England soils, and we use only the finest recleaned grass seed in the making of it. It does not contain Timothy. Weight 32 pounds to the bushel. Sow 1 pound to 200 square feet; 200 pounds to the acre.

Lb. 45 cts., 5 lbs. $2, 10 lbs. $3.75, 50 lbs. $17.50, 100 lbs. $32.50

have selected only the types of grasses suitable for growing under these con¬ ditions.

BENT LAWNS

For the past few years there has been a great demand for lawns of the same texture and fineness of the putting green. These can be established with special

care and attention and the use of the proper seed and fertilizer. Our Bent Grasses are the finest obtainable. See them offered on page 46.

SPECIAL MIXTURES. We carry at all times most of the different varieties of grasses separate, as we have orders for special mixtures of grasses wanted for peculiar situations, such as very sandy soils, terraces, etc. We will gladly make these mixtures in whatever proportion our customers desire, and will furnish reliable information in regard to them.

- BARRETT’S SEEDS *

We take great pleasure in presenting our 86th Annual Seed and Implement Catalogue.

We have given data on the varieties of seed as accurate as can be compiled.

You will find new varieties that have been tested and proved superior to some of the older strains, and also all the standard varieties that have been so popular in the past.

Our seed is obtained from the most reliable sources of supply, because we are in touch with the best seed-breeders and growers all over the world.

On larger quantities of seed not listed in this Catalogue, we will gladly quote special prices to market-gardeners, farmers, and others who use seeds in larger quantities.

We have been supplying most of the market-gardeners and farmers in this locality for a great many years with seed of the very best newer varieties for market consumption.

We will gladly give the germination figures on any of our vegetable seeds, and while we cannot absolutely guarantee them, we obtain our figures from the best seed labora¬ tories in the country.

A New Barrett Service

A great many of our customers have applied to us to assist them in obtaining the services of reliable men for general landscaping work or to work as private gardeners. We have on file at all times the names of men who are experienced in the different lines of work and who can furnish the best of references as to their ability and their characters.

These names we will gladly furnish to any of our customers who feel that they would like to use this service. We cannot assume any responsibility for these men, but you can rest assured that we will not give them any consideration unless we think they are worthy and reliable.

Making and Maintaining

the Lawn

While good Lawn Seed is absolutely necessary in making and maintaining an attractive lawn, there are other requisites that are almost as important, such as Fertilizers, and we highly recommend the following for that purpose— Wizard Brand Sheep Manure, Vigoro, Fine- ground Bone, and Land Lime. We can furnish any of these in quantities to suit all needs.

Maintaining a beautiful lawn calls for considerable labor, and this can be very much light¬ ened by the use of the proper tools, such as Lawn Rollers to keep the ground in good condition; Lawn Mowers, both Motor and Hand, for trimming; Bamboo, Steel, and Wood Rakes for raking; and Garden Hose for use in case of drought. We also carry a fine line of Spades and Shovels.

To insure a really fine lawn, there are several requisites: a good depth of rich soil, properly drained; a liberal dressing of decayed manure (if unable to obtain the manure, a good compost or a good application of peat-moss and a good chemical fertilizer); and a sufficient amount of moisture to keep the grass from drying out. Smooth the surface with harrow and rake, and use a roller to make it firm and even before sowing the seed. Next sow the seed as evenly as possible, and then rake in lightly and roll the surface smooth again.

Watering is the life of a lawn. A thorough soaking once in a while is best. Water that does not go down deep tends to shallow rooting — a bad thing in hot weather.

Reseeding. In reseeding lawns that have become worn out by neglect or other causes, where it is not desirable to renew by plowing, it may be found very beneficial to run a light harrow over them, if the surface is large, or use a sharp steel rake for smaller spots. After this has been done, Lawn Seed should be sown over the surface, raking in about half the quantity advised for a new lawn, then rolling the surface smooth or tamping it with a tamper.

A much better stand of grass may be obtained by treating the seed with Semesan before

sowing; also spray the soil. See page 51

Asters

The Queen of the Annuals

The Aster is the most popular fall flower grown, and justly so because of its easy culture, season of bloom, and lasting qualities, both in the garden and as a cut-flower. To cut Asters abundantly as long as possible, several sowings should be made of the early, midseason, and late-flowering types. To succeed with Asters, sow the seed in flats in the house or hotbed in March, transplant the seedlings, 2 inches apart, in boxes, when they are large enough to handle, and move to permanent beds in May. Make the second sowing in the coldframe the latter part of April, and the third the latter part of May. Set the plants of early varieties 10 inches apart, and of later varieties 18 inches apart. The richer the ground the better your flowers will be, and water is very necessary.

The half-double flowers, from 4 to 6 inches in diameter, exhibit the grace and beauty of the single Aster, enhanced by a golden yellow cushion center of tiny quills, contrasting with the outer petals.

Best'Grcide Vegetable Seeds

FOR FARM, MARKET, AND KITCHEN GARDENS

Best Adapted to this Climate

We Will Furnish Accurate Germination Tests on All Our Vegetable Seeds

Artichoke

Globe Artichoke. Matures second year. A perennial culti¬ vated for its flower-buds, which are cooked like asparagus. Sow seed in the greenhouse or hotbed in March, and when all danger of frost is over, set plants out about 3 feet apart. Mulch over winter, so that the crowns are not choked. Requires warm weather to grow to perfection. Pkt. 15 cts.; p£oz. 40 cts.; oz. 75 cts.

Asparagus

This is one of the first and finest spring relishes which come to the table from the garden, and it really requires very little trouble in cultivation, since a bed once properly made and planted will last for years. The soil for the bed can hardly be made too rich, and the fertilizer should be well trenched in to the depth of 2 feet or more. The roots should be planted as early in spring as the ground can be prepared, setting them a foot apart in rows 3 or 4 feet apart, with the crowns from 4 to 6 inches below the surface of the bed. Asparagus seed may be sown directly in the permanent bed and the plants thinned as they grow; or it may be sown elsewhere, and the seedlings transplanted the second year. Fair crops may be expected the third year.

One ounce of seed will produce 100 plants; 4 pounds will sow an acre Giant Argenteuil. A popular variety, with large thick stalks; very productive.

Mary Washington. A variety of recent introduction. Very large and free from blight.

Palmetto. One of the earliest; of large and fine growth..

Asparagus Roots

5,000 to 8,000 roots will plant an acre Mary Washington. 2 years old.

BEANS

Dwarf or Bush

Beans are among our most valuable farinaceous foods, and form a market staple everywhere. The seeds should not be planted before the ground becomes light and warm, in favor¬ able seasons usually about the first of May. Bush Limas should not be planted so early as other sorts, as Limas are particu¬ larly sensitive to cold and damp. The soil should be rich and mellow, and the seeds scattered about 3 inches apart in drills from 3 to 3^ feet apart, and covered about 2 inches deep. The plants will need frequent hoeing, but should never be cultivated when the leaves are wet with dew or rain, as this will cause them to rust. Sowings made at intervals of about two weeks until the middle of July will give a supply all season. One pound of seed will sow 100 feet of drill; 60 pounds, an acre

Wax or Yellow-Podded Beans

Brittle Wax. 52 days. Fleshy, round, solid pods, tender, brittle, entirely stringless, with a rich flavor. The seeds are white with a black eye.

Bush Lima Beans

Pole Beans

Bush Lima Beans

Burpee’s Bush Lima. 75 days. Immensely popular. The plants come true from seed, and the dwarf habit has become well fixed. They grow into splendid branching bushes, 18 to 20 inches high and 2 to 3 feet across.

Fordhook Bush Lima. 75 days. This Bush Lima is of uni¬ formly erect bush habit, branching freely, but with all the branches held upright. It bears tremendous crops and sets plump, well-IHIed pods freely, even in a cool, wet season. Henderson’s Bush Lima. 65 days. Two weeks earlier than the Pole Limas, and the bushes bear long and continuously. Beans of the small Sieva type.

Pole or Running Beans

Pole Beans are not so hardy as the Bush sorts, and should be planted several weeks later, when danger from frost is over. Plant the seeds in slightly raised hills, 3 to 4 feet apart, four or five seeds to the hill. The Limas are especially tender, and the rule for late outside planting with them is rigid. Painstaking cultivators, usually the most successful, plant them eye down¬ ward, setting stout poles for every hill.

One pound of seed will sow 100 hills; 30 pounds , an acre

Golden Cluster Wax. 75 days. One of the best Pole Wax Beans. Excellent flavor and very tender.

Vegetable Seeds 23

Broccoli

Broccoli

Requires the same treatment as cauliflower.

One ounce of seed will produce 5,000 plants; 4 ounces will sow an acre

Calabrese. 1 10 days. A sprouting variety. Forms a large head which remains green; when head is cut out, small sprouts develop from the upper side of each leaf branch. Sow in the open ground during the early summer; matures in three months.

Early Special Calabrese. 100 days. An improved strain of the Calabrese type, maturing 7 to 10 days earlier.

Rape. Grown for the delicious greens it produces.

Brussels Sprouts

Species of cabbage, with small, solid, tender heads clustered thickly along the main stem. Properly cooked and seasoned, they are delicious, melting away in the mouth like fine cauli¬ flower. Sow seed in April or May and cultivate like cabbage. Hardy, and the heads are improved by frost.

One ounce of seed will produce 3,000 plants; 4 ounces will sow an acre Dwarf Improved. 125 days. Plants dwarf, with small, solid, tender heads growing very close together along the stem.

Carrots

Carrots succeed best on light, sandy loam, which, preferably, should have been well fertilized the previous year, as fresh manure often causes the roots to grow pronged and mis¬ shapen. Sow the seed as early in spring as the ground can be prepared, firming the soil down over it. If sown late, it should be soaked in tepid water, then mixed with plaster or sifted coal-ashes, and sown on freshly prepared soil. Quick germina¬ tion and rapid growth are necessary.

Sow l/4ounce of seed to 100 feet of drill; 2*4 lbs. to an acre Asgrow Imperator. 77 days. New. An outstanding type bred for market-garden use. Top medium but strong enough for bunching. Flesh rich orange color, with indistinct core, fine-grained, tender, and of fine quality.

Chantenay. 70 days. Handsome roots, broad-shouldered and smooth, and more uniform than the Danvers. Of superior flavor.

Danvers Half-Long. 75 days. Enormously productive; adapted to all soils. The roots are smooth, thick and inter¬ mediate between Scarlet Horn and Long Orange in form. Early Scarlet Horn. 60 days. Best for forcing and early outdoor crops; can be grown in shallow soils, and requires no thinning if sparingly sown, as the roots are used when young for cooking. About 3 inches long, and of good quality. Feonia. A novelty from Denmark. A cross between the well-known Nantes and Chantenay varieties.

Hutchinson. 72 days. A heavy yielder and attractive. Improved Long Orange. 80 days. Hardly equal to Danvers in quality, but good and heavy in yield.

Large White Belgian. 100 days. For stock-feeding and especially suited to shallow soils. Roots white-fleshed, broad at the shoulder and narrowed abruptly to a point.

Nantes Improved Coreless. 90 days. Excellent for home- garden use. Flesh reddish orange, crisp, tender, and of very delicate flavor, practically coreless.

Select Cabbage

Early varieties are grown from seed sown in hotbeds in February or March, only moderate bottom heat being re¬ quired. Transplant into other frames, without much, if any, bottom heat, as soon as the plants show the fourth leaf. In April, or as soon as the ground can be easily worked, set out in rows 3 feet apart, and about 1 Yi feet between the plants. The ground should be thoroughly stirred with cultivator and hoed every week till the plants cover the ground. For a fall crop, sow in the open ground in May, in hills the proper dis¬ tance apart, using a liberal quantity of manure in the hill, besides that which is plowed in; thin out to one good plant in each hill. In the same way, crops may be grown to lay in for winter use, planting seed as late as July 1. Seeds can also be sown in shallow drills, and, when the plants are large enough, can be transplanted, setting the plants in rows 3 feet apart and 2 feet apart in the row. Succeeds best in deep, rich loam.

