 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. 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. Price, oz. 90c, J 4 lb. $3.25, lb. $12.00. 



These grow quickly, blanch easily, and are 

 especially adapted for fall and early winter use. 



HENDERSON'S SELECTED 



Golden Plume 

 Celery 



Produces More Marketable Celery than 



any other Strain, And is in Demand 



in Every Market 



With the introduction of Henderson's Easy 

 Blanching Celery in 1914, we had the satisfaction 

 of placing before the American public a superior 

 medium early celery, that up to this period has not 

 been excelled, and in Henderson's selected Golden 

 Plume, we have the pleasure of offering to our 

 friends the grandest, earljr golden celery that 

 America has ever known. 



Among the reports received by us from growers 

 to whom we sent samples of this new variety for 

 trial one says: "it is a glorified and perfected celery 

 of the Golden Self Blanching type, but far superior 

 to that old variety." Another one Mr. Ben Man- 

 ning, of Ridgewood, N. J., said, "I grew Henderson's 

 Golden Plume Celery alongside of samples received 

 from five other sources. Henderson's produced 

 13H> crates on a row 300 feet long and netted a 

 return of $46.70. The others averaged 11 crates to 

 the row and netted $39.00." 



Henderson's Golden Plume Celery is absolutely 

 the earliest maturing celery grown. It is large, 

 vigorous, and appears to be immune to blight and 

 rust. We highly recommend it to the market 

 gardener for its attractive appearance, which when 

 fully matured is most inviting; the foliage is creamy 

 yellow, and the stalks creamy white, becoming 

 almost white at the base and it has a large full- 

 plumed center desired by consumers. It is brittle, 

 tender and deliciously flavored. 



It's earliness, vigor, freedom from disease,, large 

 size, attractive appearance, and high quality, 

 promises to market growers a very profitable return.. 

 Price, oz. $2.25, K lb. $7.00, lb. $25.00.

blanching is a "sport" from the famous Golden Self-blanching, 

 from which it inherits its peculiarly robust habit. At the same 

 time, it has the perfect whiteness of the old White Plume, a' most 

 desirable blend of the essential qualities of a Self-blanching 

 Celery. The quality -is excellent, and it can be used fully one 

 month earlier than the slow-blanching sorts. Price, oz. 55c, 

 \i lb. $1.50, lb. $5.00. 



The consumer demand is growing daily for Henderson's Golden Plume on account of its appetizing flavor and beautiful appearance.
