Keep the soil mellow and free from weeds during the summer and in the fall or succeeding spring the plants should be set about one foot apart and the crown four inches below the surface. The beds should be narrow so as to permit of cutting to the center. Before winter cover the transplanted beds with about four inches of manure. Salt is an excellent manure for asparagus. Sow a little on the surface in the spring and it will keep down the weeds. The young tops may be cut for the table the second summer, but not very freely until the third. Once ounce will sow about 50 feet of drill for transplanting and produce about 300 plants. CONOVER COLLOSAL — A mammoth sort THE PALMETTO— This variety is earlier frequently sending up fifteen to thirty sprouts than others, a better yielder ; more even and from one to one and a hilf inches m dia¬ meter from a single plant and spreading less regular in growth, and is fast becoming the than most sorts.

BEANS CULTURE — Do not plant them until the ground becomes dry and warm. Bush beans may be planted about 2 inches deep in drills from 24 to 3 0 inches apart according to variety and soil, placing the seed 3 inches apart or 4 seeds in hills 2 4 inches apart each way; 2 pounds per 100 foot drill. DWARF BLACK WAX — A very superior snap-short wax bean ; ripening among the first earliest, and having the best characteristics. Pods round, yellowish white, fine flavor. BLACK WAX BEANS DAVIS’ WHITE WAX — Immensely productive, bearing large, handsome, straight pods five to six inches in length. The pods are almost solid flesh and with decided strings when of good size, one of the best for canners, as it does not dis¬ color. It is also a good shipper. The dry seed, being white and of medium size, is desirable also for winter market as a shell bean, REFUGEE OR ONE THOUSAND TO ONE— Pods about 5 inches long. Fine for late planting especially for canning, being almost stringless. IMPROVED GOLDEN WAX — A medium early and heavy cropper, on vines of bushy growth, a good rust-resister.

Possesses all the good points of the Golden Wax, but is larger in pod and much more prolific ; of tender, melting flavor at all times of its growth. DAVIS KIDNEY WAX — Vines vigorous and very prolific, bear handsome, waxy white pods 7 inches long ; the finest ap¬ pearing of all early wax beans. To make this variety entirely rust-proof we select constantly and with great care. The dried beans are kidney-shaped clear white, splendid for baking ; but grown for Snap Beans they should be used while young, when free from strings. One pound will plant about 60 feet of drill, 60 to 80 pounds for one acre. Not postpaid. Per pkt., 10c; % lb., 20c; 1 lb., 30c; 5 lb., $1.25.