One ounce of seed will produce 3,000 plants; 4 ounces will sow an acre

All Seasons orVandergaw. 105 days. Noted for its superior quality and delicacy of flavor. Almost as early as Hender¬ son’s Early Summer, while the heads are larger and quite thick through; a good variety and a splendid winter keeper. Copenhagen Market. 95 days. The heads are very solid with a small core and of fine quality; average weight, about ten pounds. It matures as early as the Charleston Wakefield, and will give a much heavier yield than that popular variety; the plant is short-stemmed. Leaves are light green and very tightly folded.

Danish Ballhead. 120 days. Heads are thick, round, of medium size, and as hard as a rock. The stump averages longer than with our native sorts. For late marketing, plant about ten days earlier than the common Drumhead on land liberally manured.

Extra-Early Jersey Wakefield. 85 days. The best early variety of Cabbage. Heads of medium size, pyramidal, pointed, firm and solid, with few outside leaves; they are very uniform in shape, size, and time of maturing, and are of good quality.

Golden Acre. 90 days. This is a new, early, round-headed Cabbage which closely resembles Copenhagen Market. As its name implies, it is a money maker. Eight to ten days earlier, smaller, and can be planted closer.

Improved American Drumhead Savoy. 110 days. Heads large, solid, with finely curled, close, wrinkled leaves, of cau¬ liflower flavor. A good-keeping winter Cabbage.

Large Jersey Wakefield or Charleston. 97 days. A selec¬ tion from Early Wakefield, and ten days later, with heads rounded and twice as large.

Penn State Ballhead. 130 days. A large, somewhat flattened form of the Ballhead, producing probably the largest ton¬ nage per acre of any variety of Cabbage. Developed by Pennsylvania State College.

Red Dutch. 100 days. Widely grown for pickling. A good red Cabbage.

Select Large Late Flat Dutch. 120 days. An excellent keep¬ ing variety; the old standby for main crops. Very large; of fine quality.

Ulm Savoy. 95 days. Much earlier than other varieties of this species; medium-sized head; well-curled leaves. Warren’s Stonemason. A greatly improved type of Stone¬ mason, being earlier, rounder, and more solid.

Pe-Tsai, Chinese Cabbage

Early Snowbg.ll Cauliflower

Chinese Cabbage

Pe-Tsai. 70 days. This delicious Chinese vegetable belongs to the Cabbage family and closely resembles a well-grown Cos lettuce, but is heavier. We advise that the seed be sown about August 1 (not earlier). Either start in frames and transplant, or simply sow where the plants are to remain in rows, 2)/2 feet apart, thinning to 1 foot apart in the row. The light green, crumpled-leaved heads are very tender and of a delicious flavor.

Cauliflower

Sow the seeds for early and late Cauliflower crops as directed for cabbage, but do not set the early plants in the field too soon, for if too much stunted by severe frosts, they begin to form heads before they are strong enough to develop them well. Plants which have not headed before winter sets in may be stored in a cool cellar or coldframe, and will form heads there without any further attention. A deep, loamy soil, with a substratum of moisture during dry weather is most suitable for the Cauliflower. Market-gardeners find this one of their most profitable crops, and amateurs who undertake its culture find it easy; but it is a crop in which carelessness or neglect will interfere with the best results.

One ounce of seed will produce 3,000 plants; 4 ounces will sow an acre

Danish Giant or Dry-Weather. 105 days. Finest Danish- grown seed. Very reliable header. A feature of it, the leaves curling over the head, does away with tying to blanch, and gives it the name of Self-protecting Cauliflower. Excellent for market or family use.

Early Snowball. 95 days. This early and popular variety is largely grown everywhere, both for forcing and early crops outside. The plants are dwarf and sure heading; of fine, delicate flavor.

No. 291 Snowball. 95 days. This new strain of Snowball is the earliest on the market. Excellent for the market- gardener.

Super-Snowball. 100 days. An improved strain of Snowball with large, uniform heads.

Cardoon

Thistle-like vegetable valued for its thick leaf-stalks and midribs which must be blanched by hilling them with earth, like celery. Sow in open ground ; rich soil required.

Celeriac

Celeriac or Turnip-Rooted Celery

The seed should be sown in early spring, in light, rich soil; the seedlings transplanted in May, and watered freely in dry weather. They will be ready for cooking in October and may be preserved for use during winter in dry sand.

Prague Giant. 120 days. The roots of this variety are very large and smooth, with no side roots, and sell better in market than those of almost any other sort offered. When young, they are quite tender and marrow-like, having a very fine flavor and cooking quickly.

Celery

Celery can be grown in any soil, but is finest on deep, mellow bottom land. Seed for early crops should be sown in hotbeds about March 15; if sown too early, the plants are apt to run to seed after being transplanted. The plants may either be thinned to give them room to grow, or transplanted to another bed. For the main crop, seed should be sown in the open air as soon as the soil and air are warm enough. They should be covered very lightly, or merely pressed into the earth with a board, if the soil is fine and mellow. The seed-bed must be kept free from weeds and well watered in dry weather.

One ounce of seed will produce 8,000 plants; 2 ounces will sow an acre

Boston Market. The dwarf, branching variety grown so extensively about Boston. It is unequaled by any other sort, being solid, crisp, and of excellent flavor. Its compact, dwarf habit allows closer planting and requires less earthing up than taller sorts. Especially desirable as a market variety but also good for the home-garden.

Easy Blanching. 115 days. This will mature just after the Golden Self-blanching has been harvested. The general color is pale green, with a slight yellowish tinge, which gives it a blanched appearance. The inner stalk, at a very early stage of growth, blanches to a rich golden yellow, so that the usual banking work is eliminated.

Giant Pascal. 140 days. The stalks are remarkably broad and thick, and about 2 feet high, yet blanch quickly with but slight banking. Their rich, nutty flavor is entirely free from any bitter taste, and they are tender, crisp, and string¬ less. A valuable sort for both early and late use.

Paris Golden Self-blanching. 110 days. Has stalks of beautiful golden yellow, equal in quality to those of any variety grown. Plants semi-dwarf and vigorous, with large, ribbed and rounded stalks, which are quite crisp and tender. Distinguished, when quite small, by the distinct yellowish green of its leaves. One of the best and handsomest of Celeries in our collection.

Wonderful or Golden Plume Celery. 115 days. A new early Celery of great merit. Large, robust stalks, easily blanched, blight-proof, and of that crispness and nutty flavor so much desired. We consider this and our strain of Originator’s Golden Self-blanching, the two finest Golden Celeries in cultivation.

Chicory

The seed should be sown as early as possible in spring, in good, mellow soil; make the drills at least half an inch deep. One ounce of seed will produce 4,000 plants; 4 pounds will sow an acre Large-rooted Magdeburg or Coffee. Roots mature in 4 to 5 months. The roots form the Chicory of commerce. The leaves, when blanched, make an excellent salad.

Witloof or French Endive. 80 days. Esteemed as a salad plant. Spring-grown seeds produce parsnip-like roots by November. Cut the leaves off 1 ^ inches from neck, trench 1}^ inches apart, cover with soil 8 inches over crown; then place a 2- to 3-foot layer of fresh manure which induces new growth of blanched leaves folded like cos lettuce, which are eaten raw as salad.

Chives

Salad or vegetable chiefly used for its mild, onion-like flavor. It is a long-lived perennial often planted in herb gardens and sometimes used as an edging around flower-beds.

Stowell’s Evergreen Corn

Golden Sunshine Sweet Corn

Corn, Sweet or Sugar

One-fourth pound of seed will sow 100 hills; 15 pounds, an acre It is our opinion, after several years of testing side by side, that eastern-grown Sweet Corn is far superior to western in sweetness, and also retains this necessary quality for a much longer time. This is also the opinion of many of our local market-gardeners. Our entire stock for this season we guarantee to be New England-grown. This delicious vegetable may be enjoyed from early summer until frost if proper varieties are selected and planted for succession every two weeks from May until the middle of July. If the seed is planted too early, before the ground becomes warm, it is liable to decay. Plant in hills 3 to 4 feet apart each way, five or six kernels to a hill; or in rows 4 to 5 feet apart, scattering the seed thinly in the rows. The taller-growing the variety, the richer should be the soil and the wider the space allowed for development.

Country Gentleman. 90 days. Ears of good size and well filled to the tips with deep, tender, white grains of delicious quality; cobs small; stalks productive, averaging three ears each.

Early Crosby. 74 days. Ears good-sized, 12-rowed, filled with thick, sweet grains; but little later than Perry’s Hybrid. Productive, vigorous, and hardy.

Golden Giant. 88 days. Ears about double the size of Golden Bantam; about ten days later; quality fine, without the mealy taste of most yellow Corns.

Squantum Sweet. Best for table use. Our stock is pure, being grown by us from selected ears.

Cucumber

Corn Salad

All the Best Sorts for Salads and Pickling

For general crop, the seed cannot be planted in the open ground before the weather has become warm and settled and the ground mellow and light. Plant the seed in well-enriched hills, about 4 feet apart each way, and as soon as all danger from insects is over, thin the plants to leave four of the strong¬ est in each hill. For succession, sow at intervals of every two weeks until midsummer. Extra-early crops may be grown by planting the seed in hotbeds in April, upon pieces of sod turned upside down, and removing these to hills in the open ground as soon as the weather is warm enough. For pickles, sow the seed from the middle of June until the middle of July. The vines bear longer if the fruits are gathered as soon as they are large enough; their strength is soon exhausted by ripening fruit.

One ounce of seed will sow 50 hills; 1 to 3 pounds, an acre

Boston Pickling. 50 days. Very popular for pickles; fruit smooth and symmetrical, but slightly pointed at the ends; bright green.

Clark’s Special Long Green. 68 days. Hardy, disease- resistant, medium-late variety of remarkable quality. It is well adapted to general use. When young make excellent pickles.

Early Cluster. 50 days. Produced in clusters, and abun¬ dantly; short, dark green, firm, crisp, and tender.

Everbearing. The vines produce fruit until frost; early and productive. Fruits are small, well shaped, and of good quality for pickling.

Fordhook White Spine. Early, productive, and suitable either for forcing or outdoor crops. Fruit of medium size, good shape, light green, with a few white spines on the surface.

Improved Long Green. 72 days. The leading long-growing sort, and excellent for pickles. The fruits are dark green, long, well-shaped, firm, and crisp.

Japanese Climbing. 55 days. Vigorous, tall-climbing, and clings tightly to trellises. Fruits almost straight, large, and from 12 to 16 inches long; skin dark green; flesh thick and delicately flavored.

Black Beauty Eggplant

Curled Endive

Full Heart Batavian Endive

Cress

The leaves form spicy spring salads, and are also used for garnishing. Sow thickly in shallow drills in early spring, and at intervals for continual supply, as it soon runs to seed.

Extra-Curled or Pepper-Grass. 40 days. Of pleasant, pungent flavor; leaves can be cut several times; grows well in almost any soil.

Water Cress. 50 days. Tender, crisp, and spicy when young. Plant of prostrate habit. A perennial aquatic, which grows well in any stream, forming large beds of leaves.

Dandelion

Furnishes an early and most healthy crop of spring greens. Sow in rich soil, in rows about a foot apart; cover them only J^inch deep and firm the soil down. Thin to 10 inches apart in the rows, that the roots may grow large and solid. The planting-time in this section of the country is about August 1.

Improved American Thick-leaved. 50 days.

Italian ( Ciccoria catalogna ).

Eggplant

Sow the seed in hotbed early in March, transplant to small pots, and plunge them in the same beds; this is to make them strong and stocky. They should not be planted out in rows until May or June, when the weather becomes warm and settled, as cool nights and wet weather will check their growth. Set the plants in rows 3 feet apart each way, and give them a thorough cultivation, drawing the earth up to the stems when they are about a foot high; it is well to keep some plants in the hotbed for replanting. Repeated sowings are sometimes necessary, as the seed does not germinate freely without strong and uniform heat.

