MONTGOMERY ST,RUPPERT ST ano tHe HARBO From Guess Work—to Certainty To Our Friends, Our Customers: The greatest thing that has happened in our business lives and in the almost hundred years’ experience of our establishment, is the fact, the seed business in the last few years, has emerged from a business of some indefiniteness to one of almost absolute certainty. The three great points of Trustworthy Seeds are: First, Stock Purity; Second, Mechanical Purity ; Third, Germination and Vitality or Viability. The first and most important point, Stock Purity, rests almost entirely upon the knowledge and_ integrity of the Seed Grower. The accumulated experience of four generations, almost a hundred years, has taught us who are the most Trustworthy Specialists among the Seed Growers of the world. The second point, Mechanical Purity, for many years, was decided by the accuracy of the human eyes and years of experience, but now, nothing so indefinite is done, for with Graduate Botanists making use of scientific and minutely accurate apparatus working in our completely equipped Seed Laboratory, we are able to know to the one-hundredth part of one per centum, the pure seed; the amount of small sticks, dirt and other inert matter; fhe number and kind of foreign seeds, if any, of every variety of seed we buy or sell. Mechanical Purity has never entered into Vegetable Seeds for they are grown under such intensive cultivation, foreign seeds are entirely absent. Man’s genius has perfected cleaning machinery that recleans all Field Seeds, Clover and Grasses within an extremely small fraction of being absolutely pure. The third point, Germination and Vitality or Viability, To be of value, all seeds must grow and grow vigorously and with the aid of the most recent scientific information and test chambers constructed on principles laid down by the Agricultural Department Experts, together with our hot house tests and field tests; the germination properties of our seeds are frequently and accurately tested — several tests being made of each item at the same time under different environments, so as to tally not only the number of seeds that grow, but also the vigor and strength with which they grow. What You Are Justly Entitled To Surrounding Our Seed with all these earnest efforts to have them Trustworthy, Pure and True, we can with confidence solicit your order for seed for 1912 and believe that unless you secure seeds that have been as carefully watched and protected from start to finish, you are not getting what you are justly entitled to. Good seeds are at the bottom of all good agriculture, they are the foundation stones, success is impossible without them. Our chief ambition for 1912 is to make happy and more prosperous every customer of our house. Yours respectfully. J. Bolgiano & Son. January Ist, 1912. J. Bolgiano & Son, Seedsmen, Baltimore, Md.

Bolgiano’s Marvelous New Early Red Tomato “PROSPERITY” First Offered - Spring, 1912 E10: We didn’t want to name this New Early Tomato ““PROSPERITY” but we couldn’t help it, no other name could tell so quickly and so thoroughly how good it was. “PROSPERITY” means Success, Good Fortune, Entire and Complete Satisfaction; finding a Tomato possessing all these qualifications and advantages, we instinctively thought of ““PROSPERITY.”’ Description:—The earliest of all tomatoes, a brilliant red, an enormous yielder, grown and de- veloped from single plant selections covering a period of five years, filled full of strong, sturdy, healthy, new blood—so good we have felt inclined to wait another year, so as to accumulate a little larger stock of seed before offering it for sale—but here it is and the opportunity is yours while our limited supply of seed lasts.

A Money Maker When Every Thing Goes Wrong On Feb. 7th, 1911 Mr. T. D. Lawrence of Licking Co., Ohto, wvrttes as follows: Please send me vour Catalogue for 1911. I had a fine crop of vour I. X. L. Tomatoes last year although we had the worst drouth LT ever experienced. Had my first setting froze down. TI reset again and it turned cold again, the plants stood seeming to go back for two weeks and then started to grow, then we had a long bad drouth for weeks nevertheless these tomatoes made me more money than any I ever vatsed. Best Crop In 12 Years Mr. Charles L. Tabis of Middlesex Co., Mass, writes as follows: I have been vatsing Tomatoes for the last 12 vears and I have never had such acropas I had last year from Bolgiano’s I. X. L. Tomato Seed. The Best Ever Planted In Virginia Mr. John M. Setp of Rapidan Co., Va., on February 26th, 1911, writes as follows: ThelI. X. L. Tomato does better here than any variety I have used. It is the best eaviy Tomato ever planted here. About 800 Crates To The Acre Mr. R. FE. Athey, of Putnam Co., Fla., writes asfollows: ‘The pound of 1. X. L.

