CELERY— EASY BLANCHING 



EARLY FORTUNE 

 CUCUMBER 



A splendid selection of "White Spine," bearing large 

 numbers of handsome, uniform fruits, cylindrical in shape, 

 with very dark green skin and thick flesh, tender and 

 crisp. Pkt., 10 cts.: oz., 20 cts.; J lb., 50 cts.; lb., SI. 75. 



DREER'S ALL-HEART 

 LETTUCE 



The name is truly descriptive, because the few loose 

 outer leaves cause the heads to be almost entirely solid 

 hearts. Now thoroughly tested in all soils and sections, 

 we have yet to hear of an instance where Dreer's All- 

 Heart Lettuce did not come through with flying colors. 

 While suitable for summer use in cool sections, it is 

 pre-eminently an early spring variety and gives best re- 

 sults in soils holding an abundance of humus or other 

 quickly available plant food. 



The heads are of delicate yellowish-green color, 

 making it most attractive. The flavor is excellent and 

 in crispness it surpasses the majority of other butterheads. 

 Pkt., 10 cts.; J oz., 40 cts.; oz., 75 cts.; \ lb., S2.00. 



AVON EARLY TOMATO 



After repeated trials, we have come to the conclusion 

 that Avon Early is several days ahead of the earliest 

 strain of Spark's Earliana, considered the standard for 

 earliness throughout the country. Moreover, we find 

 this variety to be more uniformly deep through from 

 stem to blossom end and the uniformly large size of 

 the fruit is maintained throughout the season. Well 

 grown Avon Early fruits average 3 to the pound. They 

 are about 3j inches in diameter the broad way and 

 three inches deep. The skin is always smooth, both 

 skin and flesh of deep, scarlet red color. We know of no 

 other extra early sort equalling Avon Early in solidity, 

 due to exceedingly small seed cavities. Pkt., 20 cts.; 

 i oz., 65 cts.; oz., $1.00; i lb., $3.50. 



One of the earliest varieties to become ready to use, and yet a suf- 

 ficiently good keeper to prove useful during the early winter months. 

 Easy Blanching makes a quick, strong growth, is of compact, upright 

 habit, making the process of blanching very easy. The stalks are thick, 

 very brittle, devoid of stringy fibre, and a rich, nutty flavor. Pkt., 20 

 cts.; J oz., 85 cts.; oz., $1.50; i lb., $4.50. 



EARLY WONDER BEET 



An extra early variety of recent introduction. Globe shaped and 

 very uniform in size, skin smooth, and flesh a deep blood red and extremely 

 tender. It is admirably .suited to the home garden and also on account 

 of its earliness and super-fine quality, valuable to the Market Gardener. 

 Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 25 cts.; i lb., 75 cts.; lb., $2.00. 



CHANTENAY CARROT 



Grown for market as well as home use. It is stump-rooted and slightly 

 tapered towards the bottom and the skin is very smooth, orange-red 

 in color, causing it to be of very attractive appearance. The quality 

 is most excellent, being very crisp, tender and of an extra fine flavor. 

 Roots, when ready, average about 5 or 6 inches long. But they may 

 be used while yet quite small, thus furnishing a continuous supply. 

 Unexcelled quality, size and appearance. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 20 cts.; 

 ilb.. 50 cts.; lb., $1.50. 



KEENEY'S STRINGLESS GREEN 

 REFUGEE BEAN 



A decided improvement over the old Thousand-to-one Refugee which 

 was somewhat stringy. The plants grow to large size and are very 

 productive. The pod is round, average five inches long, are slightly 

 curved, light green in color, very brittle and of good quality. Pkt., 10 

 cts., postpaid, i lb., 20 cts.; lb., 35 cts.; 2 lbs., 60 cts.; 10 lbs., $2.50. 



GOLDEN PLUME CELERY 



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. Pkt., 40 cts.; J oz., $2.50; 

 i oz., $4.50; oz., $8.50. 



The modem t^^pe of Tomato is way ahead in every way of the old 

 "Love Apple." A good fruit of Avon Early.