One ounce of seed will produce 2,000 plants; 4 ounces an acre Black Beauty. 110 to 125 days. The leading market variety, strong and productive in habit. The fruits are deep purple, large and smooth, entirely free from thorns, and the flesh is white, tender, and delicately flavored. The plant is robust and a good yielder on all rich soils.

Improved Long Purple. 124 days. An early, hardy, and prolific variety with fruits of excellent quality, 6 to 10 inches in length and 2 to 3 inches in diameter. Rich dark purple. New York Large Improved Purple. 130 days. Large, deep purple, egg-shaped fruits of fine quality. Very prolific. A favorite both for the market-garden and for family use.

Endive (The Winter Salad)

This is an important fall and winter salad. For early crop, the seed should be sown in April, in drills 15 inches apart, and the seedlings thinned to stand a foot apart in the rows. Sow¬ ings for the main crop can be made in June and July, as the vegetable is used principally in fall and winter.

Sow jounce of seed to 100 feet of drill; 4\ 2 pounds an acre Full Heart Batavian. 45 days. The broad, thick leaves make excellent salads when blanched. The plant is very hardy, and yields heavier crops than other sorts.

Green Curled. 40 days. The one most generally cultivated. Dark green curled leaves, and, when blanched, very crisp and tender; ready for use earlier than the other sorts.

Kohlrabi

If the weather is favorable, the seed should be sown in April, in rows 1 )/£ feet apart, and the seedlings thinned to stand a foot apart for large varieties, and 6 to 8 inches apart for other sorts; they are somewhat difficult to transplant. The stems swell into large bulbs just above the ground, and these are fit for use when 3 to 4 inches in diameter. For late crops, sow in June or July.

Sow jounce to 100 feet of drill ; 2 pounds per acre Early White Vienna. 60 days. The best and earliest market sort. The plants grow rapidly, have small foliage, and ma¬ ture their fine, round, white bulbs quite early; flesh fine¬ grained, white, tender, and good; tips quite short.

Early Purple Vienna. 60 days. This variety differs from the above mainly in the color of its roots, which are bluish purple; in quality they are superior to those of many other sorts.

White Vienna Kohlrabi

Leek

The Leek is generally considered superior to the onion in flavor, and is much used for seasoning soups and boiling with meats. The plants are easily cultivated and very hardy, enduring the severest winter weather without protection. The seed should be sown in hotbeds in early spring, and the seed¬ lings transplanted later to the open ground, 8 inches apart, in rows from 12 to 15 inches apart. For a winter supply of this, sow seed in the open ground in early spring and thin the seedlings until they have room for development, or transplant them as above; the former method gives larger stalks some time earlier than when the roots are transplanted. They should be stored like celery for winter.

Sow \iounce to 100 feet of drill; 4 pounds per acre Giant Carentan. 90 days. The variety most extensively cultivated. The stalks are large and the leaves grow from their sides, as in the flag.

Giant Carentan Leek

Lettuce

Lettuce is a plant of most simple culture when grown in the open air. It requires rich soil, plenty of well-rotted manure, and abundant moisture. With these conditions, its growth is vigorous and rapid; and to be crisp and tender it should be grown quickly. Of all the salad plants. Lettuce easily takes the lead, and no garden is worthy the name without its Lettuce- beds. It has few, if any, insect enemies and flourishes through¬ out the spring and summer months. Drought and hot weather are its worst enemies, as during such periods it inclines to run up to seed. Seed may be sown in a frame in February or March, not much bottom heat being re¬ quired. The plants may be set out as early as the ground can be worked, as light frosts will not injure’ them. Set in rows about 1 Yi feet apart, leaving 8 to 10 inches of space between the plants. For successive crops, sow every two weeks up to July.

Sow jounce to 100 feet of drill; 3 pounds per acre Big Boston. 50 days. Similar to the Boston Market, with heads twice as large and a week later in maturing. The solid, large heads make them of great value for general crop.

Black-seeded Tennisball. 55 days. This variety is the most popular for outdoor culture. It forms a handsome, compact head, with very few outside leaves, and is crisp> and tender.

Boston Market (White-seeded Tennisball). Grown exten¬ sively under glass by market-gardeners for winter use;, very compact head.

Pure-Spore Culture Mushroom Spawn

The growing of Mushrooms is rapidly increasing, and the demand for them has reached immense proportions. A fine crop of Mushrooms can be secured with very little labor or expense, provided a suitable location can be obtained. Cellars, greenhouses, and sheds can be used for their culture. We are now offering our customers Spawn that is made in quart milk jars under absolutely sterile conditions. The bottle and materials are sterilized under steam pressure of twelve pounds, so that every mould, weed seed or insect is destroyed, and each bottle contains nothing but the pure Spawn. Every particle is full run, covered with Spawn grown direct from the spores. One carton of the Spawn equals five bricks of ordinary Spawn and is sufficient to spawn about 40 square feet. The sterile Spawn is dried thoroughly and each piece wrapped in tissue paper, which contains full instructions, not only as to how the Spawn should be used, but full particulars about growing Mushrooms. Anyone can order Spawn and with it get the necessary knowledge to make growing successful.

Miller’s Cream Muskmelon

Your attention is invited to the Farm Seed Department, pages 44 to 48. The grains and grasses there listed are adapted to New England, and should yield abundantly, even when grown under the most severe conditions.

Bender’s Surprise Muskmelon

<

Cole’s Early Watermelon

Muskmelons

Muskmelon seed should not be planted outdoors until aH danger of frost is over and the ground has become warm and dry. The hills should be about 6 feet apart and carefully pre¬ pared. Rich earth is far better for the young plants than ma¬ nure, but if the latter must be used, see that it is well rotted. Plant from six to twelve seeds in a hill, and when the young seedlings are strong enough to resist the attacks of insects, thin them, leaving three of the strongest in each hill. The vines should have clean cultivation until they cover the ground, and if they grow too rank, the tips of the shoots should be pinched off, causing them to set more and larger fruits.

One ounce of seed will sow 100 hills; 1 to 3 pounds, an acre

Bender’s Surprise. 90 days. Large, oval-shaped, coarsely netted fruit. Flesh of a deep orange color and very thick. A good keeper and shipper.

Emerald Gem. 70 days. Early, with small, smooth-ribbed, dark green fruits; flesh thick and salmon-colored, granular, sweet and rich; very delicious and satisfying to the taste; the vines bear heavily.

Honey Dew. 85 days. The Honey Dew averages 9 inches long and 7 inches wide. Greenish white until dead ripe, then pale yellow; of excellent flavor. Our season is hardly long enough to mature it unless started under glass.

Lake Champlain. 68 days. An early-maturing variety hav¬ ing few seeds and a very small seed cavity. Considered by market-gardeners as one of the most desirable kinds for critical markets. Nicely netted, medium-sized fruit with flesh of a beautiful golden yellow.

Miller’s Cream or Osage. 75 days. Fine, attractive fruits which sell quickly in market, and therefore a favorite among the truckers. The fruits are large and round, with light green, netted skin; thick, sweet, salmon-colored flesh.

Sugar Rock. 80 days. Most prolific. Oval, heavily ribbed fruits of medium size. Firm and very sweet.

Watermelons

An effort should be made to secure good, strong vines early in the season, and this can be done by taking care that the hills are large, mellow, and well-drained, with the manure placed so that they will not dry out quickly under hot suns. All possible protection from insects should be given the young plants, and their growth may be hastened still farther by frequent applications of liquid manure. Plant the seeds thickly and thin the plants to four of the strongest in each hill.

Sow 4 ounces to 100 hills; 1 V2 to 4 pounds, an acre

Cole’s Early. 75 days. A fine early Watermelon; can be grown over a large latitude; flesh bright red; fruit nearly round; rind thin.

Cuban Queen. Round; large; flesh bright red, very crisp, delicate, and sweet. An early and reliable sort.

Onion Seed

Good Onion Seed is the Foundation for a Good Crop

A good crop is impossible unless the soil is very rich and kept, clean. Use well-rotted manure freely, and get the crop in as soon as possible in the spring, no matter if the weather is cold and unpleasant. Sow in drills 1 foot apart and cover about one-third of an inch, treading or rolling after sowing, so that the hot, dry atmosphere may not dry up and destroy the sprouting seed. When 3 inches high, thin to 2 inches apart. Stir the ground freely without disturbing the young plants and keep free from weeds.

Sow bounce of seed to 100 feet of drill; 4 to 5 pounds, an acre Japanese Long White Bunching. This Onion should be planted in August in drills 14 inches apart. Late in the fall a small quantity of soil should be thrown against each side of the row for winter protection. Can be dug early in spring for rareripes. Requires light and well-drained soils.

Red Wethersfield. 110 days. One of the most productive and long-keeping. Bulbs deep purplish red, large, flat, strong-flavored, and grow to a large size the first year from seed.

Southport Red Globe. 130 days. This is a favorite with all who grow Red Onions. It grows to fair size, with very small neck, and bright red in color. We offer a fine stock.

Southport White Globe. 110 days. A large, showy, globular white Onion, which sells quickly in market. The bulbs grow quite rapidly and, if the seed is sown early, good-sized roots, suitable for pulling and marketing in a green state, are soon formed. They are mild-flavored, keep well, and the yield is good.

Spanish King or Prizetaker. 100 days. Bulbs very large, round, and handsome; rich yellow skin; mild, sweet, pure white flesh; quite free from stiff necks. Bottom well and yield enormously. A very desirable sort.

White Portugal or Silverskin. 95 days. Largely grown for white Onion sets. Bulbs large, fine in appearance, with silvery white skin and sweet, tender white flesh. They do not keep well, but are mild-flavored and excellent for family use and for pickling.

Yellow Globe Danvers. 110 days. Buxton type, selected, home-grown stock. Early; globe-shaped, with very small neck; large; good keeper. The best for general crop.

Aside from its value as a table vegetable, the Parsnip also furnishes a healthful and nourishing food for stock, and is especially valued for this purpose by dairymen. Sow the seed in drills 15 inches apart, as early as possible in spring, and thin the plants until they are 5 to 6 inches apart in the rows. The roots are improved by frost, and only enough for winter use need be taken up in the fall, leaving the rest in the ground until spring, to be dug up as required. By running a plow, such as is used for breaking sod, along one side of the rows, field crops of Parsnips will be thrown out so that they can be harvested easily. Deep, rich, heavy soil is best suited, but on any deep, rich, mellow soil the yield is good per acre, and the roots will be smooth and large if no fresh manure is used.

Sow y4ounce of seed to 100 feet of drill; 4 pounds, an acre

Champion Hollow Crown. 110 days. The variety most widely grown; tender, sweet; very productive.

Garden Peas

All smooth-seeded Peas may be planted as early in spring as the soil can be prepared for them. They are very hardy and will endure a low temperature, both before and after sprouting. By sowing for the first crop as early as is practicable, and for succession at intervals of about two weeks until the first of June, a good supply of this delicious vegetable may be enjoyed through the greater part of the summer. Late sowings, how¬ ever, do not yield so well as early ones, because the hot and dry weather is unfavorable to the development of the plants. The seeds should be sown in drills about 3 inches deep and from 3 to 4 feet apart, according to the variety, taller sorts requiring more room than the dwarf ones. Dwarf Peas require a very rich soil, while tall ones thrive best in rather thin ground which does not stimulate too luxuriant growth in the vines, to the detriment of the pods. The latter are frequently sown in double rows, with brush or support of some kind between them. Wrinkled Peas are not so hardy as the smooth sorts, and should not be sown so early, but are superior to them.