Has Surpassed the Best Yielding Tomato in the World More Than 100%— 77. A Marvelous Doubie Yielder, Side by side it has produced three times the crop produced by the Stone or New Century. It has even doubled the yield of the Greater Balti- more Tomato. The vast possibilities of this New Tomato are astounding. We believed in Greater Baltimore Tomato the limit of productiveness had been reached, but ‘‘My Maryland’’so far outyields any other Tomato ever grown that its remarkable productiveness is amazing. People have driven miles to seea field of ‘‘My Maryland” ‘Tomatoes and they all marveled at the prodigious abund- ance of the crops it had produced. The fields were literally covered with the finest well-shaped, perfectly formed, solid, smooth, bright red, uni- form fruit, allfree from roughness and cracks, much larger thanany they had ever seen before. It was called then and there ‘‘A Winner” and it well deserved the title. The Tomatoes are much larger and far heavier than either the Greater Baltimore or the New Century. By most careful re-selections for five years, we have thoroughly established the purity and trueness of “My Mary- land”? Tomato, and are delighted to be the intro- ducer of a Tomato which from start to finish is “King Of Them All.”’ A real “Double Yielder”’ that will be known as the best second early and main crop Tomato the world over in less thana year.

T. Bosworth of New- port, Washington County, Ohio, writes as follows: “Twant to tell you about The “My Maryland’ To- matoes, the seed of which I bought of you last Spring—lI have been having lots of Tomatoes gocd sizeand excellent qualily. the vines bearing from the gvound to the top. Notwithstanding this has been an unfavorable season for tomatocs, late frosts and prolonged dry weather have blighted other to- matoesfearfully, but mine have stood up under the adverse conditions remarkably well. If this had been a favorable season I don't believe the vines would have held the fruit. In concluston I want to say Iwish you great prosperity in the seed bust- mess.” Better Than Any Of Them New York Agr. Exp. Station, Geneva, N.Y. Prof. R. Wellington, writes Septeniber 28, 1910. “Very much pleased with ‘My Maryland’ To- mato this season. . Vines healthy, vigorons but not so rank as Livingston's Stone. Frutt large, smooth and firm, should make a good shipper aswellasagood canning Tomato.

This variety should be of great value for market as well as canning purposes. We have tested several vartelies of Tomatoes this past season and ‘My Maryland’ Tomato has made as good a showing, Uf not better than any of them.” Yields Unusually Heavy Rhode Island Agr. Station, Kingston, R. I. Prof. S. C. Damon, Director, writes Febvuary 27,1911. “Spring of 1410 I received a package of ‘My Maryland’ Tomato Seed from you. The seeds were started under glass and the plants were culttvated in the field under two methods. Part were trained and tted up to stakes, and some were given field cullure con- ditions. The yvteld in both cases were unusually heavy, and the fruit was exceptionally solid and satisfactory in all particulars. It rtpened early and continued over along season, and on thewhole, was very satisfactory.” Fine Variety In Every Respect The Connecticut Agr. Exp. Station, New Haven, Conn. Prof. FE. H. Jenkins. writes September 25,1910. *‘We found the ‘My Maryland’ To- mato a fine variety in every respect. It grew vigorously, yielded well and the fruit was large, fleshy and firm. It ts obvtously a productive variely.”’ Short Jointed—It Forms Large Clusters At Every Joint : Mr. J. A. Dean of Beaumont, Texas, on July 24, 1910, writes as follows: ‘Your New Tomato, ‘My Maryland’ boughtfrom you last March proves to bea world beater. It is without a doubt one of the finest and best crop- ping tomatoes to grow; tl has more good qualities than any other Tomato, the plant being short jointed and forms suchlarge clustersof fruit at every joint, the fruit being so untform in shape and color, making it outsell any Tomato on the market. oP Be eas oe TF etait “My Maryland,’’ Bolgiano’s Wonderful New Tomato “My Maryland’?

Bolgiano’s Prosperity Potatoes The Best Second Early and Main Crop Potato on Earth, This Magnificent Fotato has become the most }opular middle crop potato of the newer varieties, and certainly one of the most worthy. Yields great crops of even, fine, smooth large Potatoes, even under the most uufavorable circumstances, and can be relied upon to bringin good money. It is undoub- tedly the handsomest large potato ever pro- duced, and will outyield any other Potato, and practically every Potato of Marketable size. It is ahead of all others in yield and smooth- ‘| ness, and is of excellent quality. Every far- mer will, after giving this most wonderful Potato a tril, discard every other kind and plant nothing but Bolgiano’s Prosperity Potato for his main crop. Itgrows a very strong, upright top with dark colored stalks and purple blossoms, andis very little affected by drought, blight or bugs. The flesh is as white as snow, and cooks dry and mealy. The eyes are even with the surface, the skin white with rich yellowish-creamy cast, and considerably ruffled or netted. This Potato will astonish old Potato-Growers in its abun- dent yields and fine qualities, and every person who is ambitious to make the most money out of his crop cannot afford to let this year pass without obtaining seed of our crop of New Prosperity Potato.

