Good Seed, Full Weight and a Fair Price. 21 
Henderson's New Rose — The best of the red celeries which 
are becoming more popular and justly so, for they are more

also the iinest flavored. Let those who are lovers of fine celery 
give this a trial. Per packet, 15 cents ; oz., 50 cents. 
Dwarf Golden Heart— A half dwarf variety of recent origin,, 
The heart when blanched, is full and solid, of a waxy or golden 
color ; most excellent flavor, and one of the best winter keep- 
ers. More largely grown for market than any other variety. 
Per packet, 10 cents ; oz., 25 cents ; lb., $2.75. 
Crawford's Half Dwarf— This variety has great vigor of 
growth, equaling the large growing sorts in weight of bunch. 
When blanched it is yellowish white, solid, and possessing the- 
nuttv flavor peculiar to the dwarf kinds. Per packet, 10 cents ; 
oz., 25 cents ; lb., $2.50. 
Boston Market— An old variety and a favorite with many 
growers ; somewhat branching and rather low growth ; flavor

CORF. 
My crops of Sweet Corn the past season were very good, and E 
succeeded in curing them in fine condition. The most profita- 
ble Sweet Corn t~> grow for marketing green, is the early and 
the late. Sto well's Evergreen is the variety usually grown for 
canning but I prefer Russell's Prolific for market, as it is earlier 
and nearly as large. Sweet Corn should not be planted until the 
ground is warm, as it is more liable to rot than the common field 
corn, though the early corn is quite hardy and may be planted 
earlier than the later sorts. To have a succession, plant in this, 
latitude every two weeks from the middle of May till July. 
Further south the planting may be done earlier and continued 
later.
