Golden Self Blanching 
CELERY 
WHITE PLUME. Stalks, portions of the inner leaves 
and heart naturally white, and become fit for use 
by simply tying up closely with twine. More used 
than any. Pkt., 10c, oz., 30c; Yt lb., SI. 00; lb., $3.00. 
GOLDEN SELF-BLANCHING. By far the most pop- 
ular sort; of medium earliness and dwarf, compact 
habit, with thick, solid, heavily ribbed stalks which 
blanch easily to a clear, waxen yellow. Grown in 
rich, moist soil, the stalks are numerous and large, 
with a solid heart of beautiful yellow. Pkt., 25c; oz., 
$1.25; Ya lb., $4.00; lb., $15.00. 
CUCUMBERS 
Cucumbers like warm, sandy loam, and should be 
sown when all danger of frost is over. For pickles 
only, sow about June 1st. The hills should be about 
four feet apart each way. Sow thickly about one- 
half inch deep and later thin out to about four 
plants to a hill. One ounce will seed over fifty hills. 
DAVIS PERFECT. Dark, glossy, green, slim and 
symmetrical, with an average length of 10 to 12 
inches. When ripe they turn white without yellow. 
Quality fine, as seeds are very soft when fit for table 
use. Very tender, brittle and of exceptional flavor. 
Pkt., 5c; oz., 20c; % lb., 70c; lb., $2.00. 
EARLIEST OF ALL. An extra early, prolific white 
spine type. A good shipper, not very long, but good 
shape and a deep green color, but will not hold it so 
well. It is good because of is earliness. Pkt., 5c; 
oz., 20c; Yi lb., 60c; lb., $2.00. 
EARLY FORTUNE. It is extremely early, very pro- 
ductive and always brings its money in the early 
market. One of its best features is its disease re- 
sistance and wonderful shipping qualities. The color 
is a rich dark green which does not fade when ship- 
ped a long distance. The fruit averages nine inches 
long, slightly tapering. Pkt., 10c; oz., 20c; Yt lb.,
