New Market Carrots 
Carrot 
NEW MARKET 
A variety that is classed with the Inter¬ 
mediate types. It averages 8 inches in length, 
with a slightly blunt point and medium-heavy 
top. Flesh is exceptionally rich orange color, 
with small core. This makes a fine bunching 
Carrot for those who have good, deep, loose 
soil. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 15 cts.; 50 cts.; 
Ib. $1.75; 10 lbs. $16.50. 
RED INTERMEDIATE 
Commercial growers who demand a longer 
Carrot than Danvers are more than satisfied 
with this particular strain. The root grows 
about 8 inches long under ordinary conditions, 
is very smooth, and a sort of reddish color. 
The tops are not quite so heavy as the Chante- 
nay or Danvers but always produce enough 
foliage to make a good bunching Carrot. They 
make an attractive looking package topped and 
put in bushels. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 20 cts.; V^lh. 
45 cts.; lb. $1.50; 10 lbs. $15. 
RUBICON HALF-LONG. A stump-rooted variety 
somewhat longer than the Chantenay, with deep 
orange color. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 15 cts.; ^Alb. 30 cts.; 
lb. $1.10; 10 lbs. $10. 
ST. VALERY. The most desirable Carrot for home and 
fancy markets. It has 10-inch, smooth, pointed, 
dark orange-colored roots. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 15 cts.; 
Vilb. 30 cts.; lb. $1; 10 lbs. $9. 
Our supply of most of the special stocks which we are offering 
is usually exhausted before the planting season. It seems that 
the demand for well-rogued stocks is increasing every year. 
We urge our customers, therefore, to place their orders at once 
especially for those varieties which are most important, because 
of the impending difficulty to obtain good seed when the rush 
has begun. 
Winter King 
The best winter variety to store in trenches, and should be ready to market just after 
Christmas. It will produce exceedingly full-hearted, very green, stout stalks of unusually 
good keeping qualities. For those who figure on growing late Celery, we recommend this 
particular stock. Pkt. 10 cts. ; oz. 50 cts. ; y^lh. $1.75; lb. $6. 
FRENCH SUCCESS. This is one of the older 
styles of Celery, but is still very valuable for late 
or trenching purposes. The stalk is very large, 
with round, rather long ribs. This type is more 
green than most of the late varieties. The stock 
is very true and dependable. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 
50 cts.; V^lb. $1.75; lb. $6. 
MEISCH’S GREEN. Another easy-blanching va¬ 
riety, growing full-hearted stalks a trifle shorter 
than Easy-blanching, and of a beautiful light 
golden color when bleached. This seed was grown 
by us from the original stock and is absolutely 
true to type. The ribs of this variety are more 
round than those of the Easy-blanching. It can 
be bleached with paper, boards, or dirt for early 
use and is a good variety to store for winter use. 
Pkt. 25 cts.; oz. $2; i/^b. $7; lb. $25. 
COLUMBIA. Finest eating Celery to be had. The 
ribs are round, very solid, and it grows a very 
stout, light green stalk. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 50 cts.; 
lAlb. $1.75; lb. $6. 
MEYERS’ WHITE PLUME. Very early Celery. 
Ribs and leaves when bleached are white and it 
requires only a short time before it is ready for 
market. This is the first early Celery that was 
originated and still holds a high place among the 
early varieties. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 30 cts.; Vilb- $1; 
lb. $3. 
WINTER QUEEN. An old standard, late-keeping 
sort. Has very stout stalks of medium height 
which when blanched are very attractive creamy 
white in color, crisp and of fine flavor. Pkt. 10 cts.; 
oz. 35 cts.; y^lh. $1; lb. $3.