Not Postpaid KENTUCKY WONDER BEANS BROCCOLI CULTURE — Sow early sorts as soon as the ground can be worked in the spring, in shallow drills, drawn three of four inches apart. Plant out two feet apart each way when the plants are about four inches high. Cultivate the same as cabbage, in rich soil. Use the same remedy for insect attacks as are recommended for cabbage. They are excellent and deserve much wider culture this is usual in this country. Nearly allied to the Cauliflower, but more hardier. It succeeds best in a moist and rather cold atmosphere. LARGE WHITE MAMMOTH — A valuable variety, with very large, firm heads. Pkt., 5c ; oz., 25c ; ^4 lb., 75c. 4 Our Lawn Seed is the Very Best Grade BRUSSELS SPROUTS CULTURE — Sow in May in the same manner as Cauli¬ flower and transplant in July, one foot apart, in the rows which should be one and one-half feet apart. In gardens, both large and small, Brussels Sprouts are, without exception, the very best winter vegetable that can be grown. The real sprout is not much larger than a marble, and as firm and hard almost as the stalk itself. These are the sort which cooks prefer. They strip off the outer covering, cook them whole, and serve them up artistically in that fashion. When cooked through and no more, such Sprouts melt in the mouth like the tender- est Cauliflower, and are equally as good. (Postage paid on these.) This is one of the best vegetables for winter use, produc¬ ing from the axils of the leaves an abundance of sprouts re¬ sembling small cabbages; an excellent, mild flavor. It is a delicacy much esteemed in Europe. Sow in seed-bed middle of spring and transplant and manage as winter cabbage. DWARF IMPROVED — A variety producing compact ODENSE MARKET — Produces an abundant crop of firm, sprouts of excellent quality. Pkt., 5c ; oz., 15c ; % lb., 30c ; 1 well formed sprouts, thickly set around. Pkt., 10c ; oz., 50c ; b.. $1.00. H lb. $1.50; 1 lb., $5.00. BEETS CULTURE — Sow as early in the spring as the ground can be worked and every two weeks after for a succession up to the first week of July. For general soil should be light sandy loam, well enriched with stable manure and plowed and harrowed until very fine. Sow in drills one foot to fifteen inches part, and when well up, thin to from four to six inches. The young beets pulled out of the rows are excellent used as greens. crop sow about the middle of May. The EARLY BLOOD RED TUR¬ NIP — Here we have the old stand-by, the turnip beet with its dark red color, well known to so many homesteads. It is useless to occupy space in des¬ cribing it, suffice to say, it is the best variety for family use. EXTRA EARLY FLAT EGYPTIAN— Slightly earlier than Crosby’s Egyptian but not quite as large. Rich deep red with sweet tender flesh, excel¬ lent for market or home gar¬ den. CROSBY’S EGYPTIAN— Grown extensively by market gardeners on account of its smooth skin and dark red color. Roots are almost round with very small crown of leaves. DETROIT DARK RED— One of the best for market and home garden. Deep rich r ed, very desirable for canning. Leaves dark green, shaded with red. It is unsurpassed in quality. For general purposes we recommend this as the best beet for the home garden. One ounce will sow 60 feet of drill; six to eight pounds for one acre in drills. Ready for table use in 40 to 60 days. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; *4 lb., 25c; 1 lb., 75c, Postpaid. EARLY BLOOD TURNIP BEETS STOCK BEETS Not Postpaid 1 lb., 50c; 10 lbs., $4.50. Nothing better for cattle, hogs and sheep. Oz, 5c; lb., 25c; 1 lb., 55c; 10 lbs., $5.00. Postpaid. CULTURE — As all Mangels require a deep soil in order to grow well, plow and sub-soil at least a foot to 18 inches and apply plenty rich stable manure. Sow in May or June, in rows eigh¬ teen inches to two feet apart, and thin to eighteen inches in rows. NEW MANGEL BEET SLUDSTRUP— It is the largest producer of any of the mangels, often yielding 60 tons to the GOLDEN TANKARD MANGEL — Shape, cylindrical ; color deep, rich yellow ; flesh yellow, circled with white. Unequalled for feeding stock. It is an enormous cropper. MAMMOTH LONG RED — A particularly fine stock of Mangel. The roots attain enormous size, smooth and regular in shape. It grows well above ground and is easily pulled. The best variety for deep loose soil. acre. It grows largely above the ground and is very easy to harvest. Color, a golen yellow. In nutrition it surpasses all others and is the best keeper on the list. TRY IT. CARPENTER SEED COMPANY For Greens Throughout the Summer SWISS CHARD A Cheap Feed for Poultry SWISS CHARD— *‘CUT AND COME AGAIN” This vegetable gives maximum returns for little care and space ; it yields a constant crop from J uly to winter. If your garden space is limited, Swiss Chard must have a place, for in proportion to ground accupied, Swiss Chard produces more food for the table than almost any other vegetable. The leaves are used for greens the sam as spinach or beet tops. Sow early in spring, in rows 16 inches apart, and thin out to 6 inches in the rows. It can be used all Summer when spinach is not available. 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 in¬ creases its tenderness. Gardeners use Swiss Chard as a catch crop, giving quick results on temporarily idle spaces. The investment is small and returns large. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; 1-4 lb., 25c ; 1 lb., 75c, Postpaid. LUCULLUS SWISS CHARD — A new Moss Curled sort Very large leaves. The mid-ribs are very broad and form a good substitute for asparagus during the summer months. GIANT HALF-SUGAR — This magnificent half-sugar beet while giving nearly as large a yield of easily grown and har¬ vested roots as a crop of mammoth Long Red Mangels, supplies a food of very much higher nutritive value, the roots for feeding purposes being really more valuable, pound for pound, than those of the very best strains of sugar beet, and the yield under equally favorable conditions is more than double. The roots grow partly out of the ground and crop can be harvested and stored at less expense. We are certain that everyone who plants this variety and grows it with care will be much pleased. To the Stockgrowers : We wish to call special attention to stock beets and carrots as a feed for cattle, horses, hogs, sheep, etc. Mangel or stock beets and sugar beets yield from 30 to 50 tons per acre, and we consider a ton of them as valuable for feed as a ton of hay. With a little extra work they can be kept all winter and there is nothing that produces as much milk as beets and carrots — car¬ rots add that splendid color to butter which helps bring the price. We would advise extensive planting. The best ones are Giant-Half Sugar, Large Red Mangel and Golden Tankard beets ; Yellow and White Belgian, and Long Orange carrots. Do not fail to include these in your order for seeds for spring planting* SUGAR BEETS Usually planted for sugar making. On account of the amount of saccharine contained in the Sugar Beet, it is much relished by stock, and as a fattener it is very desirable, but does not yield the tonnage that is common with the regular Mangel Wurtzels and the Half-Sugar Stock Beets. Culture same as stock beets. Klein Wenzleben — This variety is the best in cul¬ tivation not largest, but richest in saccharine. Oz., 5c ; lb., 25c ; 1 lb., 50c ; 10 lbs., $4.50, postpaid. Our Seeds Are Carefully Selected and of the Finest Quality, And Grown In High Mountain Valleys Write For Special Prices On Large Orders of Seeds 6 A Large Assortment of Bird Cages to Select From CARROTS Carrots are one of the most wholesome foods supplying precious vitamines, and when only half grown are very delicious and relished by most persons. The seeds are slow to germinate and they should be marked in rows with some other quick maturing crop. CULTURE — Any garden soil will grow carrots. For early crops sow as early in the spring as possible and in rows eighteen inches to two feet apart. Cover not more than *4 inch deep. When the plants are about three or four inches high thin out to two inches apart for the small eariy varieties and four inches apart for the late ones. Give them plenty of room. Keep them thoroughly hoed. A packet will plant about 20 feet ; an ounce, 150 feet ; and three pounds, an acre. The late crops should be dug in the autumn and stored like Turnips and other root crops. LONG ORANGE — The old stand-by, both for table use and for stock feeding, for late summer and winter. Fed to milch cows, it increases flow of rich milk and im¬ parts to the butter in winter a fresh flavor and golden color. CHANTENAY (The Market Gardener’s Favorite)— Tops medium sized, necks small, roots tapering slightly, but uniformly stump-rooted and smooth color, deep orange-red flesh, very crisp and tender. Although this is a medium early sort is furnishes roots of useable size as early as any ; it is a heavy cropper and is undoubtedly one of the best for both the market and private garden, while its great productiveness makes it very desirable as a field sort. Pkt., 5c ; oz., 10c ; % b., 25c ; lb., 80c. IMPROVED LONG ORANGE — A well-known standard sort, roots long, thickest near the crown, tapering regularly to a point ; color deep orange.