One pound of seed will sow 100 feet of drill; 120 pounds, an acre

Extra-Early Peas

Medium and Dwarf Sorts

Alaska. 60 days. One of the earliest in cultivation; about 75 per cent of the pods can be gathered at the first picking. Vines are very thrifty, growing about 2 feet high; pods small, but well filled with plump, excellent dark green Peas. Smooth seeded.

Gradus. 65 days. This is undoubtedly the greatest advance ever achieved in Peas, for it is as early as the first-earlies, with pods as large as the Duke of Albany and the same shape and color, each pod containing nine or ten wrinkled Peas of the typical fine marrow flavor, cooking very tender. Altogether, Gradus is the most distinct and largest-podded early Pea ever raised.

Hundredfold. 65 days. This is, without doubt, the very best dwarf Pea ever grown. We have found none so near per¬ fection as Hundredfold. It is the best-flavored and the largest-podded dwarf-growing sort in existence, ready about three days after the earliest, and bears an enormous crop of handsome, intensely dark green, fairly broad and pointed pods, 4 inches long, containing about eight large, dark green Peas of excellent quality. The vines are 16 inches high, sturdy, and resist heat well.

Laxtonian. 62 days. One of the best dwarf, wrinkled Peas for the market-gardener. Pods about 4 inches long, re¬ sembling those of Gradus, but a little earlier. Vines pro¬ ductive and vigorous; average height under 1^ feet.

Laxton’s Progress. 62 days. An improved Laxtonian type Pea. Larger dark green pods, very sweet; heavy bearer.

Little Marvel. 62 days. This is a Pea of extra value. It grows about 15 inches high with pods very dark green, well filled with five to seven Peas of excellent flavor; very pro¬ ductive; quite early. We recommend it for either the family garden or for market.

Nott’s Excelsior. 62 days. Robust and vigorous in growth; throws out laterals from the base of the stock, producing in profusion long, handsome pods, closely packed with large Peas of fine flavor; more vigorous and prolific, with larger pods and more Peas than either American Wonder or Premium Gem. Seed green and wrinkled. 1 foot.

Sutton’s Excelsior. 65 days. This is today probably the most popular dwarf wrinkled sort in America. In this variety we have an early dwarf wrinkled Pea in the front rank for earliness, with much larger and handsomer pods than any dwarf early wrinkled Pea yet introduced. The Peas are very tender and of superlative flavor. Height 15 inches.

The W. E. B. Co.’s Maud S. A favorite with the market- gardeners on account of its earliness, extreme productive¬ ness, vigor, and vitality, often resisting a drought and ma¬ turing a crop when ordinary sorts of earlies have failed. 2 feet. Smooth seeded.

Peppers

Sow in hotbed as early as April, transplant to rich, warm, mellow soil as soon as the weather has become warm and settled, setting them about 2 feet apart in drills 3 feet apart. Seed may be sown later, in the open ground when all danger from frost is over, and thinned to the distance given above.

One ounce of seed will produce 1,500 plants; x/2pound, an acre California Wonder. 125 days. Nearly as large as, but earlier than Chinese Giant; shape blocky and square ended. It may be set upright and is ideal to stuff and bake, or to serve whole for salad. Heavier and firmer than other sorts, walls exceptionally thick; flavor sweet and spicy with no bite to it.

Chinese Giant. 140 days. Very large; uniform; early; very mild.

Harris Early Giant. 110 days. A very early, large-fruited Pepper. The skin is scarlet-red and the moderately thick flesh is sweet and crisp.

Pumpkins

The Pumpkin is now little used except for agricultural pur¬ poses, the squashes being so much sweeter and drier and finer grained for the kitchen. The farmer, however, finds the Pump¬ kin a serviceable addition to his feed. The most common method of cultivation is to plant them with corn, two or three seeds to each hill.

Sow % pound to 100 hills; 3 to 4 pounds, an acre

Connecticut Field. 70 days. Very productive; largely grown for feeding stock.

Mammoth. 85 days. Immense size, often weighing over 100 pounds.

Sugar. 65 days. Round, not large, but very sweet, and an excellent table variety.

Winter Luxury. 90 days. Fine pie Pumpkin, round, color russet-yellow; flesh thick; fine flavor.

Radish

Sow in the open ground as soon as it can be worked, at intervals of ten days for a succession as long as wanted. Sow in hotbed or greenhouse in winter. The winter varieties should be sown in August and lifted before severe frost. As their tender and mild qualities depend on rapid growth, the soil should be rich, light and mellow.

Sow %ounce to 100 feet of drill; 10 to 12 pounds, an acre

Cooper’s Sparkler. 25 days. Quite distinct; fulfils every requirement; the color is a rich carmine-scarlet, with a very pronounced tip of the purest white. The roots, even when fully developed, are solid, crisp, sweet, and remain fit for use as long as the coarser kinds. It is equally well adapted for forcing in frames or growing in the open ground, for while the leaves are small, they are sufficiently large for bunching.

French Breakfast. 25 days. Olive-shaped; red above and white below; medium size; small top and of quick growth; crisp, sweet, and tender.

Icicle. 30 days. A handsome first-class early variety, in color snowy white. It grows to the average length of the long varieties, but holds its fullness well down to the tap-root. Exceedingly attractive and excellent in every way.

Long Brightest Scarlet. 30 days. Vivid scarlet, tipped with snow-white; rapid grower; quality fine.

Long Black Spanish. 65 days. Roots black; flesh white and slightly pungent. One of the hardiest and latest.

Round Black Spanish. 60 days. A popular round winter variety with black skin and mild sweet flesh. A good keeper.

Vick’s Early Scarlet Globe. 20 days. For forcing in the greenhouse, hotbed, or cold frame, and for sowing in open borders early in the spring, there is no other red variety so desirable. It is the earliest, its color is the handsomest, in flavor it is the mildest, most crisp, juicy, and tender. It forms a small top, and will stand a great amount of heat. It is the market-gardeners’ favorite forcing Radish. It will sell “three to one’’ compared with any round red sort.

White Giant Stuttgart. 50 days. Very early; grows to a large size; fine quality; firm and brittle.

Rhubarb

Mostly propagated by division of the roots. Set out the plants early in spring, although it is sometimes done in autumn. Make furrows of good depth, 3 to 4 feet apart, according to variety planted; across these furrows, at right angles, make others the same distance apart; at each intersection put three or four shovelfuls of good manure, and upon this set the plants.

Victoria. 150 days. In general use for the market; immense crops.

Salsify

When cooked, the roots have something of the flavor and odor of oysters. They may be boiled, used in soups, or grated and fried as fritters. Culture same as for parsnips and carrots. Roots are perfectly hardy, and may be left in the ground all winter, but should be dug early in spring, as the quality deteriorates rapidly with the second growth. A quantity of roots for winter use may be stored in a pit or in sand or damp earth in a cellar.

Sow %ounce of seed to 100 feet of drill; 8 pounds, an acre

Mammoth Sandwich Island. 140 days. A great improve¬ ment on the French sort generally cultivated. The roots are twice as large, smooth, tender, and well-flavored, re¬ sembling fair-sized parsnips.

Rhubarb

Reselected Bloomsdale Savoy Spinach

Spinach

One of the most important crops grown for greens, and may be had in good condition from very early in spring until cold weather. For early use, sow very early in spring, and for succession at intervals. The main crop, for spring and winter use, should be sown in September and the plants covered for winter.

Sow jounce of seed to 100 feet of drill; 10 pounds, an acre

Giant Nobel. 45 days. A new giant, thick-leaved type with long-standing qualities. An extremely heavy yielder.

Thick-leaved. 60 days. A large, upright-growing, early variety with very thick, large, slightly crumpled leaves of medium green color. Fine for fall and spring sowing. A rapid grower.

King of Denmark. 45 days. A new variety which stands a long while without running to seed; large yielder and of excellent quality.

Long-standing Bloomsdale. 43 days. A little later than Reselected Bloomsdale, but holds two weeks longer before throwing seed-stalks. Our stock of seed is the best obtainable.

New Zealand. 65 days. Substitute for Spinach during hot weather.

Old Dominion. An improved strain of Blight-resistant Savoy. Reselected Bloomsdale Savoy. 45 days. Hardy; well adapted for winter crops. Leaves large and wrinkled, like a Savoy cabbage.

Virginia Blight-resistant. 40 days. A valuable variety to use for fall sowing on account of its resistance to blight.

Marglobe Tomato

John Baer Tomato

Chalk’s Early Jewel Tomatoes

Tomatoes

For early use, sow in February or March in hotbed or in boxes and pots set in the warm window, and hasten the germi¬ nation and growth of the plants by good care and frequent watering. When the seedlings are about 3 inches high, trans¬ plant them to pots or in rows 4 to 5 inches apart, keeping the temperature at about 60 degrees. Subsequent transplantings will make them branching and stocky, but do not set them in the open ground until all danger from frost is past, then plant them in a warm, sunny place, and water them freely until they are well established. Some support which will keep the fruit above the ground and free from dirt should be given the plants.

One ounce of seed will produce 2,000 to 3,000 plants

Acme. 105 days. This has, for years, been considered a standard variety. Fruit pink, large, smooth, solid, never cracking, and holding its size well. A good long-distance shipper.

Chalk’s Early Jewel. 95 days. An early variety of brightest scarlet color, deep-fruited, very solid, with few seeds, and of excellent flavor.

Dwarf Champion. Plants compact, stocky and upright, re¬ quiring no support. The pink fruit is always smooth and handsome, ripening close to the core and never cracking. Dwarf Stone. 95 days. This splendid new variety is put out by Livingston. Valuable as a general-crop Tomato. Earliana. 90 days. This is considered the earliest red Tomato grown. Fair size; good shape; good quality.

Early June Pink. 90 days. Similar in habit to Earliana and about the best of the early purplish pink sorts. Fruits hang in clusters of six to eight.

Heterosis. This new, early variety has medium-sized, round, smooth fruits of a dark scarlet color, as high as twenty in a cluster. The plants are best cultivated with a single shoot. Supply limited.

John Baer. 95 days. Only a few days later than Earliana, it yields a much heavier crop of larger, more uniform, and more attractive fruit.

Marglobe. 118 days. Marglobe is a remarkable pure scarlet, globe-shaped variety of extra-large size and early maturity. It is resistant to nail-head rust and fusarium wilt. Attrac¬ tive, solid, and tasty.

Ponderosa. 110 days. The favorite large-fruited variety. Vines are of strong growth. When planted in rich soil, and pruned to single stem, the fruit often reaches one pound in weight.

Pritchard or Scarlet Topper. 112 days. A new midseason variety. Fruits large, smooth, and round. Fine for market. Strawberry (Winter or Ground Cherry). 85 days. The small fruits, enclosed in a husk, have a flavor like strawberries, and may be preserved like plums. The vines are always heavily loaded with fine fruits.

Turnips

For early crop, sow as soon as the ground can be prepared, in drills 15 inches apart, and thin the plants to stand 6 inches apart. Sow, for succession, at intervals of two weeks until the last week in July, and from that time onward until the last of August, sow for main crop. The sowings should always be made just before a rain, if possible, as the success of the crop depends in a great measure upon quick germination and rapid growth in the young plants.

Swedish Select Oats

Swedish Select Oats

This Oats has made for itself a reputation as an exceedingly heavy and reliable yielder. It is very hardy and prolific and yields beautiful white kernels which are especially desirable for the manufacture of rolled Oats. The straw is valuable for feed and for bedding. The sprangle-top heads, although long, are borne low down on the stalk, which seems to prevent lodging, and are very large in proportion to its stiff, bright, clean straw. As a rule, Oats yield a greater profit per acre than wheat, and they are also a more reliable crop. Market price.

Treat Oats with Ceresan before sowing. See page 51

Eureka Ensilage Corn

Thousands of farmers and dairymen who have used the Eureka Corn are still of the opinion that it has all the qualities that go to make it an ideal fodder and ensilage variety. It grows quite tall (some 12 to 15 feet), makes a thick growth of fodder, and is very prolific in ears which get to the proper condition for ensilage by the first to the middle of September. Our supply for this season is very choice stock, the genuine Eureka pro¬ duced for us in Virginia by a reliable grower. Market price.

