Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cultivation of asparagus for home use as well as for market is so rapidly increasing, and reliable information pertaining to it is so frequently asked for, that a book on this subject is evidently needed. While all works on vegetable culture treat more or less extensively on its cultivation, so far there has been no book exclusively devoted to asparagus published in America. Asparagus is one of the earliest, most delicious, and surest products of the garden. Its position among other vegetables is unique, and when once planted it lasts a lifetime; it may be prepared for use in great variety, and may be canned or dried so as to be available at any time of the year; and yet in the great majority of farm gardens it is almost unknown. The principal reason for this neglect is based upon the erroneous idea that asparagus culture requires unusual skill, expense, and hard work. While this was true, in a measure, under old-time rules, modern methods have so simplified every detail connected with the cultivation of asparagus as to make it not necessarily more expensive and laborious than that of any other garden crop. To describe and make clear these improved methods, to demonstrate how easily and inexpensively an asparagus bed may be had in every garden, and how much pleasure, health, and profit may be derived from the crop have been the principal inducements to writing this book. In a popular treatise on so widely distributed a vegetable as asparagus, the cultivation of which had been brought to a high state of development many centuries before the Christian era, there is little opportunity for originality. All that the author has endeavored in this little volume has been to collect, arrange, classify, and systematize all obtainable facts, compare them with his own many years' experience in asparagus culture, and present his inferences in a plain and popular manner.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the introductory to Asparagus Culture. The Asparagus (Asparagus officinalis) belongs to the Lily family, and is a member of a large genus of plants, mostly natives of Africa, distinguished by fine small leaves, which make some of the kinds very graceful and elegant. The common kind is a native of sandy shores all round the basin of the Mediterranean, and grows along those of western Europe, till it reaches the western and south-western shores of England. It also grows on sandy plains in South Europe and North Africa. The flowers, which are small, are greenish-white, borne in twos or threes, and are succeeded by small, round, red berries, and the plant has a very elegant and feathery habit.
