GURNEY’S FAMOUS PRIZE WINNING CELERY 
1 ounce of seed will produce 5000 Plants 
For a vegetable that is so easily grown, celery seems to be an unknown 
commodity in most gardens. This is especially true in the northwest where 
the highest quality celery is produced. Northwestern celery does not look 
so nice as the Michigan or California grown but the plants are so crisp an 
have such a delicious nut-like flavor, that you are missing really the best 
part of the garden if you leave out this vegetable. 
Sow very early in April, transplant the plants when 2 or 3 inches high 
to about 6 or 8 inches apart in the row. Feed them well with plenty of well- 
rotted manure. 
DrawThe soil up to the plants as they grow. For the winter supply, plants 
should be taken from the cold frame in June and cared for just as you did 
for the early plants. 
• GOLDEN PLUME 
Is the last word in Self-Blanching Celery. It 
is a week earlier, blanches more easily, and is 
far more resistant to blight and crown-rot than 
Golden Self-Blanching. It has a beautiful golden 
color, is crisp, free from strings and has that rich 
nutty flavor so much desired by lovers.of fine 
celery. Pkt., 10c; V 2 oz., 20c; 1 oz., 35c; J4 lb., 
$1.10; 1 lb., $3.15. 
• GOLDEN SELF-BLANCHING 
Like the White Plume, this celery requires 
very little earthing up, and in many other re¬ 
spects it is similar to that favorite sort, differ¬ 
ing, however, in color, which is yellowish, the 
heart being large and solid and of a beautiful 
golden hue. Pkt., 6c; A oz., 15c; oz., 25c; 'A 
lb., 75c; lb., $2.25.

garlic in the fall. Price: 1 lb., 30c; 2 lbs., 55c;
