HENDERSON'S SUPERIOR SEEDS FOR MARKET GARDENERS. 



Golden Self-Blanching Celery. 



THE STANDARD EARLY YELLOW SORT. 



Henderson's Pocahontas Sweet Corn 



This variety originated in France, and-the best stocks are still produced 

 there. It is very scarce again this season, but, notwithstanding its high 

 price, our customers will find it cheaper in the end than low priced stocks. 

 {See cut.) Price, 15c. pkt., $1.40 oz., $5.25 ^ lb., $20.00 lb. 



TO PROVE THE SUPERIORITY AND GENERAL EXCELLENCE 

 OF OUR STOCKS, WE QUOTE THE FOLLOWING TESTIMONIALS. 



//. M. Frazee, Manatee, Fla., "Your strain of Golden Self-Blanching Celery has proven 

 superior to all others for the last five years"; Paul Seyfert, Bradentown, Fla., "I had 10 lbs. of 

 your Golden Self-Blanching Celery last year and U produced better Celery than any other 

 raised around here": .Aaron R. Niles, Wellsboro, Pa., "Your stock of French grown Golden 

 Self-Blanching Celery was unusually fine" ; John A. Knowles, Hartville, Ohio, "Your Golden 

 Self-Blanching Celery can't be beat". 



One of the worst evils in this variety is a tendency to develop hollow 

 pithy stalks. How thoroughly we have rid our stocks of this evil may be 

 judged from extracts from letters printed below: 



Brouwer & Son, -Danville, N. J., "Your Golden Self-Blanching Celery is more solid than 

 anyone elses"; R. J. Dallinger, Akron, Ohio, "I used your Golden Self-Blanching Celery last 

 year and found the crop free from hollow stalks, while my neighbors who used seed from other 

 sources lost nearly their entire crop"; Carl A. Baumeister, Sanford, Fla., "I secured a small 

 quantity of your seed from M. S. O. Chase, and out of 355 crates of fine Celery I have cut only 

 one hollow stalk, while some people have had one-third of their crop to throw out"; 



Read what our customers say about the purity of our stocks. None is 

 superior in this respect: 



W. H. McCarthy, Saratoga Springs, N. Y., says, "/ must say your Golden Self-Blanching 

 Celery is the finest strain I ever had, I do not think there is a plant in the whole lot that is 

 not true to name"; F. J. Lovell, Hornellsville, N. Y., "I 

 had the clearest field of Golden Self-Blanching Celery 

 this lost season I ever saw, scarcely a green plant in seven 

 acres".