DANVERS HALF LONG — An old, popular variety and in the past the most largely used, not only for stock raising, but for table use as well. The perfect type is about eight inches long and about two and one-half inches wide at the shoulder, tapering to a sort of half -point at the bottom. Color is a bright orange scarlet ; is very heavy cropper. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; % lb., 25c; lb:. 80c, postpaid. One oz. will sow 150 feet. Three lbs. for one acre. Per pkt. 5c ; oz. 10c ; % lb., 25c ; 1 lb., 80c, postpaid. STOCK CARROTS Sow in drills far enough apart for horse cultivator and thin out in row from 5 to 6 inches. Requires about three pounds of seed per acre. LARGE WHITE BELGIAN — Grows one-third out of the ground. Root pure white, green above ground with small top. It will grow to a very large size, on light, rich soil, and is very easily gathered. Fiesh rather course, is raised exclusively for stock. WHITE MASTODIAN — A new carrot from Russia. Gigantic size and wonderful keeping qualities. Yields 40 to 50 tons to the acre and is very hardy. Is a splendid feed for stock and one of the most profitable to plant. YELLOW BELGIUM — This type is a favorite with many farmers, on account of its quality and productiveness, being a little more stump rooted than some varities ; its tonnage per acre is quite heavy. When grown it is from 7 to 8 inches in length and! of a yellow color. Price, pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; 1-4 lb., 25c; 1 lb., 60c; 5 lb., $2.50; 10 lbs., $4.75, Postpaid.

To be used as a salad before the flowers appear. CABBAGE FOR ALL SEASONS As with all other seeds our selection of cabbage stocks are positively from the best sources of supply, and the best strains obtainable, as proved by our own tests: CULTURE — Cabbage does best in rich, moist, well prepared soil ; extra care should be taken in working it deeply as most varieties of cabbage do not thrive in shallow soils. For the early varieties in the mountain states and similar climatic conditions sow in hotbeds in the late winter or very early spring and trasplant to the open ground as soon as ground can CARPENTER SEED COMPANY 7 CABBAGE (Continued) be worked. Don’t neglect to "harden the plants off” before transplant¬ ing and see to it that they are not so thick in the beds as to make them spindly. In transplantinug to the open ground set in rows 18 to 24 inches apart and 12 to 18 inches between plants in the row. For field cultivation three feet between rows would be better. The fall and winter varieties can be handled in the same way or if the seedbed is in good condition an easier and equally successful method is to sow the seed in hills or with a regular garden drill in the open ground us¬ ing about one pound of seed per acre ; when plants are well out of the ground thin out to proper distances in the row. One ounce 1500 plants ; half pound to trans¬ plant an acre. ABOUT PESTS. If bothered with cabbage worms use arsenate of lead and for cabbage louse or aphis. Black Leaf 40 is effective. DANISH BALD HEAD— SHORT STEM COPENHAGEN MARKET— This is the finest large round-head¬ ed medium early cabbage ; the heads maturing all at the same time. They average about 10 pounds each ; are very solid with small core and fine quality. Sowed in March they are ready for market the latter part of August, in our ta*ial ground, and are about as early as Charleston Wakefield, but will give a much heavier yield per acre. It is short stemmed with small saucer-shaped light green leaves always tightly folded, and can, therefore, be planted close. Pkt., 5c ; oz., 20c ; % lb., 50c ; lb., §1.75. bages.