We wish every one of our customers who grows potatoes could talk with the growers who have grown a crop of this Grand New Potato. It certainly is something to marvel at, and yetif all our customers realized its great value our limited supply would not be a drop in the bucket. Itis an early variety, maturing a little later than the Crown Jewel; it is pure white, large handsome size, distinctive in shape, being long, well filled and tapering at both ends. Eyes are strong and well set, not too deeply , however. It certainly isa beauty and one grower says they grow so large it don’t take many to filla barrel, noculls, and by the carload they brought over $20a car more than the best Potatoon the market. Mr. Prevatt, of Seville, Fla., after giving this Grand Potato athorough trial, orders eight barrels in the place of one he planted last year. Mrs. Wm. G. Harvey, of Roslyn, Md., callsit the ‘Farmers Favorite.” Among other names it was called are ‘Maryland Beauty,” ‘‘Money-Maker,”’ “‘Virginia Wonder,” ‘‘The Excelsior,” “Gold Standard:;” ‘‘Silver King,’’ etc. We finally selected Gray’s “‘Mortgage Lifter’ as suggessed by Mr. Jas. T. Gray, of Grange, Md., because Mr. Gray actually paid off a good size mortgage on his farm with the proceeds from the Wonderful Cr p of this Grand New Potato which he grew this year, and we hope that the mission of Gray's “ Mortgage Lifter” Potato will not be ended until it has helped to clear many more farms of their mortgages.

Eight hundred to one thousand bushels to the acre, and a single specimen weighing as muchas 6 lbs. 2 ozs., aresome of the things this handsome Globe Onion will produce. It has a bright, clear, straw color,and growsa perfect Globe-shape. Is by far the handsomest, most productive, most profitable, and best of all Yellow Globe Onions. Large Onionscan always be raised in a single season directly from seed. It has always brought much better prices than any other Onion in the market; it never fails to attract attention on account of its beauty; on the city stalls it has completely taken the place of the large Spanish Onions. The Prizetaker Onion is gifted with strong drought resisting ability, and we consider this one of its strong merits. People who wish to make money should plant the Prizetaker Onion. It is admitted by the most critical onion growers to be the largest, finest flavored, and most superior Yellow Globe Onion under cultivation. Pkt. 10c. Oz. 15c. % Lb. 35c. % Lb. 65c. Lb. $1.25.

Mr. W. J. Smith, Supt., City Park, Norfolk, Va. On Sepl. 2st 1977, writes: ‘We desire fo say, the Lawn Grass seed you ship- ped us, was im every respect equal to seed purchased from another large seed house and at OE ED A Beautiful, Smooth, Deep Velvety, Green Lawn Is Certain Only Thorough Sowing vate half the Druid Hill Park Velvet Green Lawn Grass Seed Analyzed As To Purity—Tested As To Germination Absolutely The Best Lawn Seed Experience Can Suggest Or That Money Can Buy Will Produce A Beautiful And Permanent Lawn In Four To Six Weeks A smooth velvety lawn surrounding a house adds not only to the value, but enhances the enjoyment of every home, whether it be in city, town or country. When properly made, a lawn is the best investment a home owner can make. The following suggestions muy be of benefit, especially to those whoare about to make a new lawn. A lawn may be made in two ways, by sodding or by sowing seed. Sodding is not only very expensive, but unsatisfactory as well, Sods are ordinarily taken froma pasture or along the roadside and almost invariably contain weed seeds and course tufty grasses which make their appearance after the lawn is made. Seeding is not only cheaper, but is attended with better results. The most important thing to consider in selecting seed forlawn grass, is to obtain a proper mixture of several varieties, for two reasons. First, each variety is at its best during a certain part of the season. By properly choosing early, medium and late grasses, a smooth, even, green lawn is assured from early spring tolateautumn. Second, a given area can supportonly so many grass plants of one kind for they all absorb thesame sort of food, but if several varieties are sown, the same area will support many more plants, as different sorts live on various elements in the soil. This will give a much thicker and more luxuriant turf all over the lawn. With these facts in mind our Druid Hill Park Velvet Green Lawn Grass Seed is scientifically combined. Our experience of many years has given us an intimate knowledge of grasses, their habits and requirements. In our Druid Hill Park Velvet Green Lawn Grass Seed are included only the very best varieties—pure, clean and free from foul seed. Our Druid Hill Park Velvet Green Iawn Grass is very quick in growth, is ready for mowing in from 4 to 6 weeks from time the seed is sown. From early spring until late in the fall, lawns sown with our Druid Hill Park Velvet Green Lawn Grass remain green and fresh, for the reason, that this mixture includes quick growing varieties which are at their best soon after the frost is out of the ground, others that mature and flourish in midsummer, and still others that are greenest and sturdiestin autumn. For each of these seasons there are several different varieties living on different elements in the soil, so that one is certain always to havea satisfactory carpet of green wherever our Druid Hill Park Velvet Green Lawn Grass is sown. Not only is our Druid Hill Park Velvet Green Lawn Grass suitable for the making of new lawns, but it will be found equally valuable for quickly renewing imperfect, old and worn-out areas. Always see that the soil is thoroughly prepared, carefully pulverized and enriched with Sheep Manure or Bone Fertilizer before sowing the seed.

