CAULIFLOWER 
We recommend our Snowball Cauliflower as the 
best there is. 
Snowball. Earliest maturing strain of short-leaved 
type. It is well adapted for forcing or Winter use 
and is one of the most popular of all sorts, both 
for the market gardener and home use. Our 
strain of this selected Denmark grown seed can 
be relied upon as one of the most satisfactory 
of all. Pkt. 25c., oz. $2.00. 
Extra Early Dwarf Erfurt. Similar in general 
characteristics to Snowball, but not quite so early 
and somewhat larger in growth. Pkt. 25c., 
oz. $2.00. 
CARROTS 
Pkt. 10c., oz. 15c., lb. 40c., lb. $1.25 
Chantenay. This splendid Carrot belongs to the 
half-long, stump-rooted type, with good girth 
and consequently makes a heavy tonnage yield, 
and also a beautiful-shaped Carrot for bunching 
at any time after it has made half its growth. 
We recommend it above all others as a bunching 
Carrot. The color is a rich orange red. 
Coreless. Fine sweet tender Carrot. Popular with 
both market and private gardeners. Roots are 
half long, stump ending and coreless. The top 
is rather small. We recommend a trial for this 
Carrot. 
Selected Danvers. A fine stock of the old popular 
sort. Bred to an even size and fine color. 
Early Short Horn. One of the very earliest va¬ 
rieties. While the roots do not grow large, they 
are almost globe-shaped and are reddish orange in 
color. This variety is splendid for forcing under 
glass. 
Improved Long Orange. A long, pointed variety. 
Heavy yielder and a good stock Carrot 
CELERY 
Oz. 50c., yi lb. $1.50 
Wonderful. The finest yellow Celery ever intro¬ 
duced. Our stock of Wonderful has no soft stalks, 
is high germination and proven seed that was 
tested last year. We advise all Celery growers to 
try this stock liberally. 
Easy Blanching. (Sanford Superb). This is a 
valuable and comparatively new variety which 
follows about two weeks later than Golden Self 
Blanching. It grows well on both muck and up¬ 
land, has splendid keeping qualities, and is not 
as susceptible to blights as some other sorts. We 
have a very choice strain of Easy Blanching and 
recommend it highly. 
Paris Golden Self Blanching. Plants are stocky 
and full hearted, making a vigorous growth, and 
is easily bleached. It is considered a good storage 
Celery. Our stock is the old original strain, as 
first introduced in France. If you want a quality 
Paris Golden, we believe we have it. 
Giant Pascal (Frost Strain). This is the finest 
eating green Celery known. Crisp, brittle, free 
from strings and has that nutty flavor which 
makes every bite taste like more. 
CELERY—Continued 
Winter Queen. This is a good variety of Celery 
for Winter and Spring use. Has a very large 
heart, creamy white and solid. 
Boston Market. It grows a very stocky heart and 
for eating qualities is very fine. We have an 
exceptionally fine stock of this Celery. 
White Plume. The earliest Celery, but it does not 
have the quality nor appearance of Golden Self 
Blanching, which follows right after it. 
CELER1AC, TURNIP-ROOTED CELERY 
Giant Smooth Prague. 
CARDOON 
Smooth Solid Cardoon. The midribs of the 
leaves are blanched and used in the same way as 
Celery. The main root may also be cooked and 
used as a table vegetable. Pkt. 10c., oz. 40c., 
yi lb. $1.25. 
CHERVIL 
Curled. .Sow seed in early Spring, and, when the 
plants are well established, reset to about a foot

being earlier and fully of as fine flavor. Pkt. 10c., 
oz. 30c., yi lb. $1.00. 
CHICORY 
Witloof (French Endive). Sow the seed in the 
open ground in June and allow the plants to grow

the leaves to about 1)4 in. from the neck, and 
replant in trenches, planting the roots upright 
about in. apart. Fill the trench with light 
soil and in 4 to 5 weeks the leaves will attain a 
good size and may be removed for use. J4 oz. 30c., 
oz. 60c.

the country Collards are used as a substitute for 
Cabbage. 34 oz. 15c., oz. 25c.