Our stock is the very best type of this, the best of all late cab- LATE LARGE DRUMHEAD — This is also a very large fall and winter variety. It is similar in most respects to the Pre¬ mium Flat Dutch, but the heads are more rounded on top, it is also generally longer in' size. DRUMHEAD SAVOY— The finest flavored of all the cab¬ bage family ; large and solid ; used extensively in the markets of Europe, but not so well known in this country. Vitamines in Cabbage Increases Consumption — Recent in¬ vestigators have shown cabbage to be rich in vitamines and as a result of a national campaign to promote the eating of cab¬ bage, cabbage sales are increasing by leaps and bounds.

ALL PRICES ON CABBAGE POST PAID. & Encourage the Boys and Girls to Plant a Garden CAULIFLOWER CULTURE. This is the same as for cabbage, except that extra manure and plenty olf water will pay upon this. If the soil be dry. water frequently, and' if the plants could have a heavy mulch of hay or straw, it would keep the soil moist and the plants would not suffer from drouth. The early kinds should be strong enough to plant out not later than the middle of April, the late kinds may be planted out same time as for cabbage. To destroy the Cauliflower maggot, it is recommended to take one Cauliflower — Early Snowball ounce of sulphate of potassium and dissolve it in one gallon of water. Heat the liquid to about 100 degrees, take a large spoon, or something that will hold the 100th part of a gallon, and pour the liquid against the stalk of the plant just above the ground. One ounce will produce 1,500 to 2,000 plants. DANISH SNOWBALL — Exceedingly early and hardy and a very sure header.

Cantaloupe or Muskmelon Cantaloupes or muskmelons are a long season crop requiring for their best development a sandy soil which quickly warms up, a season of 90 to 100 days growing weather, hot sun and ample irrigation. Though these conditions are best found in irrigated sections of the West, there is practically no region In the United States in which some variety cannot be successfully grown. CULTURE — Muskmelons delight in moderately rich, warm, mellow loam. The seed should be planted in the spring upon the arrival of settled warm weather. Plant seeds 1 inch deep in hills, 4 to € feet apart each way, and as soon as the plants begin to run, remove all but four of the most likely ones. Spray often with Arsenate of Lead.

When farily out of the seed leaf they may be transplanted to an¬ other bed, or they may be thinned out in beds or tranches. The bed should be kept well weeded, and and occasional soaking with water in dry weather will do the plants good. Early in June is the proper time to set the plants out in beds or trenches. Press the soil firmly against the roots. In the garden the better way is to set the plants in shallow trenches — we say shallow, for it is obviously a bad plan to remove all the good soil (as must be done in a deep trench and put the plants in that which is poor.) The plants may be set in a single row in a narrow trench or the trench may be made into a bed wide enough to hold two three or four rows, and in that case the plants are in a compact form, to be covered for the winter where they grow. One ounce will make about 2,500 plants. Postpaid. IMPROVED CHINESE OR UTAH CELERY— so much in demand. This strain was originally developed by the Chinese gardeners.. Its superior qualities gave them exclusive control of the celery market while their supply lasted. We have finally succeeded in getting a reliable source of supply for the seed of this much sought after var¬ iety. It is much stouter, thicker and heavier, with double the amount of heart of any known celery. The plant is beautiful in appearance, of close habit and compact growth, and blanches to a beautiful creamy white. Ribs perfectly solid, crisp and of a de¬ licious nutty flavor. Once sown, always grown. Pkt., 15c ; oz,, 50c; % lb., $2.00; lb., $7.00. CHINESE CELERY — One of the choicest sorts known ; crisp, tender and delicious.