To have the finest Sweet Corn, it must be picked in just the right condition; that is when the skin of the grain breaks at the slightest pressure, and plantings should be made frequently enough to havea supply at this stage. The quality will be inferiorif it is either a few days too old or too young. Second Early 1068. PeepeosDay. Thetwopoints to this remarkable Corn are its extraordinary earli- ness and unparalleled sweetness. So marked is its sweetness and delicacy of flavor that many of ourcustomers plant PEEP-O-DAY exclusively, arranging the plantings a few days apart so asto havethis delicious Corn throughout the season. It is wonderfully pro- ductive. Our crops for three years almost double the yield per acre of any other variety we have grown, early or late. Incredible as this may seem, it is readily accounted for by the fact that the stalks bear from 3 to 5 ears each and the growth being dwarf—about 4 feet—admits of a very close planting.

For early green or bunching Onions sow seed of Silver Skin or other hardy | white varieties in early Augustin well prepared and well drained rich, loamy soil, giving one foot space between the rows, and using 20 pounds of seed per acre. In many localities they winter well without much or other protection. For dry (fall) bulbs, select a clean, rich, well drained and well manured piece of land, prepare a perfect seed bed, and sow seed in early springin drills 15 inches or so apart, using 4to5 pounds of seed per acre. Use wheel-hoe and weeders freely and thin plants to stand at least 2inches apart in the rows. Pull when tops begin to die down, cure and sell, or store in acool,dry place. For sets, select clean sandy soil of medium fertility, prepare it wellin early spring, and at once sow seed in drills a foot apart, using 40 to 60 pounds of seed per acre. Gather the sets when ripe, cure aud store ina dry, airy place. They may be wintered in a slightly frozen condition, but must be protected from repeated freezing and thawing. In early spring following, plant them in shallow drills, 12 inches apart, and about 2 inches apart in the drill. By sowing seed of the Spanish type, such as the Prizetaker and Southport Globes, under glass in January, February, or even March, and transplanting in April to open ground 3 to 4 inches apart in the rows, bulbs of immense size may be produced. 214.

Peas of extra early, smooth class are the very first thing to be planted in the garden in spring. The wrinkled sorts follow a little later, as they are not quite so hardy. ‘Tall late varieties need brush or other support. By selecting sorts that do not grow much over two feet high. the necessity of providing brush may be avoided. Judicious selection of varieties and planting frequently for succession will give a full supply of the choicest green Peas almost during the entire season, with the possible exception of the hottest part of the summer. Open furrows three or four inches deep and threef eet apart: scatter the seed Peas into them and cover with hoe or plow. Cultivate like corn or beans. The late tall sorts may be planted in double rows and brush stuck in between them for support. All Garden Peas, however, require good, strong and fertileland. Heavy yields cannot be obtained on poor soil. The very dwarfest sorts of oe Amencan Wonder type will succeed only on the very richest garden land, and may be planted in rows a foot apart. 4=-Those Marked with a star (*) are wrinkled marrows, and unless otherwise stated should be sown thicker than the round Peas, and not until the ground has become warm as they are more liable to rot. They are the finest flavored of all Peas. Extra Early Dwarf Varieties. 1081. *American Wonder.

Howard Hurst, of Dorchester County, Md., writes as follows: x 4 f ; oP lant annually over 200 bushels of Gradus Peas. I have tried the stocks of these Peas from nearly ali the leading seedsmen,and I donot find any af their stocks to be as true andas superior as J. Bolgiano G& Son’s stock of Gradus Peas.

Prices subject to market changes. Special prices cheerfully given to large buyers on application. Be- cause of the scarcity of barrels in Maine we always ship in barrel sacks of 165 lbs. net. If wanted in barrels add 25c to the price of Barrel Sacks. Culture. Any good weil drained, fibrous loam will produce Potatoes under right climatic conditions. For early Potatoes, which mature in 8 to 10 weeks from planting, the soil must be particularly rich. A rich clover sod, manuredand broken the year before and planted to corn, beans, peas, oats, etc., is in best shape for giving a good yield of nice, clean Potatoes. Stable manure had better be applied to the land the year before, while some good complete fertilizer, at the rate of up to 1000 pounds per acre if applied broad- cast, or 400 to 600 pounds ifapplied mostly in the rows, may be used directly for the Potato crop. Open fur- rows 3ft. apart and 3 to 4 inches deep. Apply the fertilizer, and run the furrower or small plow again in the furrow to mix the fertilizer with the soil and leave a mellow seedbed. Then plant good-sized pieces, each containing not less than 2 or 3 eyes, 15 inches apart in the furrows for early Potatoes, and 18 inches apart for late ones. In some of the large Potato sections the Potatoes are always planted in check rows 3 feet apart each way. Cover withcoverer, smill plow or other suitable tool. Cultivate often. Spray with Bordeaux Arsenate of Lead Mixture as a protection from flea beetle, potato beetle and blight. 8 to 10 bushels will plant an acre. Trust Buster.

