SELF-BLANCHING 
GOLDEN "R" YELLOW RESISTANT. After 
several trials we have found Golden 
"R" the best so far introduced. It is in 
appearance a cross between Tall French 
Golden Self Blanching and Golden No. 
14. We found it most resistant to the 
celery disease known as Yellows sick¬ 
ness, root rot, sliming, and crown rot. 
We recommend our strain to growers 
who have in the past suffered losses 
from disease.

PASCAL CELERY 
The finest eating 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 Pascal Celery and Utah va¬ 
rieties, seed should be sown as late as April 
15th and transplanting outdoors can be done 
any time from June 1st to July 25th. This va¬ 
riety of celery requires forced bleaching, either 
by wrapping each stalk separate with paper 
while growing in the field, or by trenching. 
The former method is only used when early 
Pascal Celery is desired during August, Sep¬ 
tember and October, but for long keeping dur¬ 
ing winter, 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 considerable 
growth and then it is ready for the table or 
market. 
Weirich's Strain Pascal 
GIANT PASCAL (French). This seed is 
French grown and of good quality; how¬ 
ever, most planters who grow for the 
market prefer Weirich or Hartner's Spe¬ 
cial Strains of Giant Pascal. (See descrip¬ 
tion.) 
(Pkt. 5c) (oz. 25c) (Va lb. 65c) (lb. $2.00). 
HARTNER'S GIANT PASCAL. This is an 
improved and highly developed strain of 
Giant Pascal. It is much larger than the 
French or ordinary strain of Pascal and 
almost free from soft stalks. Its appear¬ 
ance and form are perfect, and its ea'ing 
and keeping qualities are outstanding 
and it ranks among the best. It is free 
from strings, crisp and sweet. For the 
market gardener and winter celery grow¬ 
ers we highly recommend this strain.

WEIRICH'S STRAIN PASCAL. (Home grown 
seed.) This strain is considered by the 
leading Pascal Celery growers as the 
highest development of this important 
variety of celery. It has had the most 
careful selection and breeding under 
glass. Stalks are rather dwarf, thick and 
firm. An easy bleaching variety suitable 
for both papering and trenching, and 
free from soft stalks and seeder. We 
claim this to be the apex of Pascal 
Celery.

UTAH JUMBO PASCAL. A new strain of 
Utah Celery, lately developed. On our 
farm the past season, we gave this va-. 
riety an extensive trial. The results were 
outstanding as it grows taller and heav¬ 
ier 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 
recommend it for early field bleaching.

Hartner's Giant Pascal Strain "A" 
CULTURE: For self-blanching or summer 
varieties, seed is started in hotbeds the mid¬ 
dle of March and requires close attention, 
keeping the seedbed moist and giving plenty 
of air. Plants should be set out any time 
between the 1st and 20th of May. Best results 
are obtained from double rows; that is, set 
plants on each side of the irrigating ditch. 
Set plants 8 inches apart in the rows, and 
double rows 3 to 31/2 feet apart. Self-blanch¬ 
ing Celery requires 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 
irrigation. Celery requires plenty of water, but 
water should not bo allowed to stand in the 
rows. 
LONG JOINTED WONDERFUL. For the last 
ten years more of the Wonderful strain 
of summer celery has been planted than 
any other, because it is unusually thick 
and attains large size and heavy weight. 
Also unusually free from soft stalk and 
seeders and a remarkable shipping va¬ 
riety. From this strain of Wonderful there 
has been selected a newer strain known 
as Long Jointed Wonderful. It produces 
a toller celery with a long heavy stalk.

GOLDEN SELF-BLANCHING. (Tall French 
Strain.) A variety extensively grown in 
this district, known as a summer variety 
and shipped to distant markets. Quick, 
robust grower, bleaches easily and stalks 
golden yellow color. Grows eight inches 
taller than most summer varieties.
