CELERY 
One ounce of seed will produce about 8000 plants, a packet 400 to 500 plants. 
For very early planting the seed should be sown in the greenhouse or hot bed in February 
or first of March. For late crop the seed is sown in the open ground as early as possible. 
Great care must be taken not to cover the seed too deep. Most failures to get the seed to 
germinate are due to this cause. For the home garden it is often more satisfactory to buy 
the plants. See page 74. 
YELLOW OR SELF-BLANCHING VARIETIES 
358 CORNELL 19. The Best Yellow Celery. This beautiful celery is a yellow, 
9 self-blanching type with all the fine qualities of the Green 

Pascal celeries. The stalks are very long, smooth ribbed and deeply rounded, and the 
flesh is thick and tender and without strings. The remarkable quality is carried even on 
the outer stalks, so that not only the heart but the entire plant is delicious to eat, and the 
flavor is much finer than any other yellow celery. 
Cornell 19 is resistant to yellows and well adapted for both muck and upland. Not 
recommended for early crop but it is without equal for main crop and storage. On the 
market it brings premium prices because of its fine appearance and unusual quality and 
it is by far the best yellow celery for the home garden.

CELERIAC 
Turnip Rooted or “Knob” Celery 
This is a really delicious vegetable which gives a very welcome addition 
to the fall and winter menu. It is easy to grow and should be in every home 
garden. It is a kind of Celery which forms large bulb-like roots. The 
bulbs when cut into cubes, boiled and served with a cream sauce are 
delicious. It has a pleasant nut-like celery flavor. The culture is the same 
as for Celery except that it needs no blanching. Celeriac attains its best 
size when grown on mellow well fertilized ground.

GREEN VARIETIES 
377 SUMMER PASCAL. New Early Green Celery of Su- 
perior Quality. In our opinion 
this is the finest quality celery grown. The stems are so thick and 
tender that even the unblanched outside stalks are surprisingly fine. 
They have a rich full flavor that is seldom found in celery. The plant 
is not tall, but sturdy and robust. The stems to the first joint are ex- 
ceptionally long (8 to 9 in.) and the inside stems grow long also, making 
a thick solid plant. It blanches to a pure white. 
Summer Pascal is highly popular wherever green celery is grown. 
It is an early variety, maturing right after the yellow varieties and be- 
fore Salt Lake. We offer an exceptionally fine stock. 
Pkt. 15ce; 14 Oz. 40c; % Oz. 65c; Oz. $1.25; 14 Lb. $4.25. 
375 SALT LAKE. Alse called UTAH. The Standard Green 
—$<$___ — Celery. Green celery is superior to yellow both 
in quality and flavor and Salt Lake is famous for both these character- 
istics. The stalks are large yet tender with no strings or fiber and with 
a thick well developed heart. There are practically no soft stalks. 
This celery blanches quicker than many green varieties and when 
blanched is pure white, very crisp, brittle and altogether of the finest 
flavor. 
The firm hard stalks keep well and we can highly recommend this 
celery for winter storage.
