LARGE SMOOTH PRAGUE 
GOLDEN SELF BLANCHING 
120 Days. This is undoubtedly the most popular variety 
for the market gardener and also the home garden. It is un¬ 
excelled and absolutely reliable and our rapidly increasing 
trade is abundant evidence of its high quality. It is now the 
leading sort on all marktes as an early Celeiy. For market 
use it is preferred to White Plume, because it does not wilt 
so soon, and its rich yellow color is very attractive. The 
stalks are heavier, of a fine nutty flavor, attains a good size, 
and it comes into market almost as soon as any other sort.

distinct from Golden Self-Blanching in being taller in

fine a flavor as the Golden Self-Blanching. Pkt. 10c, oz. 20c,