Narragansett Sweepstakes Ensilage Com

Improved Learning Corn

A superior strain of Yellow Dent Corn, not only valuable for fodder and ensilage, but will produce a big crop of matured Corn almost anywhere in New England, often 100 bushels of shelled Corn per acre. Market price.

Narragansett Sweepstakes Ensilage

Corn

This is a hybrid Corn, produced through the breeding of twelve varieties from various sections of the country. By careful breeding the sugar content of Narragansett Sweep- stakes Ensilage Corn has been greatly increased. It will produce from five to ten tons more ensilage per acre, with a better food- value than other known varieties on the market. The yield is from seventeen to twenty-nine tons per acre. Due to the methods employed in breeding, Narragansett Sweepstakes Ensilage Corn has a very high vitamin content. Put up in 2-bushel sacks. Crop very short. Market price.

Sweet Com for Fodder

We are usually able to offer a good stock of this variety at a reasonable price.

Cover Crops

it is always wise to sow a cover crop on any land that is bare, in the fall as early as September. These crops are to be turned under in the spring and add much fertility to the soil, putting it in much better condition than if no cover crop were raised.

FieLd Peas

“Peas could be made to bring more nitrogen to the soils of this country every year than is now purchased annually by the farmers at the cost of millions of dollars.” — Yearbook of the U. S. Department of Agriculture.

Grain has been grown year after year on many farms, sap¬ ping the life and fertility of the soil. Here is a crop which is not only profitable but will return to the land the much-needed nitrogen. Peas are second only to clover in their soil-enriching properties, and can be grown under almost any condition of soil or climate. The vines make rich, nutritious hay, and if fed green to milch cows, the flow of milk will be almost doubled. They can be sown alone or with oats and fed green. It is sur¬ prising the amount of fodder which is produced in this way. Market price. Inoculate this seed with Stimugerm.

Dwarf Essex Rape

Makes Splendid Fall, Winter, and Spring Pasturage

This is a most important forage plant and is often used by the fruit-grower as a cover crop, or it is excellent for renewing humus in worn-out soils. It grows like a rutabaga, with a very leafy top but no swollen root.

Rape for fall use should be sown in July, August, or Sep¬ tember. It makes a large-yielding, nutritious, succulent green feed or pasturage all through the fall and early spring. Rape can be successfully sown both in the fall and spring. Early fall seeding, however, gives the best results. It is best sown in drills at the rate of 3 to 5 pounds per acre, or it can be sown broadcast, when from 6 to 8 pounds per acre should be used.

Sand, Hairy, or Winter Vetch

Hairy or Winter Vetches are increasing in popularity where- ever they are grown and are proving to be one of the most valuable crops for fall planting. They not only make a large yield of the most nutritious hay, but they improve the condi¬ tion and productiveness of land for crops to follow, as much as any crop that can be sown, not even excepting crimson clover and cowpeas. The forage is greatly relished by horses and all kinds of cattle, is very nutritious, and makes fine, milk- producing food. On some soils, Vetches seem to require soil inoculation, to give the best results, but on the great majority of our soils they will yield splendid crops without any inocu¬ lation whatever. Where Vetches do not do so well the first year, it is advisable to reseed them upon the same land, when the resulting crop will be a great surprise in its yield and growth. Inoculate this seed with Stimugerm

Sow 20 pounds of Vetch and 1 bushel of rye or oats to the acre

COWPEAS, New Era. This variety is of real value, both in the southern and in the northern states, as a green summer feed for sheep and as a green crop for plowing under to en¬ rich the soil. Sow for plowing under at the rate of 2 bushels to the acre, or with oats at the rate of 1 34 bushels of each per acre. Inoculate this seed with Stimugerm

BEAN, Soja ( Soja hispida ). Resembles a bean. The haulm is stiff and the pods are produced in clusters of from two to five, each containing four smooth, oval, nankeen-colored seeds. This plant is said to thrive well in hot and dry weather.

Inoculate this seed with Stimugerm

BUCKWHEAT, Japanese. Earliest and most productive of the Buckwheats.

RYE, Spring. Best northern-grown. Sow 134 bushels to the acre.

Winter. Sow in September and October. Sow 1 34 bushels to the acre.

WHEAT, Winter. Extra-choice stock.

Red-Top Grass

Grasses

For General Grass-seeding for Mowing-Lands

Sow Clover, Timothy, and Red-Top mixed. For an acre, 8 pounds Clover, 34 bushel Timothy, 8 pounds Fancy Clear Red-Top.

Treat your Grass Seed with SEMESAN before sowing. See page 51. Ask for descriptive pamphlet

The importance to the farmer of a good selection and proper mixture of grass seeds for the various purposes of cultivation, for mowing, for soiling, for permanent pasture, etc., cannot be over-estimated. We prepare a special mixture containing only the most suitable grasses for permanent pastures and meadow lands, such as Orchard Grass, Meadow Foxtail, Sheep’s Fescue, Rhode Island Bent, Meadow Fescue, English Rye Grass, Perennial Sweet Vernal, Red-Top, and Clovers. Two to four bushels of this mixture are needed to seed an acre, according to the condition of the land.

Astoria (R. I.) Colonial Bent. A fine, hardy, very compact grass; very permanent, readily forming a heavy sward. Sow 2 to 3 pounds per 1,000 square feet.

Certified Prince Edward Island Bent ( Agrostis tenuis). A pure, hardy strain of Rhode Island Bent grown on Prince Edward Island, Canada. Forms an ideal turf of dark green color and uniform in texture. Uniformity of texture is the principal requisite of a good putting-green without which the ball will not roll true. Sow 3 to 5 pounds to 1,000 square feet for a green and 2 to 3 pounds for lawn purposes.

Chewing’s Fescue. Perennial; 2 to 2 34 feet high; June and July. On account of its creeping habit is especially valuable for loose, sandy soils and embankments. It easily resists drought and often is green when other grasses are dried up. Sow 234 bushels an acre. (14 pounds to bushel.)

Crested Dog’s Tail ( Cynosurus cristatus). A perennial grass much valued for its dwarf habit and hardiness. Fine for lawns. Sow 2 to 3 bushels an acre. (28 pounds to bushel.) Domestic Rye Grass. Smaller seeded and finer leaved than the type. The smaller plants it produces are claimed to be more resistant to cold and superior for turf on fairways where grass is needed quickly.

Hard Fescue ( Festuca duriuscula). Perennial; 1 J4 to 2 feet high; June. The most vigorous of the dwarf-growing grasses. Thrives well in dry soils; comes early and withstands long droughts. Good hay or permanent pasture. Sow 2 34 bushels an acre. (14 pounds to bushel.)

Kentucky Blue ( Poa pratensis). Known as June-Grass. An early grass of great value; makes a close, velvety turf, and is excellent for pasture; generally sown mixed with other grasses. Sow about 3 bushels an acre, if used alone (finest seed 14 pounds to bushel).

Orchard Grass ( Dactylis glomerata). It is very satisfactory for the meadow when sown with other grasses, the hay being very nutritious, but it should be cut when in blossom. It is not suitable to sow alone, because of its tufted habit. Es¬ pecially adapted for shady places, particularly in orchards, wood-lot pastures, and usually sown in the spring, but under favorable conditions may be sown in the fall. Sow 30 to 40 pounds of seed an acre.

Red-Top ( Agrostis vulgaris). A great favorite, succeeding in a great variety of locations, giving very good results on light soils, and the very best on heavy, moist soils or lowlands liable to overflow, which are so apt to be sour and acid. It does not thrive on sandy or Ieachy soil. The first year it grows somewhat slowly, spreading by creeping root-stocks. Height, 1 to 234 feet. Maturing at about the same time as Timothy, it is used considerably with it and Red Clover to make a heavier yield. Cut when in bloom in July. It is also a splendid grass for lawns, and is very commonly included in mixtures. The usual rate of seeding is 14 to 16 pounds of fancy recleaned seed an acre, but if in the chaff, double the quantity.

PRICES ON GRASS SEEDS. — Owing to frequent changes, we cannot make a fixed price, but assure you we shall sell as low as the lowest for high-grade seeds.

Grasses, continued

Seaside Coos County Bent. A very useful grass for fine lawns and pleasure-grounds, on account of its short growth, deep green and fine-leaved foliage. Indispensable for golf- course, croquet, and cricket fields as well as general lawn formulas. Sow 3 to 5 pounds per 1,000 square feet.

Sudan Grass. A new forage plant closely related to the culti¬ vated sorghums; of value in the dry Middle West as a drought-resisting hay crop. In the East and North should be tried as a substitute for millet, as the crop is larger and has better feeding value. Care should be exercised in turn¬ ing cattle onto second growth. In rows, 4 to 6 pounds to the acre; broadcast, 20 pounds to the acre.

Timothy or Herd Grass ( Phleum pratense). A well-known nutritious grass, which on most soils will produce a better crop than any other variety. We offer a particularly choice quality of seed. Sow ^bushel an acre, if alone (45 pounds to the bushel).

Wood Meadow ( Poa nemoralis ). Well adapted for growing under trees and in shaded situations. Dwarf and fine-grow¬ ing. Sow about 2 bushels an acre. (14 pounds to bushel.)

Sudan Grass

Millet or Hungarian Grass Seed

Prices variable; subject to market fluctuation

Hungarian Grass ( Panicum germanicum) . One of our best forage plants and yields immensely, even when the weather is so dry that other crops dry up. One of the best annual grasses for green fodder or hay. Sow from June 15 to July 31. One bushel seeds an acre. (48 pounds to bushel.)

Millet, Japanese Barnyard ( Panicum Crus-galli ). This Millet is valuable as a green or dry fodder, or for soiling. It is erect in growth, very leafy, and the stalks are tender and succulent, even when matured. Produces from 15 to 20 tons green fodder per acre. As fodder crop sow 20 pounds to acre.

Millet, Tennessee Golden. Of strongest and taller growth than other Millets and does not mature so early. Sow 1 to bushels an acre. (50 pounds to bushel.)

Clovers

Clovers are a Necessity on Every Farm

Clovers enrich the soil, for their roots gather immense quan¬ tities of nitrogen-fixing bacteria, which take nitrogen from the air and leave it in the soil in a form readily available for grow¬ ing crops. Nitrogen is the most expen¬ sive chemical to buy in fertilizer. Why not make use of this cheap source and encourage their growth by the use of

Alsike. Hardy, productive, fragrant; succeeds best on stiff, cold soils.

Canadian Variegated Alfalfa. Grows and looks much like Grimm. In hardiness, intermediate between Grimm and Northwestern Common.

Common Alfalfa. Requires well-drained land and an abun¬ dant application of lime previous to sowing. August is the best time to sow. Use 20 to 25 pounds to the acre.

Crimson. An annual used for soiling and for plowing under to enrich the soil.

Grimm Alfalfa. Only a few strains of Alfalfa equal, and none excel true Grimm Alfalfa in hardiness. It is the safest type to sow wherever there is trouble from winter-killing.

Medium Red. The well-known Red Clover.

White. Used in nearly all mixtures for lawns and valuable for pastures.

White Blossom Biennial Sweet Clover. Of great value as a soil renovator. It will thrive on all classes of soil. Sow any time from April until the middle of September at the rate of 15 to 25 pounds to the acre.

Red Clover

SEMESAN BEL

Before planting your Potatoes, give your seed a Semesan Bel treatment, thereby greatly increasing the yield. It will also reduce scab. We will be pleased to mail you descrip¬ tive pamphlet. See page 51.

SEED INOCULATION

The Best Inoculation for All

Legume Seeds

Means Better Crops Better Soils,

Less Expense

Japanese Millet. (See page 47.)

