HENDERSON'S TESTED SEEDS FOR MARKET GARDENERS. 



H*SS8£ HALF -LONG DANVERS CARROT 



A handsome, half-long cylindrical, stump-rooted Carrot of good size and of a rich, dark 

 orange color; it grows to a large size; is smooth, and the flesh very close in texture with 

 very little core. It is a first-class Carrot for all soils and has yielded 25 to 30 tons 

 per acre, with the smallest length of root of any now grown. It is more easily 

 harvested than the longer types and is excellent to store for winter, for stock or 

 table use. (See engraving.) Price, 10c. oz., 30c. J4 lb., $1.00 lb. 



CHANTENAY CARROT. 



This splendid Carrot belongs to the half-long "stump" 

 or blunt-rooted type, but differs from all others of this 

 class by its greater girth, bulk and consequent yield. It 

 averages 6 inches in length, is broad at the neck, 

 narrowing gradually to the round, blunt base, therefore 

 is easily harvested. The flesh, almost free from core, 

 is of rich orange-red and of the finest table quality; 

 fine-grained, tender, juicy and delicately flavored. 

 Chantenay Carrot is an excellent variety for use either 

 for an early crop or a main crop. In the latitude of 

 New York sow as early as possible for early carrots, certain- 

 ly not later than the end of April, so that the roots will 

 mature before July. The roots of course are best when used 

 young. For a main crop sow Chantenay from June 1st to 

 June 20th. Carrots split and grow rooty if checked in 

 growth. This may be avoided by watering when dry, and 

 by an occasional application of liquid manure. 



Price, 10c. oz., 30c. \i lb., $1.00 lb. 



improved LONG ORANGE CARROT. 



An improved strain of this popular variety for either garden 

 or field culture, roots averaging 12 inches in length and 3 inches 

 in diameter at the top; an enormous yielder and a good keeper. 

 The strain we offer is the result of painstaking selection — spread 

 over a period of years — of the most highly colored and the most 

 perfectly shaped roots of the old variety of Long Orange. 



The old variety was justly esteemed for stock feeding pur- 

 poses but Improved Long Orange is highly desirable for table 

 use, the flavor being extremely good, and the flesh tender. 



Price, 10c. oz., 30c. H lb., $1.00 lb. 



GOLDEN SELF. BLANCHING CELEKY. 



THE STANDARD EARLY YELLOW SORT. 



This variety is still the most popular self-blanching sort. It is 

 grown in enormous quantities and over so wide an area that it is 

 on sale almost every day of the year in all the large eastern 

 markets. We supply market gardeners all over the country and 

 our stock has given universal satisfaction as the testimonials 

 printed below will indicate. It is very scarce again this season, 

 but, notwithstanding its high price, our customers will find our 

 seed cheaper in the end than low priced stocks. (See engraving.) 



Price, 85c. oz., $3.20 y± lb., $12.00 lb. 



You may be interested to know that in our whole IQ15 crop of fifteen carloads taken 

 from ten acres of land we were not able to find enough sports, seeders or hollow stalks 

 to fill one crate, and that the fields had not been rouged during the Summer. We 

 would be most pleased if you could furnish us with seed from the same lot that our 

 last year's order was taken from. WHITE, WARE &* WHITE, Balavia, N. Y. 

 My neighbor on market begs me to get for him the same Celery seed (Golden Self 

 Blanching) I had last year. It is true my Celery was the best on market last year. 



ADOLF KNOCK. Lockland, Ohio. 

 The Golden Self Blanching Celery I got from you last fall was the best I ever had. 

 T. DRENTH, Route 1, Ridgewood, N. J. 

 We have had good success with your Golden Self Blanching Celery last year. All 

 the seeds we had from you were very satisfactory. 



G. T. LOGAN, Box 628, Reno, Nevada.
