NINETY-SIXTH YEAR OF THE ALBANY SEED STORE

1928

XO CUSTOMERS

^rHE SEEDS I offer for sale are of my own growing and importing, and I take the greatest
1|L care in their production to have them pure and true to name, testing everything for germina-
tion before selling, making a thorough business of it, and never send out anything that does
not grow; this, taken in connection with the system of furnishing the best stock seeds and
carefully watching the crops, gives my customers the most ample protection. The seeds offered in
this Catalogue are of the very best sorts and strains to be obtained ; they comprise all the best standard
kinds and many new varieties of merit.

Thanking you for your patronage during the past, I hope for a continuance of the same this
season.

How to Order. — In writing your order, do it is plainly as possible, and be sure to sign your name
distinctly, giving the post-office address, county and state in full, and also express office, for
many times it is better to send by express than by mail. Each year we have orders we cannot fill
because they are unsigned. Make your order out as soon as possible. It will be an advantage to
you and a favor to us, as later in the season prices are liable to advance.

We Fill Orders Promptly. — We aim to fill orders and dispatch them immediately after receipt,
unless some special cause prevents, in which case acknowledgment is made and explanation given.
Where no shipping instructions are given, we send by the best route possible. Packages too large to
send by mail we shall send either by express or freight. We fill an order for ten cents worth of seed
with the same promptness and care as one for fifty dollars.

How to Remit. — Send money by post-office or express money order, registered letter or draft.
We guarantee the safe arrival of money sent in this way. Postage stamps received as cash when
notes are not obtainable, or to make proper change. (Two-cent stamps preferred.)

We Pay the Postage to all parts of the United States on the seeds mentioned in this Catalogue
in packets, ounces and one pounds, without adding anything to the list price.

Please Observe that though we prepay the postage on seeds, as above stated, we make no
addition to our Catalogue prices to cover this outlay. When ordering in quantities over one pound
add postage at parcel post rates.

Remember the mail and express bring our store to your door. It costs no more to buy of us
from a distance than if you came into our store and purchased seed over our counter.

Testing. — All our seeds are thoroughly tested in a most careful manner before we sell them, and
only those that grow well do we send out. This, in connection with our system of having to do only
with the best stocks, and carefully watching the crops, affords ourselves and customers the best
protection possible.

My long experience for the past fifty years in the growing, selecting and improving of stocks
enables me to supply customers with seeds that cannot be surpassed.

I do not warrant seed, because, as is well known, so many causes may, and often do, prevent
the best seeds from growing and producing crops, from no fault of the seeds. We, therefore, in
common with all other reliable seedsmen, wish it distinctly understood that, while we do not send
out any seeds that we do not believe to be of the best quality, we sell no seeds with warranty,
express or implied, in any respect, and will not be in any way responsible for the crop. If the pur¬
chaser does not accept the seeds on these terms they must be returned at once, and the money
that has been paid for the same will be refunded.

CHICORY, WITLOOF OR FRENCH ENDIVE. The seed should be sown during June in the open
ground in drills twelve to fourteen inches apart, in deep rich soil. Allow the plants to grow
until November, keeping free from weeds and well cultivated. Then take up the roots and trim
off the leaves to about one inch from the neck; break off all side shoots so to leave the root
smooth, resembling a smooth parsnip root. Cut off roots at bottom, leaving them a uniform
length, eight to ten inches. Plant roots in upright position in a trench sixteen to eighteen
inches deep, two inches apart. This will leave the top of the roots about eight inches below the

MAINE SEED POTATOES

IRISH COBBLER POTATOES

Prices Subject to Variations of the Market. Sold in Sacks containing 150 lbs. of Potatoes.

’ Price on Application.

A good sandy loam produces the best potatoes, but they can be grown on all kinds of soil. New or pasture
land, with the turf freshly turned, produces the finest crop. Make furrows of good depth, three feet apart
Scatter a liberal dressing of phosphate or decayed stable manure along the drill and set the seed about ten inches
apart in the rows. Cover with about two inches of soil, and begin to cultivate when the plants are well up.
At each successive hoeing bring additional soil about the plants. Four barrels are sufficient to plant one acre
in drills.

These potatoes are grown especially for seed, in Maine, and are entirely free from rot or powdery
scab. They are true to name, clean and smooth, and will be very desirable to plant, as they will insure
earlier and better sized crops than could be had from any grown about here. Changing your seed will improve
your crop and produce a much better quality and larger yield. In this way you will be more than repaid for
the money expended.

Sow early varieties in the Spring, as early as the ground can be worked, in drills ten inches apart, covering the seed halt an inch deep;
thin the plants to an inch apart in the row. As they are more succulent and tender when grown quickly, a rich, moist, sandy soil should
be selected, and frequently watered in dry weather. For a succession sow every two weeks till midsummer.

TOMATO

Sow in hotbeds in March. Transplant to open ground when the weather becomes warm and settled, or
sow in the open ground in May and transplant when plants are six inches high. The richer the soil the
more handsome and plentiful the fruit; but to have the fruit ripen as early as possible, select rather light
soil and a sunny location. Plant in hills four feet apart each way. After the fruit is set, pinch off the ends to
check growth; gradually strip off the leaves to expose the fruit to the sun.

