select seed. Our plants are all grown in cold

Sweet peppers grow in popularity each year 
for use in salads, cooking and pickles. A few

family will use. Chinese Giant, Ruby King, 
Golden Queen Mammoth and Harris’s Early

is early but smaller than the later kinds. Pi- 
mentoes are small but meat is much thicker. Hot

CELERY 
Many home owners think celery is a very dif¬ 
ficult vegetable to grow in our North Missouri 
soil. It may not be possible to grow celery on 
a large commercial scale, but no home garden 
owner need deprive himself of this luxury. Cel¬ 
ery can be classed as a luxury when you grow 
it at home and get that fine flavor which is 
completely lacking in the shipped article. Any 
garden soil that will grow good lettuce and 
cabbage may easily produce a family supply of 
this welcome delicacy. Last year we sold 
30,000 celery plants and will have 100,000 for 
sale this year. Set the plants 4 to 6 inches 
apart in a straight row. Keep them hoed clean. 
When celery is a foot high toward the last of 
August gather each stalk up straight and tie 
it at the top with a string. To blanch it use 
boards against the rows or tie paper around 
each stalk, or use a tile or anything else that 
will exclude the light from the stalks and the 
self-blanching kinds will be ready to use in a 
short time. 
Golden Self Blanching and Henderson’s Easy 
Blanching for fall use. Giant Pascal for winter 
use. Plants ready in May and June. 25 plants, 
15c; 50 plants 25c; 100 for 45c.
