Imperator—A long, 8-inch, sloping shouldered carrot tap¬ 
ering to a blunt end, smooth and deep rich orange in 
color. Flesh rich orange, indistinct core, fine grained, 
high quality. Tops medium and strong enough for 
bunching. This is the carrot that is shipped from Cali¬ 
fornia to eastern markets. 14 lb., 30c.; lb., $1.00; 5 lbs. 
or more at 90c. a lb. 
Morse’s Bunching—Tops short: foliage rather coarsely 
cut; stems medium size and strong. Roots at maturity 
are 1 % to 1% inches in diameter and 8 inches long, al¬ 
most cylindrical with rounded shoulders, stump-rooted. 
A splendid bunching carrot for long distance shipping. 
% lb., 30c.; lb., $1.00; 5 lbs. or more at 90c. a lb. 
CAULIFLOWER 
Early Snowball—We have reason to believe from the re¬ 
ports brought to us by Cauliflower growers who use this 
seed year after year that it is far above the average 
Early Snowball seed offered. It matures early and even¬ 
ly. The pure white heads are remarkable for their great 
depth and unexcelled white color and do not become 
“soft” or “ricy” and you will not find any with green 
leaves in them. % oz., 85c.; oz., $1.45; % lb., $5.50; lb., 
$ 20 . 00 . 
Improved Super Snowball—A new variety making a very 
large, deep, solid, snow white head. The heavy upright 
growing leaves are very numerous and being close to¬ 
gether force the small inner leaves to curl over and pro¬ 
tect the head. Most cauliflower growers are always look¬ 
ing for something a little better. Here it is. % oz., 75c.; 
y 2 oz., $1.35; oz., $2.25; % lb., $8.00.

CELERY 
Golden Pascal —A yellow celery with the shape and qual¬ 
ity of green celery. Stems are rather narrow but very 
thick and rounded and of excellent length, the edible 
portion usually runs from 9 to 10 inches long. Matures 
about the same time as Dwarf Golden Self-Blanching. 
Oz., $1.00; % lb., $3.50; lb., $12.00. 
Golden Plume (Wonderful)—In our opinion this is the 
best early yellow celery and our Special Strain as fine as 
any in the country. The stalks are large, thick and 
solid, and the edible portion unusually long. The plants 
are compact, full-hearted and blanch readily. We are 
very proud of this Special Strain of Golden Plume. We 
know it will please the most critical celery grower. We 
offer two types of this celery, Tall Golden Plume and 
Medium High Golden Plume. Oz. 65c.; 14 lb., $2.25; 
lb., $8.00. 
Golden Self-Blanching. The Old Dwarf Growing, Long 
Keeping Kind- —-This is the most popular late variety. 
The stalks are thick and solid and the stocky plants 
have large, solid hearts. Celery growers have found our 
strain of this kind very good. We can fully recommend it 
to you. Oz., 65c.; 14 lb., $2.25; lb., $8.00. 
Utah or Salt Lake.—A new green celery. Sturdy, compact 
plants, exceptionally solid with broad, thick, rounded 
stems, crisp and of very high quality. The plants are of 
medium height and have a heavy 
heart.

OF AGRICULTURE 
"A few houses are now stamping stock numbers on all 
packages that go out. This marks a real advance in seed 
merchandising. Seed users should make record of these 
stock numbers, and observe type and performance very 
carefully. Future seed orders may then be placed, with 
both buyer and seller assured that they are talking about 
the same stock as well as the same variety. Your reference 
to the mark on the package you received last season tells 
the seedsman what he sent you and he is guided accord¬ 
ingly in filling your order for this year.” 
You will find stock numbers on every package of vege¬ 
table seed you get from Hart & Vick. Keep a record of 
them for future seed orders.