PRICE’S FINE MIXED LAWN GRASS is composed of a mixture of the best varieties of fine
swa ding grasses, especially adapted for seeding down lawns, door-yards., cemetery lots, etc., in this
climate. It makes a short top and strong root, and when grown produces a soft, compact, velvety turf.
A beautiful lawn can only be had by using a good r. ixture of grasses. By using our mixture and cut¬
ting often, when grown, a beautiful green swar.! can be obtained. We have made this mixture a careful
study, and it has given great satisfaction. In making a Lawn the ground should have a heavy coat of
stable or sheep manure, which should be spaded or plowed in to the depth of 12 inches, the soil pulverized
fine, then top-dress with sheep mat ure and rake in thoroughly; all stones and roots should be removed,
there should be no depressions where water could stand. The seed should be sown evenly and plenti¬
fully (using about 6 bushels to the acre), be sure to. cover all parts of the ground carefully, then rake
lightly in and roll with a Garden Roller if possible, if not use a heavy plank, as it is very necessary the
ground should be firm after seed is sown, the firmer the ground the quicker the seed will start. To renew
an old lawn, a good liberal dressing of Sheep Manure should be applied and then raked thoroughly, sow
seed evenly, covering all parts of the ground plentifully and rake lightly in; this should be done when
grass is free from moisture or the seed and fertilizer will adhere to the grass. Seed can be sown early
in Spring from March to June or in the Fall as late as the middle of October. Sowing a good quality of
Lawn Grass will give you a much better Lawn than you could obtain by sodding, as most sod is full of
weeds

Annuals, Biennials and Perennials and Culture Directions.

Annuals are plants which, raised from seed, perfect the flowers, ripen their seed and perish the same sea¬
son. There are some, such as Verbena, Eschscholtzia, cultivated as annuals, that are only such in a northern
climate, being in their own congenial region biennials and perennials. Biennials are those which grow the
first season, flower the next, and then die. They may sometimes be induced to flower for two or three sue
cessive seasons, by preventing them from going to seed. Perennials are those which live and continue
to blossom several years. If planted very early in borders, or brought forward in windows or hot-beds,
they will bloom the first season. Many of them are hardy enough to stand the coldest of our Winters,
dying down every season, and coming up in the Spring from the old roots.

Annuals are divided in two classes, Hardy and Half-hardy. The Hardy can be sown in April or May
in the open ground, or for early flowering started in pots or pans in the house, greenhouse or hot-bed, and
planted out as soon as ground is warm. Half-hardy should be started in the house, greenhouse or hot-bed.
and planted out in beds or borders in May, or they can be sown in the open ground about the middle of May.

Biennials and Perennials may be sown in the Spring as early as annuals — they need the same
treatment, and should be planted out the following Autumn in situations where they are to flower. Can
be sown in the Autumn, selecting as cool and damp a bed as possible, keeping the ground shaded and
moist by frequent waterings until plants appear.

Greenhouse seeds should be sown in pots or pans half full of drainage; cover this with rough siftings
of mould, and the surface with fine soil, moisten, using a fine rose. Sow seeds evenly over the surface, cover
very lightly, keeping from the rays of the sun until the plants show the third leaf, then transplant into
seed pans three-fourths of an inch apart, keeping them under a frame until perfectly recovered, giving a little
air to strengthen them. As soon as they begin to touch each other transplant into small pots and keep
in a cool, airy part of the greenhouse near the glass, repotting them when necessary.

Great care should be taken in the preparation of the soil for sowing the smaller kinds of seeds; the
ground should be made rich with sheep manure, some good fertilizer or thoroughly rotted manure, dug
deeply, well raked, made very fine and pliable, so the roots can penetrate and the soil will not bake in the
sun after watering. The seed should be sown very thinly, covered very lightly and pressed firmly and
carefully into the ground. As a rule small seeds should not be covered over one-eighth of an inch deep,
the larger ones, like Morning Glory Balsams, etc., three-fourths of an inch; very fine seeds should be
sown on the surface, merely dusting them over with a little earth and gently press down with a smooth
board. Keep the ground free from weeds and loosen the ground often, so rain will penetrate. In watering,
use water that is not too cold; distribute it in the evening through a rose, so it will not wash the soil
over the growing seed or injure the foliage or expanding buds.

Hot-bed for Seedlings. In making a hot-bed the preparation of manure is a matter of importance, and
it should be well worked previous to being used, if the bed be expected to retain its usefulness for any length
of time. If obtained fresh, and found to be too dry, it should be well watered and thrown lightly together
to ferment; this will take place in a few days, and from three to four days afterward it should be com¬
pletely turned, shaken and mixed; a second turning may be required, although one is usually sufficient.
When thus cleaned of rankness the bed can be made. The place should be chosen where it is dry under¬
neath, sheltered from the north as much as possible, and fully exposed to the sun. It should be built up
from two feet six inches to four feet high, and wider by six inches every way than the frame to be placed
upon it. The manure should be well shaken and mixed, while being put together, and firmly pressed by the
feet. The frame should be placed on this and kept closed until the heat rises, and three or four inches
of sifted sand or light soil placed on the surface of the bed. In a few days it will be ready for use; but
air should be given night and day while there is any danger from the rank steam. If the sand or soil are
drawn away from the sides of the bed, they should be replaced. When the hot-bed is used for seed only,
nothing further is necessary; the heat of which will soon cause them to germinate; as this will after some
time decline, a lining should be added, that is, fresh, hot, fermented, but not rank, manure, applied about
a foot in width all around the bed; this will renew its strength.

