Celery, - Continued -

 light yellow, making it exceedingly showy and desirable

Celeriac. - Kno11 Zeile » e - 



One ounce will produce about 2,000 plants. Produces turnip- 

 shaped roots which may be cooked and sliced and used with vinegar, 

 making a most excellent salad. 



Celeriac, Large Smooth Prague. 



Culture.— Sow the seed at the same season and give the same 

 treatment as common celery. Transplant the young plants to moist, 

 rich soil, in rows two feet apart, and six inches apart in the row. Give 

 thorough culture. As the roots are the edible portion of this vege- 

 table, it is not necessary to earth up or "handle" it. After the roots 

 have attained a diameter of two inches or over they will be fit for use. 

 To keep through winter, pack in damp earth or sand and put in the 

 cellar, or leave out of doors, covering with earth and straw, like beets 

 or carrots. 



Large, Smooth Prague. — An improved form of turnip- 

 rooted celery, producing large and smooth roots, which are 

 almost round, and with very few side roots. Plants vigor- 

 ous, with large deep green foliage. Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c, 

 %\b., 40c; lb., $1.25.

Sprinkle seed freely along shallow drills one foot apart, 

 at intervals, through spring and summer, as desired. 

 Curled Garden. Oz., 10c 



Water Cress. - Wasserkresse - 



It is easily grown by planting along the margins of ponds 

 and streams, where it increases both by spreading of the 

 roots and by seeding. Pkt., 10c; oz., 20c; % lb., 75c 



Brussels Sprouts. 



Improved Half Dwarf. — The plants, which are very 

 hardy, grow two to three feet 

 high, and produce from the sides 

 of the stalk numerous little 

 sprouts which resemble very 

 small cabbages, one or two-inch 

 in diameter. The leaves should 

 be broken down in the fall to 

 give the little heads more room to grow. 

 They should be treated in all respects like 

 winter cabbage or kale. We offer a care- 

 fully grown strain, very hardy, and giv- 

 ing compact, round Sprouts of large size 

 and good quality. Pkt., 5c. oz., 15c; 

 Xlb., 40c, lb., $1.50. 



DflfQ Pnlo Hardy Winter. This variety 



OultJ llljltji is grown and treated like cab- 

 bage. The plant attains a 

 height of 18 inches, with an abund- 

 ance of beautiful light-green leaves 

 which are densely curled and crimp- 

 ed. Besides being very hardy it 

 possesses the advantage of all other 

 varieties in forcing a second crop of 

 moss-curled leaves as soon as the 

 Brussels Sprouts. first ones are cut or have fallen off. 



This new growth of second crop of Sprouts is of finest quality and is 

 ready for market during the winter and early spring months, when it 

 demands fancy prices. Oz., 15c; 1/4 lb., 35c; lb., $1.25.

A word from a feiv of the thoicsands of satisfied customers: 



It affords me great pleasure to offer you a sample stalk 

 celery grown from your seed ( Winter Queen), it measures 

 28-inch and tipped the scale at 21 oz.; this is a fair average 

 of my crops. All the seeds I bought of you are fully as good 

 as they have been in the past and my crops have done and 

 are doing fine.

Gentlemen: — 



Your celery seed is beyond a doubt the finest 

 that can be had, my crop is making me more money than 

 any other crop during the season. 



Respectfully,
