CELERY 
Golden Plume 
This is a fine new celery that we can 
recommend without reserve. It is fully a 
week earlier than Golden Self Blanching, is 
similar in color and flavor but is superior 
to it as this variety blanches more easily, 
is more blight-resistant. It has been espec¬ 
ially selected for large, solid hearts. Spec¬ 
imen stalks have been grown 2 ft. tall and 
4 % in. thick. Has been blanched in the re¬ 
markably short period of 5 days. Select 
Seed: Pkt. 10c.; y 2 oz. 25c.; oz. 45c.;

Mary Herbert, Warren, Ohio.—I have used 
your seed for eleven years and find them 
reliable. They are always good. 
GOLDEN SELF 
BLANCHING 
GOLDEN PLUME 
EMPEROR 
One of the newer vegetables that Is 
rapidly gaining in popularity as its 
excellent qualities are becoming known. 
It is grown the same as cabbage or 
cauliflower and is ready for use in about 
90 days after sowing. The head is a 
compact cluster of tightly closed flow¬ 
er buds somewhat like a cauliflower 
in shape only. When the main head is 
cut numerous sprouts develop along 
the main stalk which later form into 
smaller heads thus producing through¬ 
out the season. The heads should he 
cut before the flowers open and may 
be cooked like cauliflower or aspara¬ 
gus. The heads should have 3 to fi 
inches of the branch or stem attached 
as this is fully as good as the head it¬ 
self. Pkt. 8c.; >/ 2 oz. 20c.; oz. 35c. 
Celery Cabbage 
Until recently tin’s new vegetable 
was unknown but as its good quality 
became known it is rapidly gaining 
popular favor. For best results the seed 
should be sown tlie latter part of July 
in rows 2 feet apart and thinned to 
stand 15 inches apart in the rows, 
then a most excellent vegetable can 
be grown. Develops quickly and as the 
weather gets colder it heads up nicely 
producing crisp, celery-like stalks, 
beautifully blanched. It can be eaten 
raw, made into salads or cooked as 
cabbage or greens. Pkt. 8c.; / z oz. 
12c.; oz. 20c. 
Broccoli 
Italian Green Sprouting 
Swiss Chard 
Lucullus 
Plants grow two fpet high and con¬ 
sist when fully developed of about a

ner as Spinach. Pkt. 5c.; oz. 10c.;

Endive Green Curled 
Mostly sown in June or July for fall use; 
plant in rows about one foot apart, thin out 
blanch by tying the tops together. Green Curled 
to 8 inches apart and when well along blanch by tying - 
is a hardy variety, the most desirable for home use or market garden. Deep green leaves 
beautifully rut and curled; easily blanched and becomes crisp, tender and very fine fla¬ 
vored. Pkt. 5c.; oz. 10c.; J4 'b. 35c. 
Golden Self Blanching The best of all self-blanching varieties. 
- It is without doubt the most popular cel¬ 
ery grown. The ribs are perfectly solid, crisp, brittle and of a delicious flavor 
which is not surpassed by any other variety while it has the decided merit of 
being self-blanching to a remarkable degree. It is extensively grown for market 
and private use, not only on account of its easy culture but for its superior 
quality. The hearts are large and hard and blanched to a beautiful golden yellow. 
When grown in moist soil the stalks are numerous and large in size. Pkt. 8c.;

Emperor An excellent celery for fall and winter use, of true dwarf 
- growth, having a very large heart, solid and of finest nut flavor. 
Being of dwarf growth, 15 to 18 inches tall, it is much easier to blanch than 
the taller varieties. The stalks are smooth, very thick, round and crisp, blanch¬ 
ing to a light golden color. An especially good keeper.Pkt. 8c.; [/ 2 oz. 12c.; 
oz. 25c.; % ;lb. 90c. 
'White Plume This is the earliest and most easily blanched celery. 
- The plants grow rapidly and blanch easily during the 
summer months. Later in the fall the central stalks and leaves are of pure 
snowy whiteness even without earthing up; but stalks should be gathered to¬ 
gether and earttied up as in the other varieties so as to produce close, attractive 
bunches. As for succulence, crispness and quality the White Plume is un¬ 
equalled. Pkt. 5c.; \'z oz. 15c.; oz. 25c. 
Wm, Bechtold, Edgewood, Md.—I

out of the Celery Cabbage, every¬ 
body went wild over it.