Seeds of all legumes — Clovers, Alfalfa, Sweet Clovers, Beans, Peas, Vetches, Soy Beans, Cowpeas, etc. — will yield far better results if inoculated with Stimugerm, and, in addition, leave in the soil a heavy deposit of nitrogen which benefits all succeeding crops in the rotation. Stimugerm — always fresh — always strong and virile.

A Sensible Insurance and a Profitable

Investment

We believe in inoculation, we favor the pure jelly medium, and we believe in Stimugerm. We recommend that all legume seeds purchased from us be inoculated before planting.

HOW TO ORDER: Specify crop and number of bushels you wish to inoculate (one-bushel size contains sufficient bacteria to thoroughly inoculate one bushel of designated variety of legume seed).

NITRATE OF SODA. The most readily avail¬ able form in which nitrogen can be had. Largely used for forcing vegetables, strawber¬ ries, etc., for applying to grass fields after each cutting, producing a strong, healthy growth and wonderfully increasing the yield.

MURIATE OF POTASH. A popular form of the essential potash salts. It produces a very beneficial effect when applied to hay or pasture fields at the rate of 100 to 150 pounds to the acre. All root crops, potatoes, beets, turnips, and the like require a large proportion of potash in order to develop properly.

SULPHATE OF AMMONIA. The most highly concentrated form in which this very impor¬ tant plant-food element is obtainable. It should be used with caution and preferably mixed with other fertilizers, using not over 125 pounds of the Sulphate to the acre.

SORBEX. A specially selected, finely ground Peat Moss, and so fine that it may be used as a top-dressing for fine turf and will readily and quickly work into the turf. While it is not a fertilizer, it will put your soil in the correct mechanical condition for the fertilizer you may add, making it remain available for use by the plants. It will absorb and hold 10 to 12 times its own weight in moisture. 80-lb. bag (about 10 bus. when loosened) $3; Trial Package 10 cts.

Darling’s Fertilizers

DARLING’S ANIMAL FERTILIZER. Our

Animal Brand is a complete fertilizer for all crops, having a strong analysis of plant-food. Complete and well balanced, the above Fertilizer may be depended on to raise any crop on which it is used.

POTATO AND ROOT-CROP MANURE.

This Manure is well established with potato- growers, and for all root crops is considered one of the best-balanced fertilizers ever sold.

FARM FAVORITE. The highest-grade low- priced fertilizer on the market, and for all crops above ground will give good results.

DARLING’S PURE FINE BONE. Contains frQin 20 to 25 per cent of pure phosphoric acid, and 3 to 4 per cent ammonia. Best material from which phosphoric acid can be obtained.

DARLING’S LAWN DRESSING. Stable manure is objectionable, as it is bulky, con¬ taining a large amount of refuse material. It also contains the seeds of many weeds and obnoxioils grasses. By the use of this fertilizer, all these objections are removed. Will pro¬ duce an excellent growth of rich green grass.

W. E. BARRETT CO., Providence, R. I.

ACID PHOSPHATE. Guaranteed 16 per cent available phosphoric acid. Acid Phosphate is recommended for all grain and grass crops cowpeas, soy or soja beans, and for .applying to lands deficient in phosphoric acid. Bene¬ ficial results follow the addition of Acid Phos¬ phate to stable and barnyard manure, all manure being deficient in phosphoric acid but high in ammonia, the mixture giving a better balanced plant-food.

SOILTEX. Tells what your soil needs. A new, quick, accurate soil-testing method that de¬ termines exactly in a few minutes whether your soil is acid and how much lime it needs. Pocket-size soil-testing outfit, with color chart and lime table, $1.

P. M. PEAT MOSS. As a

material to improve the mechanical condition of the soil, G. P.

M. Peat Moss has no equal.

It helps to bind together loose and sandy soils and to break up and render more friable heavy and clayey soils. As a mulch, it meets every requirement. As a propagating material it has no equal, and is of great value in storing bulbs and as a forcing medium. Bales (about 19 bus.) $3.50; Trial Bales (about 14 lbs.) $1.50.

The Porter 3-Power Shears

These tools are tremendously powerful and are ruggedly built for life-time use. They are easily sharpened by the use of a half-round, second-cut file of the proper size. The edges are protected when the handles are closed, and in use the tool is much less apt to be dulled than an axe. All parts are carefully heat-treated. We believe these are the finest two-hand cutting tools ever made.

The Perfection Sprinkler

This Sprinkler was developed to overcome the dangers of over-watering golf-greens, fairways, parks, etc. Also the opposite danger of spotty irrigation — drying in some spots and wetting in others. High pressure is not required, and the Sprinkler will operate perfectly at any pressure from 10 to 60 pounds. The sprinkling area that can be covered is circular — 40 to 100 feet diam¬ eter, according to the pressure. Send for full descriptive circular. No. 1, $11.50.

March Automatic Rainmaker

Sprinkles rectangles, not circles. Covers large areas rapidly without overlapping, and is quickly adjusted to water small spaces. Sprinkles along edge of walks or drives without wetting them. Ordinary water-pressure from lawn hose turns the pipe-line of nozzles as an axis, throwing the streams of water from one side over to the other with a constant, steady swing. Thousands in use on city lawns, large estates, golf courses, cemeteries, and parks. Made in four sizes — watering from 1,200 to 3,000 square feet at a setting. Write for prices and literature.

Armstrong Original Fountain

Sprinkles a full circle with mist- like spray. No moving parts. Sim¬ ple and efficient. 75 cts.

The Rip Sprinklers

The Rip (Spike Type), with only three parts (one moving part), is the last word in perfected Sprinklers. Gives an even spread of water in natural, rain-like spray. Does not waste water through leakage. It may be choked with sand but it will clean itself out. $1.

HOTKAPS

protect plants against birds, insects, rain, frost, hail, or wind. They force growth and bring maturity 2 to 3 weeks sooner. Yield is increased 10 to 25 per cent. Each Hotkap is a miniature hothouse for the plant underneath.

Prices: 1,000 for $9.75; package of 250 with Setter and Tamper, $3.50; package of 100 with Setter and Tamper, $2.25; Steel Setter, $2.50. Garden Setter, 50 cts. Postage extra.

Gator Hide Mulch Paper

Unrolled over the proposed plant-beds, and anchored by soil or other available material along the edges. Gator Hide Mulch Paper im¬ prisons all the moisture in the soil. It catches and retains the sun’s heat. This raises the soil’s temperature, prevents cooling at night, and pro¬ motes continuous bacterial activity, liberating night and day nitrous food matter for the plant, producing bigger, better, and earlier crops.

Planting is done through holes made in the paper, or in the space between two strips of paper rolled out close together. Ample space is provided for plants, but none is left for weeds; nourishment which the latter usually steal from soil is saved for crops.

Type A — for Annuals — primarily in field culture: 18 in. wide, 300 linear yards to the roll, $2; 36 in. wide, 300 linear yards to the roll, $4.

Type B — for Perennials — -in field culture and all garden work; 18 in. wide, 150 linear yards to the roll, $2; 36 in. wide, 150 linear yards to the roll, $4.

Planet Jr. No. 25 Hill and Drill Seeder and Wheel Hoe

This new combined machine is intended for gardeners who have enough acreage in crops for a double Wheel Hoe to be used to good advan¬ tage, and yet prefer not to buy Seeder and Wheel Hoe separately.

“Superb” Ball-bearing Lawn Mower

Mowers

Townsend’s Kutail Lawn Mower

Gets the weeds while mowing the grass. This wonderful new invention cuts all the weeds, wild onions, plantains, dandelions, buckthorn, etc., in the path of the Mower. No more back¬ aches from pulling weeds out of your lawn — no need of a sickle. The hook-like rake between the cutting-blades draws the weed into the machine and either breaks it or the knife immediately following cuts it off.

Coldwell Power Lawn Mowers

The Cub Power Lawn Mower

THE CUB is a light, substantially built power Mower with a 21-inch detachable front cutting unit and a full-width drive roller. The drive roller is divided and driven through a differ¬ ential so that sharp turns can be made without cutting the lawn. It is possible to cut close to trees or walls so that a finished job can be done without the use of a hand Mower.

THE TWIN L has a cutting width of 25 inches and will cut from 4 to 6 acres a day on large areas of lawn. The motor is a Coldwell, 4-cycle, water-cooled Bosch magneto and Tillotson carburetor. Height of cut, % to 2 inches. Fuel-consumption, 1 gallon gasoline for 10 hours’ running. The gasoline tank holds sufficient fuel for full day’s cutting.

Gang Units can be furnished for the Twin L increasing the cut to 60 inches.

THE TWIN 30 has a capacity of from 6 to 8 acres per day. The motor is the same as used in the Twin L and the Mower has a cutting width of 30 inches.

A magnificent Mower, with 42-inch wheel and 7-inch reel. It is the only Mower on the market «, with 12-inch wheel. The large wheel adds to the •power and ease of operation. The large reel enables it to cut through grass so high that it would choke most other Mowers. It possesses these two great advantages without the dis¬ advantage of extra weight, the strength not having been sacrificed.

Townsend’s “Flyer” Ball-bearing Lawn Mower

A good, free-cutting, easy-running Mower, with open wheel and frame, made on the two- gear principle. Gears well up from the ground and fully shielded so as to exclude dirt and cut grass. Has 9-inch wheels, 4-bIaded reel, the finest bottom knife and the famous Townsend finish.

The “Capitol” Lawn Edger

This machine should be in the hands of every man who has a lawn to cut and trim. It does work no other machine can do and finishes the work undone by a lawn mower. It trims and edges lawns with re¬ markable speed and ac¬ curacy, and the little plow forms a drain in gravel walks, driveways, and around flower- or shrub-beds. Made in one size only.

Plows and Harrows

McCormick-Deering Two-Way Sulky Plow

This 2-wheel Plow can be turned very short, and it is well suited to small and irregular¬ shaped fields. It is a horse-lift, the raising of the bottom being accomplished by a dog and rachet arrangement on the wheel-hub. The levers are equipped with auxiliary hand¬ grips which enable the plowman to operate the levers when walking behind the Plow. Regular equipment: Quick, detachable Shares, 13-in. Rolling Colters.

McCormick-Deering Tractor Plows

Sturdiness and dependability are combined with light weight, light draft, and low price in these Plows. Parts subject to strain are heat-treated and weight placed only where necessary. Plenty of clearance between bot¬ toms and under beams, enabling the Plows to do good work on trashy ground. Can also be supplied in Single-Bottom, 18-in., for corn- borer control.

Acme Pulverizing Harrow

Not a special tool, but, as its name implies, a general-purpose Harrow. It will crush, cut, lift, turn, smooth, and level all in one opera¬ tion. Nothing but the colters can possibly wear, and they can be replaced at a low cost.

McCormick-Deering Spike-Tooth Harrows

The closed-end Harrow has outside cross¬ bars at the end of the tooth-bars, which serve as guards to prevent the ends of the tooth-bars from damaging trees when working in or¬ chards. The teeth are by J^-inch and are diamond-shaped. Draw-bars are furnished, except on the single section. Can be supplied in 1- and 4-section sizes with 25, 30, or 35 teeth to the section.

McCormick-Deering Spring-Tooth Harrows

The McCormick - Deering Spring - Tooth Harrows can be supplied in either the channel or round pipe-bar. The spring-teeth are se¬ curely attached to the bars and will not work loose. Penetration of the teeth is regulated by the levers. There is one lever to each section.

McCormick-Deering Disc Harrows

The discs used on all McCormick-Deering Harrows, both horse-drawn and tractor, are subjected to a special heat-treating process which hardens, tempers, and toughens to exactly the right degree the fine saw steel from which they are made. You can hurl one of these discs against a concrete floor without hurting its edge. You can bend it clear out of shape in a vise and it will spring back into shape. You can lay it on the floor and hit it with a sledge. You will have to hit it mighty hard to dent it. Discs that will stand such treatment will stand abuse in the field.

