it bears a succession of sprouting heads which, if kept cut, will 
be replaced by others for 8 to 10 weeks. Each sprout, about 5 
inches long, ends in a small head of deep green buds. It is

setting IY 2 to 2 feet apart, in rows, which should be 3 feet 
apart. Cultivate frequently, and during dry weather water 
copiously. Late Cabbage seed should be sown in drills in open 
ground during April and May, and transplanted in June or 
July. Fertilize heavily, using 400 pounds nitrate of soda per 
acre in three dressings, one-third when plants are set out, and 
two-thirds a month apart later. Pkt. 5c; 1 oz. 30c; Yk lb. 90c;

as a rock, and quite large, often weighing 6 to 8 lbs. each. 
The latest of the Red Cabbages. 
Savoy. Enjoys great popularity on account of its tasty flavor 
which is sweeter and more delicate than that of ordinary 
Cabbage. The large round heads are somewhat flattened and 
very heavy. The deep green, crinkled outer leaves enclose 
the tender, light green heart. It matures late in the fall and 
will keep all winter. 
Chinese Improved or Wong Bolt. This exceptionally fine 
vegetable is rapidly growing in public favor. Its growth, which 
resembles the Cos lettuce, has long heads and crisp leaves. 
Very mild and pleasant flavor served as a salad or cooked. 
CELERY 
Yk oz. to 100 ft., 4 oz. per acre. 
Sow from February to May in drills 1 foot apart. Later, 
usually in June, transplant to rows 3 feet apart and 6 inches 
apart in row. Rows should be furrowed out so plants may be 
set 6 inches deep. Later, soil may be banked against rows for 
blanching, even so-called self-blanching varieties needing the 
cool, moist soil to render the stalks crisp and tender, but this 
should not be done until a few weeks before harvesting. One 
ounce of seed will produce five thousand plants. 
Golden Self Blanching (California Grown Seed). We have two 
distinct strains of this seed, one being the standard height 
while the other is 6 to 8 inches taller. Please specify on your 
order which you want. The tall strain of Calif. Celery grows 
rapidly, the outer leaves are quite tall on the long tops, so 
that the grower may sometimes be inclined to market it 
before the heart is mature. Be careful about this and give 
it more time if necessary. If you are producing celery for the 
market see us about seed, for we have made a careful study 
of this particular crop over a period of years and can prob¬ 
ably be of assistance to you. This type has been proven very 
satisfactory for shipping purposes wherever tried. Long top 
or short top. Pkt. 5c; oz. 50c; % lb. $1.65; 1 lb. $5.00, postpaid. 
Special Utah. This is the delicious green celery which is now 
so popular. The seed is raised for us in Utah and is the finest 
strain obtainable. The plants are compact and solid with broad, 
thick and well rounded stems. Very crisp and of a rich nutty 
flavor. Do not fail to plant some of this. Pkt. 10c; oz. $2.00; 
Vi lb. $5.00.
