The BALL CELERY BLEACHING TUBES 



Just the Thing for Quickly and Easily Blanching Early Celery 

 The Ball Celery Bleaching Tubes are made of heavy paper, waterproofed and 

 with care may be used over and over again for several years. The plant is drawn 

 together and the tube slipped over it (if the Spring. Brass Celery Handler is also 

 used it facilitates the operation); all light is then excluded and the celery blanches 

 beautifully in from 10 to 15 days' time. Celery blanched with tubes is sweeter 

 and cleaner than that blanched by banking, for there is no earthy flavor as with 

 the latter, and besides, celery may be had for the table very much earlier, as the 

 tubes may be placed over the plants any time the celery is large enough, even in 

 hot, moist weather. The. free circulation of air around the plant inside the tube 

 allows it to dry out quickly after a rain. Place 12 or 15 tubes over as many plants, 

 and in a week or 10 days later tube another lot cf plants, then as the tubes are 

 removed from the first lot they are placed over other celery plants. The celery 

 should be nearly full gro\\'n before putting on our bleaching tubes. At this time, 

 with plenty of moisture, heart growth is very rapid, and celery will often be in 

 prime condition in from 8 to 14 daj-s. 



For the late or winter crops these bleachers can be put on just before banking 

 with soil; they vdll prevent dirt from entering the heart of the plant. The result, 

 Banitary cleanliness, more than repays the cost, especially for private use. 



The 6 X 12 size is usually used on medium or average size celery; the 6J^2 ^ 13 

 for large stalks. The 7 x 14 is best for very big celery, especially the "green 

 varieties. The bleachers should hug the celery close, but not tight. If an un- 

 usually large plant is encountered, trim off a few leaves.

El-Flo Continuous Heating 

 Capping Steel

 by improperly heated tools is attributed the greater per cent of

 ping steel \^'ill insure you against chance. Five cents worth 

 of gasoline will run the "El-Flo" Heater a whole day — sealing 

 more than 1,000 cans — limited only by the speed of the operator.

 any "tinning" or "fluxing." Perfectly safe and simple; as easily 

 perated as a lamp. No experience needed to do perfect and 

 seaUng from the start. Three styles and made in all sizes, 

 l?s. 2;i, 2'i. The heat is appUed on either side, top oi

PLANT PROTECTORS 



A framework of wood, covered with muslin 

 % drawn to a knob at the top to be used as a 

 ■ handle. The uprights project below the bottom 

 bow and thrust into the ground, prevent the 

 protectors from being displaced by the wind. 

 These legs also permit the protectors to be 

 I u-,ed and held lightly above the ground when 

 1 iter ventilation is desirable. They are 

 iped to nest into one another, for storage and 

 ipment, and will last for years with good care. 

 r advancing the growth of tender plants and 

 tocting them from frosts, these Plant Pro- 

 tors will be found very useful, also for shad- 

 mg lettuce and spinach during hot weather, 

 which are apt to bolt to seed.
