B?^k a c^ s R own NEW VICTORY CELERY 



< •> THE VERY BEST U/INTER CELERY. 



81. An excellent winter Celery. We have grown this seed in America for several years and find by careful experiments it loses some of its 

 solidity ; while seed we have grown in France remains as solid as the finest stock of French Golden Self-Blanching Celery. As a result we have 

 grown our entire supply for this season in France and we can recommend it to you as a most solid and most profitable winter celery. Our French 

 grower, carefully selects by hand each individual plant in transplanting and only the absolutely solid plants are retained, the rest are thrown 

 away. Again when he puts the full grown plants in Kilns for Winter, each individual plant is gone over and only the absolutely solid are put in 

 the Kilns. Again in the Spring before putting the plants in the bed where the celery is to go to seed only the absolutely solid plants are used. 

 We are sure our stock of French Grown "New Victory" Celery is one of the Best Winter Celeries on Earth. It has a great amount of heart, is 

 heavier, stouter, and thicker than many of its rivals. It is the most economical Celery yet introduced, every particle being solid, crisp; and of a 

 delicious flavor. Its beautiful, large, golden heart and compact growth make an ornament hard to surpass. It is a remarkable keeper, main- 

 taining its firmness as late as May. Critical market gardeners pronounce it to be of the finest quality, best keeper and most salable Celery 

 they have ever raised. It is ready for market by December. PKts. 5c and 10c. Oz. 25c. 1/4 Lb. $1.00. 1/2 Lb. $1.75. Lb. $3.50. 

 Messrs. J. Bolgiano & Son, Baltimore, Md. December 10th, 1906. 



Gentlemen. — Your Bolgiano's New Victory French Grown Celery Seed is the best I have ever used, and I have been a Celery grower for 20 

 years. I shall order most of my seed from you this year. Hoping to hear from you soon, I remain. 



Yours truly, M. E. DUDLEY, Erie County, Pa. 



76. For home gardens and nearby markets, Bolgiano's New Celery "SWEETNUT" is the most delicious, sweet, nutty, crisp celery that has 

 ever been offered to the public. ''Sweetnut" Celery has been developed by one of our most careful French Growers for many years. The most 

 rigid selection had to be made to get this strain thoroughly fixed but this season we are delighted to say after two years of exhaustive testing 

 in our Test Gardens we can offer our friends and customers a Celery that is surpassingly delicious. It is absolutely solid, a most excellent winter 

 keeper, of vigorous, sturdy growth, making fine large solid stalks, with a large, full creamy-yellow heart. It is necessary to blanch it by earth- 

 ing up or storing it for the winter. It blanches to a beautiful creamy-yellow, when the stalks are extremely brittle, entirely stringless and 

 exceptionally crisp. On account of its great brittleness it should not be shipped long distances but of course for home use and nearby markets 

 its brittleness is one of its most desirable features. We recommend this Celery to our customers who enjoy the most delicious things the garden 

 affords. Our supply is yet very limited but we want everyone to give it a trial this year. PKt. 10c. Oz. 35c. 1/2 Lb. $1.00,