Commercial Fertilizers Commercial Fertilizers are being used more and more throughout the Inter Mountain Sec¬ tions of recent years where the soils have been continously cropped until they are becoming de¬ pleted of certain vital plant food elements, most important of which are Nitrogen, Acid Phosphate and Potash, and must be replaced in addition to barnyard manures and cover crops, which furnish these elements in limited quantities, and frequent¬ ly in much improperly balanced proportions to meet all requirements of certain plants. Briefly the main function and noticable ef¬ fect of Nitrogen in plant life is to promote quick start, fast growth, and development of heavy vine and leaf of a dark green color. Acid Phosphate, promotes good root growth to sustain a proper proportion to vine, and is es¬ sential in developing heavy budding, sturdy bloom and blossom which better withstands attacks of insects and insures firm setting of fruit and seed. Potash developes the fibre in frame structure of plant to better enable it to withstand the hard¬ ships of weather conditions, also insures firmness of fruit or grain. We carry in stock a few standard formulas for local crops and as agents for the Inland Fer¬ tilizer Co., can supply you with any of the separate elements or formulas containing any percentage of the three elements desired for any crop. Prices range from $4-00 to $6.00 per 100 lbs. according to the formula.

It is, without doubt, the sweetest and most tender of all sweet corn, and at the same time with ears of good size. STOWELL’S EVERGREEN — This variety is more largely planted than any other, being the general favorite with can- ners and market gardners for late use. It isl very productive, the ears are of large size, grains deep, exceptionally tender and sugary, and remains for a long time in an edible condition.

Cucumbers for Pickles and Salads CULTURE — Cucumbers are planted in hills which, for best results, should be made as follows: Dig holes about a foot in diameter. Fill these with thoroughly rotted manure or compost, tramp down tightly and soak with water. On top of this build a mound about four inches high of fine soil. These hills can be made any time but the seeds should not be planted until the weather and soil have become quite warm. LONG WHITE SPINE Plant about a dozen seeds in the top of each hill. Cover them about a half inch and press the soil down firmly. When the plants put forth the third pair of leaves thin out to the four strongest plants to the hill. The hills should be about three feet apart. Keep the soil loose and free of weeds, but after the plants have started to cover the ground do not move them. One ounce will plant 50 hills, two pounds will plant an acre. LONG WHITE SPINE — After years of experimenting we have found this to be a reliable, all-purpose variety for market garden as well as the home garden. It cannot fail to be profitable, whether grown for early slicing or late pickling. The fruit when suitable to ship, is six or seven inches in length, green to the tip and ends, solid, crisp, and of excellent flavor. EARLY CLUSTER — A very popular early cucumber producing its fruit in clusters near the root of the plant.

LETTUCE CABBAGE OR HEADING VARIETIES. One ounce will produce about 3,000 plants. Postpaid. New York Head Lettuce There is so great difference in localities in regard to culture of lettuce that it is hard to get a uniform rule. For the ordinary house garden, it is desirable to use one variety of each type, and several plantings should be made to secure succession. The seed should be planted in rows eighten inches apart, as early as possible, and the young plants of cabbage head variety should be thinned until four inches apart. Varieties that do not head may be left quite thick, and when fairly well grown, those thinned out may be used. Nitrate of soda, or some nitrogenous fertilizer will pay if used after plants are set. A light, warm rich, well watered soil is ideal as quick, rapid growth is essential to crispness and flavor. One ounce produces three thousand plants; for Head Lettuce sow iy2 to 2 pounds per acre; Loose Leaf varieties 3 to 4 pounds per acre. CULTURE — Sow in the house or in frames any time after March 10th; if put outdoors, as early in the spring as ground can be worked and at intervals of two weeks till June 1st. Soil should be a rich, sandy loam with plenty of humus. Sow early in the spring in rich, well prepared soil in rows eighteen inches apart, covering one-half inch deep. When plants have two or three leaves, thin to three or four inches apart. As the plants begin to crowd thin and use as required.

Fresh stable manure and barnyard litters are entirely out of place on the Onion field. They are usually loaded with weed seeds and will interfere very much with tillage. Compost heaps will destroy the weed seeds and put manure in such condition that they will readily mix with the soil. Man¬ ure from sheep sheds or pig pens applied with a spreader before the ground is plowed in the Fall makes excellent fertilizer for onions because it is usually comparatively free from litter and foul seeds.

