HOLMES’ EMPEROR CELERY 
Still a Greater Favorite 
This marvelous Celery was named and introduced by H. L. Holmes 
in 1912. It has taken the lead among the late Celeries and has a world- 
wide reputation. It is distinct and excels all others, being the most 
solid and finest crisp, nut-flavored and best keeping sort of outstanding 
merit. Holmes’ Emperor is superior in that it is free from the string- 
iness common to other sorts. The plants are dwarf and therefore much 
easier to blanch than the taller growing varieties. The tops are dark 
green while the outer stalks are smooth, almost perfectly round, ex- 
ceptionally thick, very brittle, and blanch a beautiful white with rich 
yellow heart. You cannot afford to be without Holmes’ Emperor. It is 
simply delicious. Pkt., 15c; 14 0z., 40c; 0z., 75c; 14 Ib., $2.75; Ib., 
$10.00.

lege. The head has a shorter core than the original Danish Ballhead,

than high. The average yield per acre is much higher than other sorts. 
Its keeping qualities are unequalled. Pkt., 10c; 18 o0z., 35c; 0z., 60c;

YANKEE HYBRID SQUASH 
All-America Winner 
To get this wonderful Squash two parent strains were bred—a true 
first generation hybrid made by controlled crossing of inbred Con- 
necticut Straightneck and Early Prolific. This cross produces a Squash 
that is distinctly earlier than either parent, is more productive and is 
more uniform. Fine for bush type. Fruit medium yellow,
