmosphere, the roots reach deep into the soil and bring up the necessary potash, thus making a com- plete and natural fertilizer. For fertilizing purposes, Cow Peas are superior to Clover from the fact that the foliage is greater, besides making full growth in from 3 to 4 months, Sow as early as May 10 or as late as July; one (1) bushel to the acre in drills, 214 bushels to the acre broadcast, Peck, Japanese Buckwheat. $1.00; bush., (60 lbs.) $3.50; 10 bush., $32.50. Princess Barley. Rape, Dwarf Essex. A forage plant of great merit, easily grown in any part of the United States, and of great value for sheep and lambs. Oneacre of Rape is sufficient to pasture 10 to 15 lambs for two to two and one-half months. It is often sown broadcast, about 5 lbs. to the acre, but will yield much better if drilled about 3 lbs. to the acre in rows 22 inches apart, and cultivated until the plants are well developed. It may be sown in May, but pref- erably in June or July. Lb. .12; 100 lbs. $10.00. Rye, Spring. Sow as a “catch” crop, where winter grain has failed.

Farquhar’s German Irises were awarded a silver medal by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, June 7, 1913. German Irises thrive in a well drained and sunny situation and the finest blooms are obtained from established clumps, consequently when planted they should remain undisturbed for at least five or six years. The plants may be given a light covering of leaves or salt hay (not manure) during winter. When transplanting barely cover the rhizomes. In the descriptions (S) is used to signify standards or the erect petals; (F) falls or the drooping peti als. Each, 15 cents; dozen, $1.50; 100, $10.00 (except where otherwise priced).

FARQUHAR & CO. for a Display of Pzonies, June, 1913. Ponies require a good, rich, deep soil and an abundant supply of water during the growing season. When enriching the ground the use of too much fresh manure near the roots should be avoided. An important point to observe is not to plant too deep. The roots should be planted so that the eyes will be 2 to 3 inches below the surface. ‘Too deep planting is a frequent cause for shy flowering. The figure following the name indicates the relative time of flowering. Agnes Mary Kelway. 2. Guards and crown deep violet-rose Dr. Brettonneau. (Verdier). 2.