PEAS=- Early & In planting garden peas in the home garden, first prepare the soil the same as for other crops then, scatter a little fertilizer .where the row is to be planted, and rake this into the soil. Next stretch a line and make a deep mark with the corner of the hoe. The bottom of this mark should be at least two inches across so that the seed can be spread somewhat, and not crowded too closely to¬ gether. Scatter the seed in this furrow, ten seeds to the foot, then cover about one inch deep and slightly firm the soil over the seed with the back of the hoe. About one week will generally elapse before the sprout appears above the ground. PEPPERS — RUBY KING CARPENTER SEED COMPANY Peas (Continued) American Wonder Postage Extra. MEDIUM AND LATE VARIETIES ALASKA — A variety of remarkable earliness and hardiness. It is a good yielder and produces pods of good size and dark, round ~mooth peas of splendid flavor, green in color, pods are well filled ; height one foot ; the color of the dried pea is green ; it ripens very evenly bo that one picking will nearly clean off the crop. AMERICAN WONDER — This pea is a hybrid of fixed habit, be¬ tween the Champion of England and the Little Gem ; it possesses the merits of both, with some additional claims to notice. The vine grows eight to ten inches high, and is very prolific in pods of striking form and size. In maturity it is among the first earliest, ripening in about fifty days from germination. It is among the first early of the green wrinkled sorts. Its habit is so dwarf that it can be very successfully grown under glass. NOTT’S EXCELSIOR — Robust and vigorous in growth, inclined to throw laterals from the base of the stock, producing in profusion long, handsome pods closely packed with large peas of fine flavor. An improvement of American Wonder, being more vigorous and prolific with larger pods, more peas than either the Wonder or Premium Gem. A decided acquisition and sure to be very popular when generally known ; height, 12 inches. LITTLE GEM — A very desirable early dwarf, green wrinkled variety ; very popular and more prolific than the Little Gem. EVERBEARING — The vines attain a height of from eighteen to two feet ; foliage large ; the pods will average four inches in length, each pod producing six to eight wrinkled peas. The peas are very large, being half an inch and over in diameter, and in quality un¬ surpassed. For a continuance in bearing this variety is unexcelled. STRATEGEM — Seeds green ; -wrinkled ; middle crop ; one of the best peas ever sent out ; grows a vigorous and showy vine, of branch¬ ing habit ; heavily laden with immense pods containing ten to twelve peas of large size ; a marvelous cropper and imcomparable eating pea ; height, one and one-half feet.

A rich clover bed, manured and broken the year before and planted to corn, beans, peas, oats, etc., is in the best shape for giving a good yield of nice clean potatoes. Stable manure had better be applied to the land the year before. Plant good sized pieces, each containing no less than two or three eyes, fifteen inches apart in the furrows, for early potatoes, and eighteen inches apart for late ones. Requires 700 to 800 pounds seed per acre. Early Ohio IRISH COBBLER — Irish Cobbler has been for some years the most famous early potato in the East. In the potato sec¬ tions of Maine it has been more largely grown than all other earlies and has been shipped from there in large quantities to supply truckers of New Jersey and Virginia and other Atlantic coast states. From these its popularity has extended through¬ out the whole of the United States. IMPROVED EARLY OHIO— Early Ohio is without doubt the most popular early potato in the country. We have more calls for it always than for any other early. Everyone knows what it is, and knows that it can be relied on for an early market variety in almost every locality. A large percentage of the so-called Ohios throughout the country, however, are badly mixed and are run out. The worst of it is many farmers do not seem to know that their seed is mixed. It is even very common to find potatoes entered for exhibition at the fairs in the fall as Early Ohios that are all mixed up with Early Rose or some other variety with smooth skin and pointed ends. A typical Early Ohio should have blunt rounded ends, with the cluster of eyes at the seed end right out flush with the surface. Write for Prices. Essential Factors in Successful Potato Growing Treat seed stock before cutting. The very best seed may have traces of one or more of the many diseases to which potatoes are subject. It is, therefore, advisable to soak seed potatoes in a solution which will kill whatever disease may be lurking on the outside of the tubers. Make this solution by dissolving ;four ounces of corrosive sublimate in about two quarts of hot water (be sure it is thoroughly dissolved) in a glass jar and then add to thirty gallons of cold water in wood¬ en vessels. A barrel or wooden tank makes a good receptacle for this purpose. Place the sacks of potatoes in this solution and leave one and one-half hours, then drain, and if the potatoes are not to be cut immediately spread out to dry. Use the same solution for only four or five lots, as the strength be¬ comes weaker the more it is used. This solution is poisonous and should be handled with care and kept were animals may not drink it. Treated potatoes should also be kept away from stock. Plant four to five inches deep, 14 inches apart, in rows 30 inches apart. If potatoes follow alfalfa or Melilotus good yields can us¬ ually be obtained without the use of commercial fertilizer ; but commercial fertilizer will be found profitable. 50 lbs. of nitrate of soda per acre is about right. Keep soil moist at all times. Do not judge moisture by appearance of the potato plants as when the plants become a very dark green or begin to turn yellow it is then too late to apply water for best results ; and potatoes are likely to become rough and knobby.