Clarkes Cutaway Utility One-Horse

Harrow

The Utility Harrow, as its name implies, has a wide variety of uses and is ideal for the farmer who wants a one-horse Harrow that will give thorough tillage. Being spaced only 5 inches apart, the 10 discs thoroughly chop and pulverize the soil. The discs are Clark Cutaway quality.

Clark’s Tractor Bush and Bog Plow and Harrow

This is a special heavy-duty implement for subduing new land, for plowing bogs, old pastures, or for any plowing or harrowing job too difficult for ordinary implements. It is also used extensively for orchard tillage. Discs are 24 inches in diameter. This service¬ able machine is made in four sizes; use with tractor or horses.

Reversible gangs will be furnished with or without weight-box. Screw-control is regular equipment, but lever will "be furnished if it is preferred.

Repair Service

It is our endeavor to carry at all times a full line of replacement parts for machines we sell, thus trying to avoid vexatious delays to our customers in supplying parts needed.

Clark’s Single- and Double- Action Cutaway Harrow

The discs are cutlery steel, forged sharp. Bearings are hardwood, soaked in oil, which wear smoother, give less friction, and outlast metal, making them cheaper to replace when it is necessary to do so. The draft is light, due to the elimination of the truss construc¬ tion of the forward discs, making it possible to hitch the team closer than on any other Harrow.

International Culti-Packer

This is one of the best built machines that ever helped the farmer to get a bumper crop. The frame is made of heavy angle steel bars, bolted fast. Two channel steel bars run diagonally from the tongue across the frame. It takes the place of the old roller. This is not only a clod crusher, but a pulverizer, packer, and cultivator. This machine is practically indestructible and will last a lifetime. Length 54 inches. Weight 560 pounds.

John Deere Spreader

A Revolution in the Art of Spreader Building

Beater on axle makes it easy to assemble; easy to load — 36 inches high; easy to operate — only two levers.

Ball-bearing eccentric and positive ratchet feed insure easy and uniform operation of steel-link apron under all conditions.

All-steel, 10-bar beater mounted on roller bearings — practically indestructible — easy running.

Farm Implements

McCormick'Deering Spreader

Making money from increased crop-produc¬ tion is the result of proper application of manure to the soil. This can be done with a McCormick-Deering Spreader. The McCcr- mick-Deering has quality, it is efficient, dependable, and will last for years. The low box makes loading easy, and requires only two horses to pull its capacity load.

McCormick-Deering End Gate Lime Sower

This Sower will stand up under hard usage and will serve efficiently under almost all spreading conditions. The essential features are simplicity, durability, wide sowing-range, and a non-clog feed. It is quality built throughout.

Nonpareil Lime and Fertilizer Sower

Nonpareil Sowers will distribute success¬ fully every known kind of agricultural lime and commercial fertilizer used on the farm, provided it will pass through the screen into the hopper of the sower. Commercial fertilizer is perhaps the hardest material to sow success¬ fully, and unless it is absolutely dry it is im¬ possible to sow in a satisfactory way less than 600 pounds to the acre.

Wet or damp material is very hard to sow with any degree of success and we do not recommend Nonpareil Sowers for this work. But they are guaranteed to work successfully when material is in fit condition to be put through a sower.

McCormick'Deering Fertilizer Distributors

Two sizes: 7- and 9-foot

These Sowers will distribute evenly all kinds of commercial fertilizers in quantities of approximately 10 to 2,350 pounds. A de¬ sirable feature is that the distributing parts of the machine can be taken completely apart, cleaned, and reassembled in from five to ten minutes’ time. The bottoms are lead-coated, to resist the corrosive action of the fertilizer. They can also be used as broadcast seeders for the common varieties of grain, such as wheat, oats, barley, etc.

McCormick'Deering Potato Planter

This Planter can be furnished with or with¬ out fertilizer attachment. The seed-hopper holds about three bushels and the Planter will handle cut seed and whole small potatoes with a high degree of accuracy. Improved picker- arms catch the seed, a piece at a time, and convey it to the discharge-boot, which con¬ veys it to the furrow.

King of the Cornfield Planter

Plants corn, beans, and peas, and distrib¬ utes fertilizer accurately. Has proved itself adapted to every requirement. Durable and simple in construction and not liable to get out of order.

Farm Implements

McCormick-Deering No. 102 Corn Planter

McCormick-Deering No. 102 Planter covers every possible requirement for planting corn and is recommended where the utmost accu¬ racy is required. Since the kernels vary more in length and breadth than they do in thickness, the edge-drop plate, or, as it is sometimes called, the edge-selecting plate, naturally gives the greatest degree of accu¬ racy. For ungraded corn, the flat-drop plates will probably give greater accuracy. The point is, however, that you can have edge-, flat-, or full-hill-drop plates for your Mc¬ Cormick-Deering Planter. You can have full runner, stub runner or disc furrow- openers.

McCormick-Deering Riding Cultivator

This Cultivator, with 6 shovels, spring trip, is adapted to all row-crops. The axles are pivoted, and each gang has a double steel beam connected by broad couplings to a movable steel bar which is suspended from a steel I beam riding on two long rollers. Gangs are shifted by the feet.

McCormick-Deering One-Horse Cultivator

These are built in three sizes with 5, 7, and 9 shovels. Each can be equipped with lever expander, lead wheel with wing hillers, and horse-hoe. The strength of the frame is sufficient to withstand the severest use to which it would be subjected under average working conditions.

McCormick-Deering 14'Tooth Cultivator

The sharp teeth do an excellent job of mulching the soil and killing the weeds. They are clamped to the side-bar with two bolts and have three adjustments for changing the cutting angle. Furnished with lead wheel and lever expander.

All steel except the handles, the beam being made of two sturdy angle-steel bars. Its teeth can be set in a straight line across the row or in V shape, to move the dirt toward the center of the row, or reverse to move the dirt toward the crop-row. Can also be set in a diagonal line either way to throw the dirt in one direction, as on hillsides.

Farm Implements

No. 9 Planet Jr. Horse Hoe

Popular because of its strength, lightness, easy change of width, and perfection of work. Will stand incredible strain; you can cultivate to any reasonable depth and adjust for any useful width.

Planet Jr. No. 8 Horse Hoe

Similar to the No. 9 except that it has a depth-regulator and lever wheel, handle adjustment up or down for height, and an important side adjustment.

Planet Jr. No. 7 Horse Hoe

Same as the No. 8 without the depth- regulator. It works the same as No. 8 in every way except that it lacks the steadiness and easy control of depth made possible by the depth-regulator.

Planet Jr. No. 83 7 -Tooth Plain Cultivator

The 7 teeth are 2 3 T inches wide and their work is finer and more thorough than the 3-inch teeth used with the above Cultivators. Finishes all rows up to 42 inches apart and will work the middle courses in one passage. Can be run deep or shallow.

The Farmall Cultivator

The Farmall 2-Row Cultivator will culti¬ vate 25 or more acres a day, depending on the condition of the crop, and up to 60 acres with a 4-row outfit. This applies to corn, beets, beans, potatoes, and other row-crops com¬ monly grown on a large-scale basis. The ability of the Tractor to turn in a circle of 8-foot radius eliminates wasteful turning areas at the ends of rows, and also makes it possible to cultivate all rows consecutively.

Planet Jr. 12-Tooth Harrow and Cultivator

With the 12-tooth Harrow you go as deep or shallow as you like, come close to the row without injuring the plants, cut out the weeds, stir the soil, and mellow and fine it as with a garden rake. A special favorite with market- gardeners, strawberry-growers, and truckers.

McCormick-Deering Potato Digger

The fact that in the few years since the McCormick-Deering Diggers were placed on the market they have jumped into the front rank of the machines of their class, is proof of the correct design, strength, and light draft of these Diggers. They get all the potatoes under most difficult conditions. The agitation is correct and is controlled according to conditions by interchange of agitating sprockets.

McCormick-Deering Mowers

No. 7 Enclosed Gear

The entire driving mechanism of this new Mower, including the drive gears, ratchets, and countershafts, runs in a deep bath of oil, thus, insuring thorough lubrication. This arrangement of gears, grouped as they are in one common gear-case, is greatly superior to the older type of Mower with its open gears and ratchets in the wheel-hub. The gear- case holds a full gallon of oil, with a tight- fitting cover to exclude all dirt and prevent oil-leakage. Ask for special circular on this Mower.

When you select an Engine, you want one that will save you money in doing your work and give you years of satisfactory service. McCormick-Deering Engines are doing this all over the country for their owners. They will lighten your tasks and save you many days of weary, hard work. They are built in 134 3, 6, and 10 H. P. sizes.

The Farmall Mower cuts a 7-foot swath and is built with the same high standard of construction as other McCormick-Deering Mowers. It is power driven by the Farmall engine through transmission by means of the power take-off. The cutter-bar is made of high carbon steel tempered in oil. Cut gears are used and are enclosed and run in a bath of oil. It can be attached in a few moments’ time because the method of attaching is simple, one bolt only being used. Running at the usual cutting speed, from 25 to 30 acres can be cut in a day.

McCormick-Deering Hay-Rakes

All McCormick-Deering Hay-Rakes are made of steel throughout and will stand up successfully under rough usage. Bushings in the wheels can be removed and replaced when worn. The height to which it lifts can be adjusted for light or heavy hay.

MYERS HAYING TOOLS

Clover Leaf Hay Unloader

Heavily and substantially built of malleable iron throughout. Fitted with wide-open mouth to receive the fork pulley when ap¬ proaching in any direction. Also has a swing¬ ing fork pulley which relieves the car from all strain when drawing hay over a high beam or into a well-filled mow. Track wheels revolve on J^-inch turned steel axles. Rope sheaves have larger hub than any other make of carrier. The lock consists of three parts and has no springs. Carrier is adjustable to any standard make of steel track.

Made either for wood or steel track. Price, $9.

Myers Hay Forks

Automatic Grapple Fork

The Automatic Grap¬ ple Fork is made with either 4 tines or 6 and is unlike any other inasmuch as it is not only balanced

tion the natural pull on the trip-rope closes the fork and locks it securely, thus returning it to the load all ready to enter the hay without any attention whatever from the operator as to the setting of the lock, etc. It is doubly braced through¬ out, making it very rigid and strong. 4-tine, $9.50; 6-tine, $11.

The Double Harpoon Forks are made in two lengths of tine, 25 and 31 inches, and are the same excellent quality as the Automatic Grapple. 25-in. $2.25; 31-in. $2.50.

Louden Haying Tools

Louden Single Drum Power Hoist

Belt it up with your tractor or any engine of 4 horse-power or more, and start your engine. Nothing happens at the hoist until you pull a lever — the moment you let go it springs into neutral — you can’t forget to make it safe. Hard maple conical blocks form the clutch. Pull the main lever and your clutch takes hold gradually but surely. Your load of hay goes up as fast as a team could take it — the hoist takes the place of an extra team at haying-time. To return, work the other lever — it is much quicker and easier than turning a horse or team around and wasting your strength pulling the carrier back by hand. The hoist, besides taking the place of a team at harvest -time, is mighty handy for heavy lifting of all kinds. The big brake holds the load securely at any point desired.

Louden Senior Hay Carrier

The Louden Senior Hay Carrier is a sturdy, dependable carrier built to safely lift a load of 1,500 pounds — a good deal more than would ever stick to even such a greedy fork as the Louden Balance Grapple shown below. The rope wheel and pulley are 7 inches in diameter and roller bearing. This makes the draft easier and gives longer wear to the rope. The Louden Senior Carrier is reversible so that it can be used in center-drive or end- hoist barns.