Spinach is an important market gardener’s crop, of easy culture. For spring and summer use sow in drills 1 foot apart and 1 inch deep, as early as the ground can be worked, and every two weeks fora succession. For winter and early spring use, sow in September in well manured ground; cover with straw on the approach of severe cold weather. The ground cannot be too rich; the stronger the ground’the more delicate and succulent will be the leaves. Light applications of nitrate of soda have often a magic effect on Spinach. Spinach is sometimes forced by sowing in early Septem- ber in frames, over which sash is placed during February and March, and further protected by mats during severe freezing weather. 1000.

STECKRUBE Navet Rabo Our Turnip and Ruta Baga Seeds are grown exclusively from perfect turnips, every one of which is selected and then transplanted for the growth of our seed. Hence, Turnip crops from our seeds must of necessity be very choice and most satisfactory in size, in trueness, in solidity and in beauty. Crops from our seed will prove infinitely better than much of the trashy seed sold for Turnip Seed, which for the careless manner in which it is grown and in inferiority of stock so frequently produces little more than Turnip Tops. Secure your supply from our superior stock. Culture. For early Turnips, sow as soon as the ground opens in spring. THE ExTRA EARLY PURPLE Top MILAN aud EXTRA EARLY WHITE MILAN Turnips are the earliest of all. being of very quick growth and fine table quality; they are both flat strap-leaved varieties. No. 327 should be sown from any time in July to first of August; but the other kinds, for Winter use, may besown from the middle of July until the end of August. Turnips are gen- erally sown broadcast, but much larger crops are obtained (particularly of the Ruta Bagas) by cultivating in drills 18 inches apart and thinning to 6 inches in the drill. Sow in drills, one pound to the acre; broadcast, two to three pounds to the acre. 313. Red Top White Giobe. The handsomest and most salable Turnip.

The advantage of sowing grasses and cloverseed in mixtures has long been recognized and the practice is increasing to a very remarkable extent all through the South. Weare the pioneer seedsmen in Baltimore in putting up special mixtures for different soils, and the results to our customers have been exceedingly satisfactory, result- ing in largely increased crops both of hay and pasturage. We will take pleasure in advising our customers as to suitable grasses for their soilsand purposes. We hvae in the Following Mixtures combined grasses suitable for the various soils and uses for which they are recommended. Those for permanent pastures are composed of grasses which succeed each other in growth, and give a succession from the first of spring until late in winter, while for those de- sired more for cutting for hay have combined grasses which ripen together. In all our mixtures we are introducing small quantities of Alfalfa Clover with the idea of inoculating the land with Alfalfa bacillus. Alfalfa revolutionizes farming but the bacillus must be established before the revolution can occur. The different mixtures are prepared both as to quantity and varieties as best adapted to the soils and situations for which they are recommended. In_all of our grass mixtures we use the very best seeds; the quality and purity of the seeds being our first consideration. The quantity handled enables us to give our customers the benefit of a very low price, even lower than if they purchased the seed separately.

Grass and Clover Seeds The Plain Truth About Grades The terms Fancy, Choice, Prime and Fair, by which different grades of Grass and Clover Seeds are usually known, have become so much abused by some dealers who apply these terms indiscriminately to any quality of seed that we many years ago established two grades of our own, called ‘‘Gold” and ‘Silver.”’ J. Bolgiano & Son “‘Gold’? Grade we intend shall invariably represent the best seed obtainable, both as respects purity and high germination. Anyone who buys our Gold grades may return them at our expense, if, upon receipt and examination, they are found in any respect unsatisfactory, and money paid for same, will be promptly refunded. Silver, the next best grade to Gold, but not of quite the same purity. It frequently happens that the demand is greater than the supply of Gold grades, as but a small proportion of the total seed gathered will make Gold; we then recommend our Silver grade as being the best on the market. We wish to call attention to the fact that in cleaning seed so as to make our Gold and Silver grades, there is much seed removed which, while not of sufficient high quality to grade Gold and Silver, is suitable for seed, and this is sold under lower grades, such as Fancy, Choice, Prime, ete. We do not quote these g1ades in our catalogue as the most of our sales are for Gold and Silver grades, Gra 1123, Tall Meadow Oat. Evergreen Grass. Yielding twice as much hay as Timothy or Orchard Grass, early as Orchard Grass with more leaf and affording better grazing, it is not strange that this grass is becoming so pop- ular. It will keep green all winter and allsummer; the drought of mid- summers or the cold of winter does not injure it. It starts growing very early in the Spring, can be cut twice for hay, will yield good grazing until late in the Fall. Itcontains more flesh and muscle-forming material than Timothy, but itis not so fattening. For hay, it should be cut while in bloom. Tall Meadow Oat Grass is best adapted for rather light and dry loamy uplands, but gives excellent results on nearly all soils and better re- sults than any other grass on light, medium soils. Sown alone use 2 to3 bus. to the acre, either Spring or Fall. Sown in mixture, use 1 bus. (11 1bs.) Tall Meadow Oat Grass 1 bus. (14 1bs.) Orchard Grass and 8 Ibs. Red Clover.