Cold Frames are formed by placing an ordinary hot-bed frame upon a bed of light, rich soil in some
warm, sheltered place in the garden, where it will be protected from cold winds. They should both be
shaded from the sun by mats during the middle of the day and covered at night.

FERTILIZERS

Pulverized Sheep Manure

Nothing can equal this for LAWNS, PLANTS, and Gard ms, as it is the strongest of ah natural
manures, chemical analysis showing it to contain a higher per cent, of fertilizing ingredients — ammonia,
phosphoric acid and potash — than in any animal f< utilizer in use. It is sterilized to mil all foul
seeds and ground fine. It is clean, easily and quickly applied, has no unpleasant odor, will not
kill or bum the grass like the commercial fertilizers, will not sow a crop of noxious weeds for you like
Barnyard or Stable manure to fill your lawns, it is immediate in its effect and lasting.

A beautiful Lawn is a great attraction to a home and as the
constant growing and cutting of grass wall exhaust the soil it
makes it necessary to enrich it in order to keep your lawn in a
state of perfection. To do this some use Bam Manure, which is
bulky, unsightly and introduces seeds of obnoxious weeds and
grasses.

A few dollars spent in Sheen Manure will not only give you
a beautiful lawn, but will preserve it and be a saving of money
in the long run, as it is of full strength, and is very easily handled.

This makes it the most economical food for lawns and plants that
t is possible to obtain.

FOR GARDENS, dig into the soil when sowing the seed
or setting out plants and it will promote a rapid strong ^owth of flowers or vegetables.

FOR YOUNG TREES or BUSHES, it makes the hnest mulch, after watering it becomes a very
strong solution, soaking the roots thoroughly with a needed food and they will show the good effects
in a very few days after using.

FOR PLANTS and FLOWERS, it is the most nutritious food that can be applied, as a
liquid dressing using five pounds to five gallons of water and may be used with perfect safety, or
sprinkle it dry around the plants, working it into the ground. Remember, it will not injure the
most sensitive plant but will produce healthy plants, with rich blossoms.

DIRECTIONS. Sprinkle thickly over the grass early in the Spring and once or twice in the
Summer or any time during the growing season, using about 100 lbs. to 2,000 square feet, or to a
space of 50 feet one way by 45 feet the other ; 50 lbs. will cover 25 by 23 feet. If the season is dry,
wet it down or sow just before rain. If you have only a small place it is well to buy a bag, as yon
can use it on your grass and gardens early and through the season as it keeps in good condition
and is convenient to have on hand. Put up in 100 lbs., 50 lbs. and 25 lb. bags; 10 lbs., 5 lb. and
1 lb. packages. Prices of the above on application.

NITRATE OF SODA. Is valuable solely for
the Nitrogen it contains, and is used chiefly as a
simulant to force slow-growing grass or back¬
ward crops. It is quick in its action, forcing the
plants along to maturity, and can be used alone or
mixed with some sort of fertilizer.

HIGH GRADE FERTILIZER. Fertilizers are
very high in Ammonia, Nitrogen Phosphoric Acid,
and must not be classed with the low grades often
called by the same name, but undesirable to grow
good crops.

PRICES OF THE

GROUND BONE. For Trees, Grapevines,
Currant Bushes, or any thing that has heavy per¬
manent root growth, as it is slow in effect.

ACID PHOSPHATE AND HUMIS.

BOWKER’S PLANT FOOD. For House

Plants, Palms, Ferns, etc.

FERTILIZERS are put up in 100 lb., 50 lb.,

DISINFECTANTS AND INSECTICIDES FOR

SPRAYING.

When ordered by mail add postage at Parcel Post Rates. Liquids cannot be sent by mail.

Spraying is no longer an experiment; it is an accepted practice, if you desire to grow Perfect
Vegetables, Fruit or Flowers. If you wish success with fruit you will have to spray your trees.
It is impossible to raise fruit successfully without spraying. Spray, not sprinkle, until the solution
begins to drip from the leaf.

WHEN TO SPRAY. — The time of making the application varies with the season. As a rule,
for garden fruits, when the insects first appear; for orchard fruits, or the more common insects,
just before the fruit buds open, and just after the blossoms fall. Never spray a tree when in
blossom.

With the special pumps and prepared insecticides now on the market, the labor of successfully
combating with nearly all injurious insects is very easy. We carry in stock the very best and most
complete J«ne of insecticides, also, fungicides, spray pumps, hose and nozzles.
