EVERYTHING FOR THE GARDEN— Implements 



The Ball Lightning Celery Handler 



When putting on the paper bleaching tubes, the operation is made easier 

 by using the Ball Lightning Celery Handler. This is a spring brass imple- 

 ment which gathers up the foliage so that the bleaching tubes can be placed 

 without damage to the plant. This operation is demonstrated in picture. 

 Price. Brass. $5.00; Tin, $2 50. Packed weighty lbs. _^____

The Ball Celery 

 BleachingTubes 



The Ball Celery 

 Bleaching Tubes 

 are made of heavy 

 paper, water- 

 proofed and with 

 care may be used 

 over and over again 

 for several years. 

 The plant is drawn 

 together and the 

 tube slipped over 

 it. The celery 

 should be nearly 

 full grown before 



Eutting on our bleaching tubes. At this time, with plenty of moisture, 

 eart growth is very rapid, and celery will often be in prime condition in 

 from 8 to 14 days. 



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

 banking with soil; they will prevent dirt from entering the heart of the plant. 

 The result, sanitary 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 6^J 

 x 13 for large stalks.