Our Prices Please Read Carefully Prices on Grass, Clover and Millet seed fluctuate so greatly that it is im- possible for anyone toaccurately gauge future values. Write us for our special prices when you are ready to buy. For the benefit of those who wish to order early, we quote the prices that are in effect at the time of going to press with this catalogue, on our Gold and Silver grades only. These prices will be maintained as long as possible, but we reserve the right to forward seed to the value of the money sent us, according as the market is higher orlower. We wish to assure those who buy late in the season and have nottime to write us for prices, that they will receive fair treatment at our hands, and unless otherwise advised we will reduce or add to the quantity ordered sufficient seed to give value for the amount of money remitted. We cannot emphasize the fact too strongly to those who do not wish to buy now, that it is to their advantage to write for our Special Price List, and samples of our Gold grade of any variety of seed they want. A very large percentage of our customers now purchase our Gold grades of grass, clover and millet seeds exclusively, and will not have any other. They have found it to their interest to pay a little more for this grade and be absolutely assured that they are getting the very best seed that money can buy anywhere at any price. Sses 1114. Orchard Grass. One of the best and most reliable grasses for the Mid- dle and Southern States, either for hay or pasture. It succeeds well on nearly all soils. but does best on uplands, loamy or moderately stiff soils. Itstarts early in the spring and continues well into winter. It is of quick growth, and is relished by stock especially when young and bears close grazing. It makes excellent hay, and gives the very best results mixed and grown with Tall Meadow Oat Grass and Red Clover. Itshould be cut when in blossom, as the hay is injured if the seed is allowed toripen. Itcan be sown in the spring or fall, either with grain or alone.

Bolgiano & Son, Seedmen, Baltimore, Md. Results of Inoculation as Shown in the Yield Taken From a Plot of Alfalfa 4 Feet Square. Alfalfa---Clovers---Soja Beans---Cow Peas and all other pod growing plants cal’ed Jegumes enrich the soil through the action of small bacteria growing upon their roots. These bacteria live only upon the roots of legumes and by an action of their bodies extract the free nitrogen of the air,and deposit around themselves as nitrates, thus forming little sacks or nodules on the roots of the growing plants. c amounts unused in the soil ready for future crops or other crops growing at the same time with the legumes. These sacks furnish the growing plant with all the nitrates it requires, and still leaves large Quoting from bulletin issued by the Dept. of Agriculture on January 1908, “It is worse than useless to attempt to grow any leguminous crop without being certain of the presence of the bacteria which enable the plants to fix free nitrogen.” The method of transfer of soil for inoculation is both costly and dangerous,—weed seed, soil and plant diseases are transferred in this way. All innoculations should be done by means of the pure cultures of nitrogen-gathering bacteria which are free from contamination and contain only active bacteria of the proper kind. These standard innoculatious are known as Farmogerm, and we strongly advise the use of the cultures whenever you plant legumes of any description. mu ARMO GE y nsaprnal Mark wasrsyttitittly HIGH-BRED NITROGEN GATHERING BACTERIA Fertilizer Values of well inoculated legumes have long been determined. Itis shown in Bulletin No. 71, issued by the U. S. Department of Agriculture that tests coveringa large part of the country prove that legumes will deposit 1000 lbs. of nitrates per acre. This means that your most expensive commercial fertilizer is ab- solutely unnecessary when you plant legumes that are perfectly inoculated, sown and planted in properly prepared land. Farmogerm On Beans Dr. C. R. Ward of Northome, Minn., writes March 17th, 1911. “I wishyou could have seen some Wax Beans I vatsed last Summer using Farmogerm on the Seed. TI planted in ground where the year before the pods were so specked that most of them could not beealen. Thisyear, using Farmogerm, the pods wereuntform in stze and length, from 634 to 7% inches long, and were absolutety perfect, except one pod which had one little dark brown speck on tt. The bushes were filled asfull of fine pods as any picture you ever saw in a seed catalog.” 10 Soja Bean Plants Not Inoculated Sacks of Nitrates on Soja Bean Roots Peas, Beans, Sweet Peas yield earlier, longer and better when treated with Farmogerm. Farmogerm is indorsed by farmers, Federal and State Agricultural Departments and private estates.

Farmogerm and Alfalfa In Maryland On Sept. 12th, 1911, Mr. S. N.

Increased Crops area well established certainty in all instances where inoculations are used together with proper culture methods. Not only is the crop increased in weight, but in its richness, The U. S. Dept. of Agriculture, Bulletin No, 71 substantiates these statements. Why not increase your farm yields without extra labor and at practically no extra cost. Farmogerm On Alfalfa Mr. Frank S. Wailker of Dudilev, Mass., writes Oct. 28th, 1911. “I received vour request and would say in veply, that the piece I used the‘ Farmogerm”’ on, I have cut three times and ts now about six inches high, which I shall not cut. I have another prece that I did not use ‘Farmogerm’ on that has not amounted to anything.” 10 Soja Bean Plants Inoculated Trustworthy Field Seeds For 1912 51 Grasses Bolgiano’s “Gold” Brand Seeds are Standard The prices herein are based on values at time of going topress with this catalogue.

