Celery Summer Self-Blanching 
Gennan Sellerie. Italian—Sedano, AccL Spanish—Apio. 
Our Celery Seed is Tested and Guaranteed Pure. 
Culture for Summer Celery—Self-Blanching Varieties: 
Seed is started in hotbeds the middle of March and requires 
close attention, keeping the seedbed moist and giving 
plenty of air. Plants should be set out any time between 
the 1 st and 20th of May. Best results are obtained from 
double rowsj that is, set plants on each side of the irri¬ 
gating ditch. Set plants 8 inches apart in the rows, and 
double rows 3 to 3% feet apart. Self-Blanching Celery re¬ 
quires close attention and plenty of cultivation, as it is 
very injurious to the crop if plants are allowed to stunt, 
which is caused from lack of cultivation and improper irri¬ 
gation. Celery requires plenty of water, but water should 
not be allowed to stand in the rows. 
Harvesting Golden “R” on Our Farm 
Golden Self-Blanching (Tall French Strain). Grown exten¬ 
sively in this district for the past 15 years. Quick, robust 
grower, bleaches easily. Eight inches taller than most 
varieties, but does not contain as many heart stalks. 
Pkt., 10c; 1/2 oz., 50c; oz., 70c; Vi lb., $2.65; 1/2 lb., $4.25; 
lb., $ 8 . 00 , postpaid. 
Golden "X". This is a new variety from our trial grounds, 
planted side by side with six other varieties. Celery 
growers agree that it is outstanding because it has a 
large heart that grows well up in the stalk. Stalks thick, 
concave, firm and heavier than regular self-blanching. 
Does not wilt and holds up well after being harvested. 
We recommend it highly as a summer variety for Colo¬ 
rado. Pkt., 20c; 1/2 oz., 80c; oz., $1.20; 1/4 lb., $4.00; 
lb., $ 12 . 00 , postpaid. 
Golden "R". Yellows resistant. This strain of Golden 
Self-Blanching Celery has been selected for resistance 
to the celery disease known as yellows sickness, root rot. 
sliming and crown rot. Growers who have, in the past, 
suffered losses from this disease, can use this variety 
with success on infected soils. It is not resistant to other 
celery dieases, although withstands blight remarkably 
well. Resembles Golden Self-Blanching. Pkt., 26c; oz., 
$1.76; Vi lb., $6.60; V 2 lb., $ 0 . 00 ; lb., $16.00, postpaid. 
Pascal Celery 
The finest eating or table celery grown. It is of strong 
growth; forms solid, crisp stalks of rich, nutty flavor. 
Blanches easily to rich creamy white and is very brittle. 
Retains its color and fresh appearance for a long time. 
Culture for Celery—Pascal and Utah Varieties: Seed 
should be sown as late as April 15th and transplanting out¬ 
doors can be done any time from June 1st to July 25th. 
This variety of celery requires forced bleaching, either 
by wrapping each stalk separate with paper or by trench¬ 
ing. The former method is only used when early Pascal 
Celery is desired, but for flavor, quality, and long keeping, 
trenching is necessary. A trench about 12 to 16 inches 
wide and deep enough so that when the celery is placed 
in the trench standing erect, the tops project above the 
trench about 1 to 2 inches. Watch closely, for after the 
stalks have been stored in trenches some time, the outer 
stalks bleach creamy white and the hearts make consider¬ 
able growth and then it is ready for the table or market. 
Giant Pascal (French). This seed is French grown and 
of very good quality; however, most planters who grow 
for the market prefer Hartner’s Giant Pascal. (See de¬ 
scription below.) Pkt., 5c; oz., 26c; 1/4 lb., 65c; lb., $2.00, 
postpaid. 
Mariner's Giant Pascal. This is an improved and highly 
developed strain of Giant Pascal. It is much larger 
than the regular Pascal and almost free from soft stalks. 
Its appearance and form are perfect, and its eating and 
keeping qualities are better than any celery ever offered. 
It is free from strings, crisp and sweet. For the market 
gardener and winter celery growers there is no strain 
of Pascal better for either paper or trenching. 
Strain “A”—Short, pkt., 10 c; 1/2 oz., 30c; oz., 50c; 1/4 lb., 
$1.76; lb., $6.00, postpaid. 
Strain “B”—Tall, pkt., 10c; 1/2 oz., 30c; oz., 60c; 1/4 lb., 
$1.60; lb., $4.75, postpaid. 
Utah Jumbo Pascal. A new strain of Utah Celery, lately 
developed. On our farm the past season, we gave this 
variety an extensive trial. The results were outstand¬ 
ing as it grows taller and heavier than any other variety 
of Utah or Pascal Celery. Withstood blight better. Has 
an excellent appearance and fine flavor. Stalks are 
heavy, firm and crisp. A good shipping variety when 
bleached and ready for market. We especially recom¬ 
mend it for early field bleaching. Pkt., 20c; Vz oz., 80c; 
oz., $1.20; V 4 lb., $4.00; lb., $12.00, postpaid. 
Utah or Golden Crisp. Not to be compared with Jumbo 
Utah. Pkt., 10c; oz. 25c; V 4 lb., 80c; lb. $2.50, postpaid.
