NOVELTIES AND SPECIALTIES 
Celery TrUc Builder 
CELERY TRADE BUILDER 
TENDER—BRITTLE—STRINGLESS 
Plant quite dwarf and stocky, heart large and full, 
creamy yellow. Stalks broad, thick and meaty, crisp, very 
tender and so brittle that it will not stand distant shipping. 
It stands alone in quality, which is wonderful in the full 
meaning of the word. This is a celery that will appeal to 
the fancy class of buyers and will fetch fancy prices. It will 
advertise you as a skillful gardener and producer of a per¬ 
fect product. Trade Builder is very much different in qual¬ 
ity from other celeries and as such will meet with an en¬ 
thusiastic welcome from the critical consumer. Grow Trade 
Builder for your local market. You will sell it easily with a 
pleasing profit at any time, in spite of the severest competi¬ 
tion. Trade Builder is in a class by itself, is so far superior 
in quality and appearance that no other celery can compete 
with it. Almost as early as Golden Self Blanching, a won¬ 
derful keeper and high class as a winter sort. Pkt. 10c; 
H oz. 15c; oz. 60c; % lb. $1.50; 1 lbs. $6.00. 
MUSKMELON GOLDEN QUEEN 
Originated with one of the melon growers in our locality. 
This grower made quite a bit of money selling his melons 
when the times were not as tough as they are at present at 
60c per melon never for less and many a melon went for 75c 
and as high as a dollar a piece for the biggest ones. In spite 
of his being there when it comes to charging, his customers 
were on the lookout for his melons. Golden Queen is a large 
melon of high quality averaging 15 pounds per fruit, heavily 
ribbed and heavily netted, outsells any other melon on the 
market and is ready for the market three days ahead of Hale’s 
Best. This may sound like a fairy tale yet these are the facts. 
Not suitable for shipping. Pkt. 10c; oz. 35c; lb. $2.40. 
Our Watermelon and Muskmelon Seed is saved from selected 
band cut melons from unusually pure and true stocks to begin with. 
Our fields are rigidly rogued for freedom from diseases and purity 
of strain. Our seed costs no more than seed that may be and may 
not be as good as ours. We will be glad to quote lowest prices # to 
those interested in high quality and in the market for large quantities 
of seed. 
Lettuce White Boston 
LETTUCE WHITE BOSTON 
SURE HEADING—BIG AND SOLID 
OUTSTANDING SUPERIOR QUALITY SORT 
A great improvement over the Big Boston in that it is 
lighter green in color, free from red tinge, therefore more 
attractive, very free from bottom rot, tip burn and that it 
grows higher off the ground than Big Boston. Does not 
scald in hot weather or turn red from cold, and produces 
very close to 100% of solid, large, compact, crisp and tender 
heads, very white inside. Originated in New Jersey and be¬ 
coming the favorite with the growers upon first trial. Unbeat¬ 
able for forcing as well as for spring and fall planting in the 
open ground. Pkt. 10c; oz. 25c; % lb. 50c; lb. $2.00. 
MUSTARD BAKTOY 
Different from other mustards and. of all “greens” the king. 
Resembles an immense head of lettuce, but the leaves have very 
prominent midribs, exceedingly tender and juicy. The hearts are 
most excellent to be eaten raw either as celery or with salad dressing 
as a salad proper. Boiled or stewed no other greens quite equal it 
in tenderness and exquisite flavor. The whole plant is remarkably 
succulent, crisp and tender. All who have tried Baktoy are hearty 
in their praises of its flavor and high quality. Of quick growth, can 
be sowed in the spring, and again for a fall crop. Baktoy will stand 
nearly six weeks and all this time will remain in prime condition 
and shoots to seed only when the weather is quite dry and hot. 
Baktoy will be popular upon first trial and should appeal to growers 
who cater to a special trade where quality is appreciated. Pkt. 5c; 
oz. 10c; Vi lb. 20c; 1 lb. 80c.