Timoth Of Hay Grasses Timothy is one of the most popular, nutritious and salable. y Onclay or heavy loams, lowlands or in mountainous districts provided there is an abundance of moisture, it produces the very best results. On sandy or light loamy ground, it does not do so well as Orchard, Tall Meadow Oat or Red Top Grass. If grazed or cut too close, the stand of Timothy will be seriously injured, besides it does not form as good grazing as many other grasses. From 1% to 3 tons of fine hay to the acre.

This makes the best, sweetest and most nutritious pasture for all kinds of stock. Kentucky has long been famous for its high bred horses and its Blue Grass pastures. Itis now possible to establish on most any farm a Blue Grass pasture of grecnest verdure which will give very profitable returns. This grass is the first to start up in the spring and remains green until snow flies in the fall. Itis very hardy and is uninjured by cold or dry weather, hot sun or tramping of hoofs. Theroots are so thick and stontthat they form a tough sod. Blue Grass requires about two years to get well started and for that reason it is often sown in mixture with other grasses. It willdo wellonalmostany land. Sow in the fallor spring at the rate of two tothree bushels peracre. ‘Gold’? Brand Seed, Lb. 30c. Bu. of 14 Lbs. $3.35. “Silver? Choice, $3.25.

Itis rather late in starling in spring, and matures its crop the same time as Timothy. Is excel- Je itly adap‘ed for seeding with Timothy for hay,and furnishes excellent pasturage afterward.

The roots push through the soil and form fresh plants on every side. Noamountof cold seems to be able to killit. It bears up well under hot summer suns. It will grow under conditions that are very dry, and it canalso stand being covered with water, not deep of course, for one or two weeks in early spring. It is an abundant producer of leavesandis much relished as pasture | and hay. It is about equally nutritious with timothy. This grass may be sown at any time of the year when the ground is bare, but the best season isin the spring, and with or with- outa nurse crop. If sown witha nurse crop that crop should be sown thinly. 15 pounds of good Bromus Inermis an acreis sufficient.

Clovers Bolgiano’s “Gold” Brand Seeds Are Standard The prices herein are based on values at time of going to press with this Catalogue. They are subject to market fluctuations. Clover is a necessity on every farm and will add millions of dollars to the value of land and crops. Looking to the future, no time should be lost in introducing the bacilliof the Red and Alfalfa Clovers. The use of nitro culturesmay tend to hasten their establishment, but nature’s way and the best way is to use a small quantity of seed, say a pound or two each of Red and Alfalfa Clover to the acre with whatever crop you are seeding. After a little you have the prized bacilliin your land, then you may safely cali your farm doubled in value, from a producing standpoint. Alfalfa Seed Alfalfa yields splendidly throughout the South, Yielding 4 or 6 Cuttings Per « Year. Increasing Yield Each Successive Year. 1128. Alfalfa ranks higher than timothy hay in feeding value. In fact it might be termed both corn and hay, asit is almost a complete food. Experiment stations place the feeding value of Alfalfa hay at $20 per ton, as against timothy hay at $12 per ton. This, with thefact that Alfalfa will, under favorable circumstances, after a good stand is secured, give 4 or 6 cuttings per year, and willeasily yield on good land, 6 to 16 tons of splendid hay per year, shows what a valuable crop itis. Lands in the Western States that are well set in Alfalfa sell readily at from $100 to $200 per acre; so that a crop of this kind pays forthe little extra care and preparation given to secure good stands and good crops, better to have five acres well set in Alfalfa, by thorough preparation, than to attempt to put in ten acres without first-class preparation. The acreage of Alfalfa is increasing very largely all over the Middle and Southern States, our farmers are fast beginning to realize what a valuable crop it is for this section. Alfalfa will succeed and do well on any good loamy, well-drained soil, but the land must be well and thoroughly prepared for the best results. The plant is rather slender when it first starts, and must be grown under favorable conditions, in order to get ahead of the weedsand other grasses which would, under ordinary circumstances, spring up naturally and check it or smotherit out. Alfalfa should always be cut when just commencing to bloom, whether the plants be largeor small. If the seed is allowed to form, the growth of the plant ceases. It should never be used for pasture, it is too valuable asa hay pro- ducer torisk injury from stock. Alfalfa can be sown either in the Spring or Fall. The require- ments to obtain good stands and good crops is to sow in good, rich soil and give thorough prepara- tion. A heavy application of lime is of decided benefit—2,000 to 5,000 lbs, per acre. Alfalfa is usually sown broadcast, at the rate of 20 to 30 Ibs. to the acre, although some of our customers claim that thicker seedings give better crop results. March and Aprilare the best months for seeding in the Spring, and the latter part of August and during September the best in the Fall. Our Allalfa seed is the highest grade, strong-germinating seed of the best and cleanest quality it is possible to procure. The quality and germination of the seed is a prime requisite for success with this crop. Land well set in Alfalfa is better than a bank account, producing continuously increasing crops for years and is worth a little trouble and expense to secure a first-class stand.

