Full-Hearted Endive ( Escarolle ) 
New Celery, Bokay 0 
Exhaustive tests have proved this to be the finest green Celery on the market 
today. Bokay has been developed from our Earligreen. The ribs are about the 
same length as our Golden Plume (which we also introduced), and are more fleshy 
and rounder than the Easv-Blanching. It has a good golden heart and the bouquet 
effect of the green ribs with the beautiful heart induced us to name this new variety 
Bokay. Bokay is hardy, withstanding frost and drought better than other varieties, 
and you will find it a very desirable sort for the trade wanting a good green Celery 
without bleaching. Bokay has good height, making it desirable for shinping in 
crates. Pkt. 25 cts., i/ 4 oz. 75 cts., i/ 2 oz) $1.35, oz) $2.50, V 4 lb. $7.50, lb. $25.

The Best Early Cauliflower, 
S, & W. Co.’s Best of All 
The easiest grown and surest heading Cauliflower offered today. 
In habit the plant is very dwarf, stocky, and erect. It has very few 
outer leaves and, as a consequence, the young Cauliflower plants may 
be planted less than 2 feet apart each way. All that is necessary is to 
select suitable soil, when every plant will form a large, solid, perfect 
head of the finest table quality and of handsome appearance. 
l / 4 oz. $1.25, V 20 Z. $2, oz. $3.50. 
The Full-Hearted closely resembles the Broad-leaved Batavian, 
with broad and thick leaves, twisted and waved, with round ends, 
and of a bright deep green, with nearly white midrib. The head, 
however, is more compact and is full, blanching easily to a creamy 
white. Oz. 20 cts., %lb. 50 cts., lb. $1.35, 10 lbs. $13.