White Icid« CARPENTER’S RADISHES For the best results the soil should be dight, well pulverized, rich and mellow to insure quick growing, supplying plenty of water. Radishes per¬ mitted to grow slowly become tough and pithy, light frosts will not kill young plants, but will check the growth and they do best when kept growing right along. For a succession sow in every ten days. During the hot months of summer, winter radishes will do better than the early sorts. Winter radishes can be stored, same as potatoes, furnishing an acceptable relish through the winter months. There is no crop that will bring quicker returns for the market gardener. The leading variety is “Sparkler;” or if you wish an all scarlet, use “Elarliest.” Our recommendations are Sparkler for early or succession; Icicle for second early; and Celestial for winter use. CULTURE — Do best in sandy loam of good fertility. The seed should be sown just as early in the spring as possible in rows 12 to 18 inches apart. Rad¬ ishes must be given sufficient room to enable them to develop to full size with¬ out any check. It is, therefore, of great importance that they be thinned as often as necessary. The small round varieties should be from 1 to 1 1-2 inches apart and the long ones 2 to 3 inches apart. EARLY LONG SCARLET TOP — Grows six to seven inches long, half out of the ground ; is very brittle and crisp, and of quick growth ; color, bright scarlet ; small top ; tapers regularly to the root and is uniformly straight and smooth.

EARLY SCARLET TURNIP — A small, round, turnip-shaped, with small top, and of very quick growth. FRENCH BREAKFAST — A medium-sized radish, olive-shaped, small top, of quick growth, very crisp and tender, of a beautiful scar¬ let color. Pkt., 5c: oz., 10c: % lb., 25c; 1 lb., 80c; postpaid. Early Scarlet Turnip 20 Grow Vegetables and Flowers Instead of Weeds Radishes (Continued) Radish Early White Tip NEW “ICICLE” — Entirely distinct, long, slender, pure white ; very early ; much the earliest and finest long white.

Roots pure snowy white, four inches in length and half an inch in diameter ; they retain their crispness and fresh, mild flavor until fully six inches long and an inch in dia¬ meter. WINTER CHINA ROSE — Roots cylindrical, or largest at the bot¬ tom, tapering abruptly to a small top ; skin very smooth, and of a bright rose color ; flesh as solid as an apple ; very good keeper. WINTER BLACK ROUND SPANISH— One of the latest, as well as the hardiest of radishes, and is considered an excellent sort for win¬ ter use ; roots turnip-shaped ; very large size and firm texture. SPARKLER RADISH — A favorite for the Market Gardener. Colo* Scarlet and White. Extremely quick to mature, being ready for the table in twenty days from planting. Skin very smooth.

SQUASH Pkt., oc; oz., 10c; M lb., Culture — Plant when danger of frost is past and the ground has become warm. For bush varie¬ ties the hills may be five feet apart but allow six to eight feet for trailing varieties. Plant six or eight seeds to the hill and thin to three plants when they begin to vine. WHITE BUSH SCAULOP — Earlier than any other summer variety. The skin is white and ten¬ der when ready for use, dwarf in habit and very productive. 35c; lb., 90c. Postpaid. MAMMOTH SUMMER CROOKNECK — It is . the best summer squash, and for these reasons : It is twice as large as the ordinary Summer Crookneck, far more warty and several days earlier. The com¬ bination of earliness, large size and wart¬ iness, which adds so much to its attractive¬ ness, makes it altogether the most desirable squash for the market or private garden. HUBBARD — The best table squash yet known, good specimens being about equal to the sweet potato. It has a hard shell, and with some care will keep three months later than the Marrows ; flesh fine grained, dry and of excellent flavor. CHICAGO WARTED HUBBARD— Im¬ proved and selected strain of the Hubbard Squash. Very popular in the vicinity of Chicago.

Pkt., 5c % lb., 20c ; 1 lb., 60c. TURNIPS CULTURE — Turnips do best in highly enriced light sandy ssoil ; commence sowing the earliest varieties in April in drills from 12 to 15 inches apart, and thin out early to six or nine inches in rows. For a succession sow at interavis of a fortnight until the last week in July, from which time until the end of August sowing may be made for the fall and main crop. One ounce will sow 150 feet of drill ; one and one-half pound to the acre. Early White Egg There is usually plenty of room in the garden during the fall months. Utilize this space by sowing Turnips. They are very easily stored and a nice supply of Turnips in the cellar or in the pit will help out mightily on the winter food bill. Turnips also make excellent stock feed for fall and winter use. They are much liked by all stock and the feeding of turnips or rutabagas keeps them in good condition. We earnestly recommend far¬ mers to sow turnips and rutabegas for this purpose. We knqw it is profitable. GOLDEN BALL — Undoubtedly among the most delicate and sweetest yellow-fleshed turnips jet introduced. Not of large size, but firm, hard and one of most excellent flavor.