Louden Balance Grapple Fork

Unless you have actually used a Louden Grapple Fork, it will be hard to convince you of how easy it is to set, what enormous loads of all kinds of hay or straw it takes up, how clean it takes the hay off the rack, how little it spills. No special care is required in loading the hay — the Balance Grapple Fork clinches its wide-spread steel tines about a big load of hay and mows it away. The fork comes down open, a 12-year-old boy can guide it to the next “bite” as it comes down, then a step on each end to ram it into the load — a snap of the latch, and you are all ready for another pull.

The Yankee Hay Rake

This Rake is an old New England favorite and is preferred by those who wish a wood- frame construction with wood wheels. Its construction is simple and it is adapted to any and all conditions of surface. Each tooth is independent and supplied with a spring that will permit the tooth to pass safely over any obstruction that the axle may pass. It has more teeth (which are hung nearer together) than any other Rake.

McCormick-Deering Ensilage Cutters

McCormick-Deering Ensilage Cutters have made a reputation for themselves because of sturdy construction and proper design. They are built of high-grade material throughout. Steel is used where it gives the best service. Special attention is called to the No. 12 Cutter which is made with a one-piece main frame and transmission case which encloses all working parts and permits them to run in a bath of oil — automobile type of transmis¬ sion. Type F has a capacity of 3 to 6 tons per hour; Type G, 8 to 10 tons; and No. 12, 12 to 16 tons.

McCormick-Deering Adjustable . Windrow Hay-Loader

These gearless Hay-Loaders are made . in one width only, and are also equipped with an adjustable section so that hay can .be delivered 3 feet nearer the rack when starting the load, but the side boards do not fold. The gearless Hay-Loader picks up hay from the swath as well as the windrow. One man can operate it, if necessary, thus doing with¬ out a rake.

McCormick-Deering Side Rake and Tedder

The McCormick-Deering Side Rake and Tedder is instantly convertible from a Side Rake to a Tedder by changing the direction in which the reel revolves. One lever controls the direction while another sets the teeth at the correct angle for raking or tedding. A McCormick-Deering Side Rake and Tedder will often make it possible for you to cut hay and get it into the barn the same day. The one machine does two important jobs.

International Tedders

On International Hay Tedders the forks are provided with long coiled-steel springs which allow them to spring back when an obstruction is encountered. The springs also relieve the Tedder of the strain caused by the rapid movement of the forks. The power is applied from the center of the main shaft, distributing the strain equally over the entire Tedder. Springs between the main and thill frames absorb shock and vibration. Clutch and balancing levers are within easy reach of the driver. Shafts can be converted into pole for two horses. Made in 6- and 8-fork sizes.

McCormick-Deering Corn Binder

The McCormick-Deering Corn Binder picks up down and leaning corn and follows rows easily. Vital parts are easily accessible; elevator chains gather and hold stalks upright until bound; makes firm, squarely butted bundles; and the reliable knotter ties right every time. It binds tall or short corn. All parts subject to a great amount of friction are equipped with roller bearings.

The Centaur Farm Tractor

McCormick-Deering 10-20 and 15-30 Tractors

Unit construction is used throughout in the design and building of these Tractors. By unit construction is meant that all parts, such as the engine, transmission, clutch, etc., are built as units and assembled in the main frame. Each unit can be removed without disturbing the other units.

The Model G 10-5 H. P. Centaur is a light farm Tractor of wide utility range. The Centaur plows, harrows, seeds, mows, hauls, and furnishes belt power. The Model G Cen¬ taur will do all the power work on the farm having as much as 50 acres under cultivation.

In all kinds of work the Centaur is easy to operate and does the job quicker, easier, bet¬ ter, and at a less cost than it can be done in any other way.

McCormick-Deering Farmall Tractors 10-20 and 15-30

The Farmall is a triple-power Tractor sup¬ plying power on the draw-bar, belt, and power take-off. This Tractor will do all the work of the ordinary Tractor, and, in addition, do the planting, cultivating, and mowing. The steer¬ ing mechanism enables short turns to be made quickly and at ease. The Tractor can turn in a circle having an 8-foot radius.

McCormick-Deering F 12 Farmall Tractor

Gravely Tractor

This is a compact, single - wheel ma¬ chine of perfect balance and has 5 2 34" by 10-inch cultivator steels. It is so small and narrow of tread that you can cultivate crops planted in 10-inch rows, yet so powerful that you can work 33^-foot row at one sweep. A midget i but a giant in power.

a

in size

This new smaller Farmall 12 is a Tractor with a surprising amount of power for its size. Because of its low operating cost, it supplies economical power for any farm.

LOUDEN BARN EQUIPMENT

Emancipator Litter- Carrier

Takes out the equal of five wheelbarrow loads at a single trip, and takes it out clean, without spilling or dripping. Dumps the entire load into the manure-pit or spreader.

It will save you more hard, disagreeable work than any implement about the place. The big tub is loaded almost as quickly as a wheelbarrow carrying only one-fifth as much.

Detachable Water-Bowls

The winter slump in milk-production is, in a large measure, due to the cows not getting enough water to drink. Louden Water-Bowls do away with that disagreeable chore of having to turn the cows out to water once or twice a day, no matter how disagreeable the weather.

Louden Steel Stalls and Stanchions

Farmers who have used them say that the cows will pay for the complete Steel Stalls and Stanchions in two years out of the extra production the pasture comfort makes possible.

Crumb Chain Hanging Wood Stanchions

This device is made of thoroughly seasoned hardwood, framed and bolted together in the most substantial manner. At its opposite ends chains are attached by which it is suspended from the top beam of the stall-frame and secured thereto by a chain of sufficient length to allow it a free and easy motion in all directions.

Useful as a wood- preservative; effective against ants; and as a protection against chicken mites and fowl tick it cannot be excelled. Application once a year will do the work. Gal. $1.75.

Carbola

Carbola, a powerful disinfectant that dries white, is non-caustic and absolutely non-poisonous. It controls lice, mites, nits, fly-eggs, etc., and disease germs and their spores with which it comes in contact. Carbola comes in powder form, and may be applied with either a brush or sprayer. One gallon will cover about 200 square feet. There is no waiting, straining, or bother of any kind in its preparation; it is ready for use as soon as it is mixed with water. 5-Ib. pkg. 75 cts.; 10-Ib. pkg. $1.25; 25-Ib. pkg. $2.75; 50-Ib. pkg. $5.

Buckeye Incubators

Buckeye Incubators are the result of over thirty-five years of study and experiment, and they include today every possible device for the promotion of the highest efficiency in incubation. They will hatch more and better chicks than any other Incubator in the world. The top and sides of the four larger Incubators have two walls of lumber with one thickness of insulation. Ply¬ wood is used exclusively in the cases of the Buck¬ eye Incubators, and will withstand all kinds of atmospheric changes without the slightest danger of warping, splitting, or pulling apart. It will not retain the odors of hatches. The hot-water cir¬ culating tank is of pure copper — it will never rust or corrode. The automatic regulator is the most perfect device of its kind ever invented — it assures the uniform temperature essential to proper incubation at all times. The lamp sup¬ plied on the four larger sizes bears the label of the Insurance Underwriter’s Laboratory, and assures you of getting an Incubator that is fireproof.

The Model No. 65 is a smaller Incubator, built for beginners and specialty breeders, and of plywood construction, with walls and top con¬ structed to prevent waste of heat. While this model does not bear the Underwriter’s Label, it is provided with a safe, reliable lamp and heating system. All Buckeye Incubators, except the No. 65, are equipped with Automatic Egg¬ turning Trays. Capacity

Buckeye CoabBurning Colony Brooder

The Buckeye Stove has been proved to be one of the most efficient Coal-burning Brooder Stoves ever devised. An accurate double-wafer thermostat assures uniform temperature at all times, holds an even fire, and prevents it from going out. No matter how low or how suddenly the temperature outside drops, the Buckeye has abundant capacity to care for all the chicks. It keeps them warm, comfortable, and thriving. It prevents chilling, crowding, and smothering. And it not only provides plenty of heat under the hover, but it also keeps the room warm for many feet around. Capacity Weight Each

The Newtown Colony Brooder

Don’t be content with ordinary Brooders. They are the most expensive kind. You can’t afford them. There is no comparison between Newtown and other type Brooders. Regardless of the type of other Brooders, you get more chick-raising ability and greater satisfaction, dollar for dollar, in a Newtown Coal-burning Brooder than in any other kind ever built. That’s a fact. Comparisons prove it.

The New Gro-Mor Brooder

Battery Brooder advantages at minimum cost. Now, in the Gro-Mor, at most moderate prices are combined wire screen floor, full enclosure, long-life construction, non-glowing element, and outside feeder and waterer.

Sides are galvanized steel, with deep, stiffen¬ ing folds. The feed and water-openings, with turned edges, are readily adjusted to retain the smallest chicks. Both feeder and waterer are unusually large and readily detached for refilling.

The top is heavy fiber-board. It conserves heat remarkably well and for that reason is pre¬ ferred. Barring abuse, it will last for years.

The 40-watt, fully enclosed, non-glowing ele¬ ment is of 7^-inch diameter and develops ample heat in rooms 50° or above.

Floor-area is 24 x 24 inches; headroom, 7 inches. Price competes with cheapest all-paper Brooders, considering costs per square inch of floor-area. The element we include is easily worth $1. $3.75.

The Tycos Incubator Hygrometer is not a regulator of moisture but is an indicator of con¬ ditions, so that if not correct they may be made so. Illustration shows the correct position of the instrument in use, taking the place of one egg in the egg-tray, thus showing the conditions surrounding the eggs. The amount of moisture required during the period of incubation varies from 65 per cent to 53 per cent. The first week there should be about 65 per cent of moisture, the second week about 60 per cent, and the last week about 53 per cent. The amount of moisture may be easily regulated by adding or taking away shallow pans of water, sprinkling the eggs, and by increasing or decreasing the ventilation. $1.75.

Fyler’s Anti-Pick

Fyler’s Anti-Pick comes in paste form. At the first signs of picking, smear the paste all over the bird or birds that have been abused, particu¬ larly on the affected parts; also smear on about one-fifth of the rest of the flock. The birds do not like the taste of Anti-Pick and learn not to repeat the habit. 3-oz. jar 25 cts.; 8-oz. jar 50 cts.; 20-oz. jar $1.

Starter Intermediate Battery

Who could ask for more in a Battery than these positive factors for superior performance:

Convenient size — 5 sections, no more, no less.

Maximum feed- and water-space — 78 inches of feeders, plus 26 inches of waterer per floor, or 1 inch for each 11 square inches of floor-area. To ascertain what these figures mean, make some comparisons.

Welded wire side assemblies instantly re¬ movable; full swinging front for easy handling of chicks. Any section can be cleared of chicks as fast as the operator can handle them. No fool¬ ing; no lost time; least disturbance!

Large feeders, equipped with waste-preventing grids, are mounted outside as preferred by ex¬ perienced operators, and are adjustable for height to reduce feed-waste and prevent breast- blisters.

625-chick capacity, with full electric equip¬ ment, $75

The Elect-O-Stat Brooder

MAKOMB

Those familiar with Electric Brooders will per¬ haps wonder why the heating element is so large — 36 inches square. A 36-inch square has more than twice the area of a 24-inch. Despite the general practice of using small low-cost elements, Makomb builds this type because it reduces the temperature variation under the canopy and uses the current more efficiently. Tests show as much as 34° variation from edge to edge in leading competitive Brooders.

The element is a dust-tight, welded assembly, a one-piece unit. It carries two heating circuits of 500 watts each, either of which carries on should the other fail. In the Elect-O-Stat you now secure the absolute safety of two elements wired to operate together, but each also ready to operate alone and each able to produce the heat needed under ordinary conditions. We guarantee this element for one year; it is built to last ten years.

This Brooder can be used as either a 40-inch or 52-inch size, depending on the number of chicks. Even though not actually needed now, a 52-inch, with its 400- chick capacity, will likely be used at a later date.

The Elect-O-Stat canopy is so steep that fowls cannot roost on it. With reasonable care it will last a decade. $24.
