Winter Queen Celery 
Popular Late Celery 
Since the introduction of this very valuable 
celery seven years ago, it has become the most 
popular of all as a late winter keeper, frequently 
being seen and selling at high prices in the month 
of May, after all othbr celeries are done. It is 
much stouter, thicker and heavier; of stocky, robust 
habit, with double the amount of heart of other 
sorts. Ribs blanch to a creamy white, solid, 
crisp and of nutty flavor. (See photograph.) Pkt, 
10c.; oz., 25c.; } lb., 70c.; lb., $2.50.

portant sort. Pkt., 10c.; oz., 20c. ; $ lb., 60c. ;