Tomatoes are an ideal home garden crop, thriving in a clay soil none too fertile and yielding heav¬ ily in small space. They should be started indoors and those unable to do this should purchase plants. The plants may be set in the garden when danger of frost is over. It is important to give them a quick start after transplanting by frequent watering and fertilizing. They should be spray¬ ed with bordeaux mixture to prevent disease, and with arsenate of lead to keep off the tomato worm; and Pyrox furnishes a combination spray which will accomplish both purposes. Hot sun is needed to ripen tomatoes and plenty of water to keep them growing. If trained to stakes or trellises they will ripen sooner, though satisfactory crops are produced by allowing the vines to lie on the ground. CULTURE — It is easy to grow tomatoes but as they require a long season it is best to start the plants in a green-house, hot bed or in the house. A cigar box kept in a sunny kitchen window will do. Sow the seeds one-eight to a quarter of an inch deep and keep the soil moist As soon as the seedlings make a second pair of leaves transplant to another box or flat, keeping the plants four inches apart. When all danger of frost is over set the plants out in the garden.

GROW A GARDEN INSTEAD OF WEEDS CARPENTER SEED COMPANY 23 WATERMELON CULTURE — The soil for Watermellons must be light, rich and sandy, for if grown on a heavy soil the quality will be poor and they will not be so early. When there is no more danger of frost, drop 8 to 10 seeds in a hill 8 to 10 feet apart each way, cover three-fourths inches deep. As soon as plants commence to run, thin out to 3 best plantsi in a hill and cultivate until the vines cover the whole ground. If slow to fruit pinch off the ends of the growing shoots. Ashes or air-slacked lime sifted on the young plants while dew is on is good to keep insects out. One ounce will plant about 130 hills, and it takes 4 to 5 pounds to one acre.

You can enjoy these beauties of nature if you use good seed, plants, bulbs, and the right plantfood. The right plantfood is important because plants must be fed the same as human beings. VIGORO provides an economical, practical, and effective way to secure finest results. Economical because the cost is only 10c to 20c for every 100 square feet. Practical because it is clean, odorless, easy to apply — can be sown by hand like grass seed or applied with an ordinary kitchen colander. Effective because it contains all of the elements of plantfood required to produce early, vigorous growth, and bring fruit, flowers, and foliage to full development. Complete directions for applying VIGORO for all plants are contained in every bag. VIGORO should be used at the rate of four pounds per 100 square feet (10 ft. x 10 ft.) in the spring and fall. Use one-half this amount for summer feeding. Using this as a basis, the amount of VIGORO needed for large areas such as parks, large estates and cemeteries can be easily calculated. Many years of extensive research work and actual growing tests have been devoted by Swift & Company’s horticultural experts to the development of a product containing the right kind and amount of plant food necessary to produce the best flowers. As a result of that work, VIGORO, the scientifically prepared plant food has been developed.

It has ceased to be a necessity to keep such large stocks of bedding and other tender plants under glass through, the winter, there¬ by saving the expense of glass, fuel, labor, etc. The general rules for sowing Flower Seecte, as well as an y other seeds, is to sow them at the proper depth ; and the depthat which they are sown in every instance be governed by the s ize of the seed itself. As the sprouts of small seeds are natural-ly small, if sown as deep as large seeds, they will be either un¬ usually long in starting or more likely to perish in the ground. Another object td be consiered is the soil into which the fl ower seeds are to be sown. The 6oil best adapted for floweringplants generally is a light, friable loam, containing a suuffic ient amount of sand to render it porous. A great many varitieswill live in) almost any kind of soil, except it be extremely dry , calcareous, or of a stiff heavy character ; still to give them afair chance for development, some little pains should be taken i n adding to the soil as much as possible, what may be wanting in it. Deep digging and enriching with thorouughly decayed ma nure is the least that should be done. If the weather, aftersowing, should be dry, it wil be necessary to water the places w here the seeds are sown with a fine rose watering pot, regularly,but slightly, every evening, as it is essential that the seeds durin g their process of germination should be kept constantly moist. From a neglect or oversight of this arise most of the failures. A s the process of germination is often slow, the patience is sore-ly tried. We san assure our customers that there is no bette r flower seeds and bulbes offered by any seed house in America.

This amazing material lets in the sun's ultra-violet rays. Ordinary glass shuts them out. Science says hens will not lay without these rays. GLASS CLOTH scatters the light over the whole hen house. The hens pep up, scratch and exercise. Egg paralysis disappears. The egg glands start working. The hens lay like it was spring. It is common for 400 hens to lay $1000 worth of eggs during the winter. Profit like that is not to be overlooked. It costs only $5.00 for enough GLASS CLOTH for windows for a big poultry house. The profits are amazing.
