BRUSSELS SPROUTS 
A variety of Cabbage producing small heads or 
knobs along the stem. Very popular in some markets. 
Culture — Much the same as Cabbage. Excessive 
stem growth should be avoided by planting in good but 
not extra rich soil. Sow seed in April in the open ground 
and set in rows 3 feet apart, 18 inches apart in row. 
Sowing in June will produce a late autumn crop of 
sprouts. Break leaves from stem to aid formation of 
heads. One ounce of seed yield 4500 plants. 
Improved Roseberry. Ounce, 15 cents. 
COLLARDS 
Of particular value in the South. The Collard forms 
a mass of leaves on a tall stem. Improved in flavor by 
frost. 
CULTURE — Sow like Cabbage. Transplant when a 
few weeks old. Set a foot apart in rows. Cultivate fre- 
quently. Sow seed in June, July and August. One 
ounce of seed will give 4000 plants. 
Georgia, or Southern. Blue stem. Ounce* 10 cents. 
14 pound, 20 cents.

CELERY 
Sow in shallow drills in 
the open border during April, 
in rich, mellow soil. Press 
the seed in, instead of cover- 
ing, and water freely, shading 
from strong sunshine. Pre- 
pare trenches two to four 
feet apart, a foot wide and 
a foot deep, dig into the 
bottom plenty of well-rotted 
manure, and set the plants 
when three or four inches 
high, about six inches apart 
in the trenches. Keep shaded 
until well started and gradu- 
ally earth up as they grow. 
Cut the tops off once or twice 
before transplanting to make 
them “stocky” and cut off 
lower half of root before set- 
ting out. 
White Plume. The most desirable variety for 
either home or market use. It self-blanches beautifully, 
the stalks are crisp, succulent and of delicious flavor, 
and no variety makes as handsome an appearance on 
the table. Ounce, 20 cents. 
Giant Pascal. One of the most popular Celeries in 
our list. Easily blanched; a fine keeping sort, of ex- 
cellent flavor. Has large, thick, solid stalks, beautiful 
golden heart, and blanches quickly. Of splendid keep- 
ing qualities, and is one of the best for winter use. 
Ounce, 15 cents. 
Golden Self-Blanching. A very desirable sort. 
Ounce, 25 cents. 
Celeriac, or Turnip. Rooted Celery. Grown exclus- 
ively for its roots, which, when cooked, sliced and used 
with vinegar, make a fine salad. 
Giant Prague. The best of the Turnip-rooted Cel- 
eries; large and smooth roots; an excellent keeper. 
Ounce, 20 cents. 
EGG PLANT 
Sow in hot bed very 
early in the spring and 
transplant to very rich, 
warm ground, setting 
them two or three feet 
apart. Hoe frequently 
and hill up gradually 
until they blossom. Egg- 
plant seed will not vege- 
tate freely without a 
strong, uniform heat, and 
if the plants get the least 
chilled they seldom re- 
cover from the shock. 
Improved New York Spineless. The standard va- 
riety everywhere. The eggs come early, are of large 
size, regular oval shape and a fine deep purple in color. 
Ounce, 25 cents. 
Early Long Purple. The earliest kind. Ounce, 20 
cents. 
Black Beauty. New. Ounce, 35 cents. 
Special Prices for Larger Quantities. 
Sow the seed thickly in good rich loam, in shallow 
drills early in the spring and at intervals for succession, 
as it soon runs to seed. 
Curled, or Pepper Grass. The most desirable sort. 
Handsome. Ounce, 10 cents. (4 pound, 15 cents. 
Grey Seeded Winter. Ounce, 10 cents. 14 pound, 
20 cents. 
True Water. Ounce, 30 cents. 
CORN SALAD 
A good substitute for Lettuce during the winter 
months. Sow seed during cool, moist weather in the 
fall or early in spring in rows nine to twelve inches 
apart. Cover with straw in winter. Ounce, 10 cents. 
14 pound, 15 cents. 
ENDIVE 
One of the best salads for fall and winter. Sow seed 
thinly, in drills, in April, for early use and in June and 
July for late. Thin or transplant to one foot apart in 
the row. When nearly grown gather the leaves together 
and tie with yarn to blanch the inner portion. They 
must be dry when tied or they will rot. They will blanch 
in about four weeks. 
Green Curled. Ornamental curled leaves of dark 
green, which blanch white and crisp. Ounce, 10 cents. 
14 pound, 30 cents.

Broad-Leaved Escarolle. Used for soups and stews.

KALE 
Kale is much more hardy than Cabbage and makes 
excellent greens for winter and spring use. Sow from 
May to July and cultivate the same as Cabbage. For 
early spring use sow in September and protect during 
winter.

KOHL=RABI 
Cultivation same as for 
Cabbage, taking care to set 
the plants no deeper than 
they stood in the seed-bed, 
and, in hoeing, not to heap 
too much earth about them. 
Keep weeds down and when 
the thickened stems above 
ground are two or three 
inches in diameter they 
should be used at once, as 
they get tough with age.
