Pfeffer (German) 
Peppers 
Spansk Peber (Scandinavian) 
Culture. Sow the seed (which is slow to germinate) in hotbed or boxes in the house. When large 
enough transplant into other boxes and pots, and when all danger of frost is past, transplant in the open 
ground in rows 2 V 2 feet apart, setting the plants about 18 inches apart in the row. About 200 seeds to 
the packet. 
HARRIS’ EARLIEST. The Earliest Pepper. Earlier and more produc¬ 
tive than Neapolitan; the plants are dwarf and compact with fruits 
averaging 3 V 2 inches long by 2 x k inches through. The flesh is thick 
and mild. The only sure variety in unfavor¬ 
able seasons. Pkt., 10c; Yz oz., 30c; oz., 
50c. 
HARRIS’ EARLY GIANT. This is the first 
very large sweet pepper that will produce 
good crops in the northern part of this 
country. The plants are vigorous and the 
fruits average 5 inches long by 3 V 2 inches 
through, dark green turning to brilliant 
red. This is a very worth while introduc¬ 
tion. Pkt., 10c; Yz oz., 28c; oz., 45c. 
TOMATO-SQUASH or SUNNYBROOK. The 
fruits are Tomato shaped, about 2 inches in 
diameter, with very thick and extremely

Plants, See Page 58 
Culture. Sow the seed 
(which is slow to germi¬ 
nate) in shallow boxes in 
the house early in the 
spring. One-eighth inch 
of soil to cover is suffi¬ 
cient. Transplant to open 
ground in June or July. 
Set plants in rows 3 feet 
apart and 5 inches apart 
in the rows, in ground 
thoroughly enriched, and 
cultivated. Until middle 
of August plants need 
nothing but water and 
cultivation. Celery should 
receive enough water at 
all times to prevent its 
growth being checked. 
Earthing up may then be¬ 
gin and continue as long 
as the plants grow. At 
approach of severe freez¬ 
ing weather plants should 
be dug and may be stored 
in a dark, cool cellar, 
standing upright with the 
roots in a little moist 
sand. About 7,000 seeds 
to the packet. 
Golden Self- 
Blanching Celery. 
Sellerie 
(German) 
Celery 
Selleri 
(Scandinavian) 
GOLDEN PLUME or WONDERFUL. This selec¬ 
tion from Golden Self-Blanching has the crisp¬ 
ness and nuttiness of that variety, but is 
earlier, larger and of ranker growth, and 
blanches more quickly. It is apparently most 
resistant to rust and disease and withstands 
heat better. Not a Winter keeper. It is a 
beautiful gold in color, brittle and of highest 
table quality. Pkt., 10c; oz., 40c; lb., 
$1.25, postpaid. 
GOLDEN SELF-BLANCHING. Ours is a supe¬ 
rior, dependable strain of this standard celery 
for early use. It is not quite as early as White 
Plume, but the plants are heavier and of more 
compact growth. Self-blanching, the color is 
a rich golden yellow; nearly stringless; the 
stalks are thick, crisp and brittle; while for 
flavor this sort is unsurpassed. Pkt., 10c; oz., 
35c; U lb., $1.05; Yz lb., $2.00; 1 lb., $3.75, 
postpaid. 
WHITE PLUME. One of the earliest varieties and most easily blanched. 
A rapid grower, itls not a very good keeper, but one of the best sorts 
for fall and early winter. Pkt., 5c; oz., 25c; lb., 75c, postpaid. 
WINTER QUEEN. A very solid and crisp variety with double the amount 
One of the very best keeping varieties. 
Yz lb., $1.35; 1 lb., $2.50, postpaid. 
of heart of any known celery. 
Pkt., 5c; oz., 25c; Yt lb., 75c; 
GIANT PASCAL. A compact, vigorous sort, a good keeper and one of 
the best varieties for Fall and Winter. Pkt., 5c; oz., 25c; Yi lb., 75c; 
Yz, lb., $1.35; 1 lb., $2.50, postpaid. 
CELERIAC OR TURNIP-ROOTED CELERY—GIANT PRAGUE. This 
is a celery of which only the root is used. Should be planted like 
other celery, but need not be banked. An excellent vegetable for use 
_ . . in soups, stews and sauces, as it imparts a delicious flavor. Is good 
Celeriac or^Turiilp-Rooted boiled se parately. Pkt., 5c; oz., 20c; U lb., 70c, postpaid. 
Your seeds are everything you claim for them. I’ll always get my seeds at Will's after this.