Clover Medium Red Clover adds greatly to the fertility of the land on which it is grown. It does not exhaust the soil, but enriches it. It makes two crops each year. The first is usually cut when it is in blossom for hay, the last crop may he harvested for seed, cut for hay, or plowed under to add fertility to the soil. For hay,it is particularly well adapted for sowing with Orchard and Tall Meadow Grass, as it ripens at the same time, and sowing these three grasses together will give larger yields and better quality hay than sowingeither alone. It isalsolargely sown with other grasses, both for hay and pasturage. Information as to quantities required per acre. when sown in combination with other grasses will be found under the heading of Orchard Grass, Tall Meadow Oat Grass and Timothy.

If fed to milch cows, when ina green state, pods, vines and all, the flow of milk will be almost doubled. - Peas area paying crop and can be profitably planted in many ways. First. When sown aloneabout three bushels are required to the acre. They can be matured and threshed when dry. The yield will vary from 30 to 60 bushels an acre. Second. Peas and oats are frequently sown together, using 1% bushel of peas and 2 bushels of oats anacre. By so doing a double crop can be secured. They can be threshed at one time and readily separated in cleaning. Third. They can be sown alone or with oats and fed green. It is surprising the amount of fodder which is produced in this way. If sown together, the peas should b= sown first and plowed under about four inches deep; the oats may then be drilled in. Fourth.

Operation A study of the accompanying illustration shows the water reservoir (E), the false bottom (D). Sponges through false bottom (CC), Soil (B), and body of box (A.) In the right hand corner of the box will be noted a tube which extends from reservoir upward through false bottom and _ soil to top. This is for the purpose of pouring water, when needed, into the reservoir. The sponges draw up the water slowly and feed the roots of the plant in exactly the right amount to make the life and growth of the plant a certainty. DRAIN- AGE, which is of utmost importance in plant culture, is pro- vided by a small opening in one end immediately above the line of the false bottom, which prevents any possibility of a heavy downpour of rain ever drowning out the plants. It will be noted that this plan is what is known as Sub-irrigation and is conceded by all authorities to be the most perfect plan ever devised for the growth of any kind of plant life. Our method of under-watering prevents any possibility of the surface of the soil becoming hardened or baked as in the surface watered box or pot. This one fact saves the life of many valuable plants. A liberal supply of air to the roots is constantly maintained through the sponges and the soil will always be found mealy and loose, and moisture is always evenly distributed from top to bottom of soil. You may think you cannot grow Flowers or Ferns in your home, but a trial of Illinois Self-Watering Flower Boxes will convince you that you are mistaken. Top diameter 6in.

Target Brand Insecticide Target Brand Scale Destroyer, This pre- paration is the most effective and practical means of controlling the San Jose scale, which has yet been found. It destroys insect life by contact— that means it kills scales, larvae, insect eggs, and all kinds of insects, either by absorption of the oil, or the formation of the fatal film, which de- stroys life by suffocation. This preparation con- tains a combination of mineral and vegetable oils, and is easily mixed with water. When diluted with 19 parts of water, it represents a5 perecent, solution of mineral oil sufficiently strong to be fatal to insect life, and yet remain perfectly harm- less to buds, bark and the growth of the tree. It can be diluted with either warm or cold water, and represents the cheapest, easiest to prepare, and the most reliable spray for fruit growing either on a large or small scale. TRADE ARR.

For The Orchardist And Poultryman. 79 The New “Kant-Klog” Sprayer Kant-Klog Sprayer style ‘“G’’ is operated by compressed air, with a patented Kant-Klog noz- zle that throws nine different sizes of round or flat sprays and solid streams. The sprayer body is made of heavy galvanized steel: Top and bottom are dome shaped; joined to body under heavy pressure, making a complete double seam. The air pump is made of heavy brass two inches in diameter, hose couplings are solid brass, standard cut ends, heavily ribbed to prevent hose from slipping off. A few seconds working of the air pump thoroughly agitates the solution and charges the sprayer with compressed air. This being a very powerful and elastic force, will, as soon as the thumb presses the ‘‘shut-off,’’ force out the liquid in the form of a spray or a solid continuous stream as desired. After sprayer is charged you need not stop for anything; just walk along from one row to another, the machine will supply sufficient spray to enable you to do the work as fastas youcan walk. When properly charged,the tank holds 3 gallons of solution and 1 gallon of compressed air: and two workings of the air pump will discharge the entire contents. Usedin greenhouses, poultry houses, the garden and for all plant life including trees. The‘ Kant-Klog” nozzle furnished with each machine without extra cost, and special attention is called to this nozzle, as it is the only one that can be cleaned without stopping the spray or removing the nozzle.
