THE BEST CELERY KNOWN! 
“ Golden Self Blanching.” 
Earliest, Handsomest , Most Productive , Best 
Flavored, Tender and Juicy. 
Some four years ago a novelty in celery 
was introduced into this country as NEW 
GOLDEN SELF-BLANCHING. No other 
variety of celery ever introduced, not except- 
ing the White Plume, has made such furor 
among celery growers, and created such a 
demand for seeds and plants where once tried 
as has this new candidate. While growing 
in the field, the foliage of this variety is not 
as light colored as is White Plume, but it is 
a much stronger grower and its self-blanch- 
ing qualities are fully equal to those of that 
now well known sort. All celery, to make a 
good growth must be “handled” or banked 
sufficiently to keep the stalks growing up- 
right, and that is all that is necessary with 
this fine variety. At the approach of cold 
weather dig and pack it away in a cellar and 
it can soon be brought forth the most beauti- 
ful in appearance and finest in real table 
quality that can be imagined. The central 
stocks are very large and strong in appear- 
auce. but extremely tender and delicious in 
flavor. Price 10 cts. per packet, 40 cts. per 
ounce. 
UPLAND CRESS. 
This has recently been introduced as a new 
vegetable by Mr. Beyer, of Iowa. It is grown 
as spinach, and used exactly as water cress. In 
fact, it so much resembles water cress in taste 
that the difference is scarcely discernable, and 
the wonder is that its use has not become more 
generally adopted, as it is of as easy culture as 
spinach, indeed easier, for it is a perennial 
plant, and can be grown easily for two years 
without resowing, and it yields enormous crops. 
The seed should be sown in April (latitude of 
New York), in rows 12 to 15 inches apart. (See 
cut). Price, 15 cts. per packet, $1 per ounce.

weather is at all favorable, the great bulk of the crop can be gathered at any time miring a period of four 
weeks, and be found in fit condition for table use. It almost always yields two ears to the stalk, lneoouis 
snowy white, compactly covered with large and very long grains. It is not an old variety under a nep name, 
but is remarkably distinct and handsome in appearance. It has no rival in sweetness and delicacy of flavor. 
Judging from the fiavorable reports, it is bound to have a great run the coming season. Price per pkt. 10 cts. , 
per 1-2 pint 25 cts., per pint 40 cts., per quart 65 cts.
