covering too deep. For the home garden it is often more satisfactory to 
buy the plants which we offer on page 74. 
YELLOW OR SELF-BLANCHING VARIETIES 
358 CORNELL 19. The Best Yellow Celery. 
100 days. This beautiful celery is a yellow, self-blanching type with all 
the fine qualities of the Pascal celeries. The stalks are very long, smooth 
ribbed and deeply rounded, and the flesh is thick and tender and with- 
out strings. The remarkable quality is carried even on the outer stalks, so 
that 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. For early crop, it may produce seeders if the plants are kept 
too cool, but it is without equal for main crop. Its fine appearance and 
unusual quality make it tops for home or market. 
Pkt. 15c; 4 Oz. 45c; 14 Oz. 80c; Oz. $1.35; 144 Lb. $4.35. 
357 CORNELL 6. Extra Thick Stalks of Finest Quality. 100 days. This 
strain has thicker, smoother stalks, a heavier growth and a little fuller 
heart than Cornell 19. Not quite so tall to the first joint, but it has a 
crisp nutty flavor that makes it very popular. Easily blanched, re- 
sistant to yellows. 
Pkt. 15c; 144 Oz. 70c; 4% Oz. $1.10; Oz. $2.00; 144 Lb. $6.15. 
367 GOLDEN PLUME. Stockoff Strain. 90 days. An extra-fine strain of 
Golden Plume, produced in New Jersey and outstanding in performance 
on both muck and upland. It is a tall type, very early and a vigorous 
grower, selected for large solid stalks and heavy, full hearts. Easily 
blanched, it has the size and quality that markets want and it will 
bring top prices. The stalks are long to the first joint, (8 to 10 in.), broad, 
moderately ribbed and of good quality. Highly recommended for 
home or market. 
Pkt. 20c; 14 Oz: 75e; % Oz. $1.15; Oz. $2.15; 144 Lb. $7.10. 
365 GOLDEN PLUME OR WONDERFUL. Original Strain. 90 days. The 
standard early yellow celery, still popular with many leading growers 
both for home and market. It is early, making full, solid plants and the 
hearts are of excellent quality. Blanches easily to a beautiful even 
golden color. 
Pkt. 15c; 14 Oz. 35c; 4% Oz. 55c; Oz. $1.00; 44 Lb. $3.50. 
GREEN VARIETIES 
378 SUMMER PASCAL. Waltham Improved. 
115 days. With the same unsurpassed quality as the regular Summer 
Pascal, this strain has a better plant—longer stems and more erect 
growth. The stalks are exceptionally long to the first joint (9 to 12 in. 
under good conditions) and they are thick, well-rounded, crisp and 
tender, yet they stand handling well. The slightly taller and heavier 
plants make a vigorous growth and it is the most desirable high quality 
green celery for many growers in the Northeast. 
Introduced for the first time last year, this improved strain has proved 
a great success on both muck and upland. Under favorable conditions 
and good fertility, it is an outstanding type, attractive and delicious 
and we highly recommend it. 
Pkt. 25c; 144 Oz. 60c; % Oz. 90c; Oz. $1.75; 144 Lb. $5.50. 
377 SUMMER PASCAL. Delicious, Thick and Crisp. 115 days. One of the 
very high quality green varieties, with stems so thick and tender that 
even the unbleached 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 long (8 to 9 in.) and 
the inside stems grow long also, making a thick solid plant. It blanches 
to a pure white. Our strain is famous for uniformity and trueness to 
type. Pkt. 20c; 14 Oz. 45c; % Oz. 75c; Oz. $1.30; 144 Lb. $4.35. 
CELERIAC 
Turnip Rooted or ‘‘Knob Celery” 
Easy to grow, this celery-like vegetable produces large thick roots 
which are eaten after they reach 2 in. or more in diameter. They re- 
quire no blanching and are very delicious in the fall and winter, as 
they are easily stored. Celeriac has a pleasant nut-like celery flavor. 
Try it cubed, boiled and served with a cream sauce, or in soups and 
stews. } 
352 LARGE PRAGUE. The Best Kind. 120 days. This superior variety pro- 
duces large even bulbs or “‘knobs’’ of excellent quality. The standard 
market type because of its fine appearance, it is good for home use 
also, having a delicate appetizing flavor. 
Pkt. 15c; &% Oz. 40c; Oz. 75c; 14 Lb. $2.00. 
383 UTAH 15. Large Pascal Type. 
130 days. This late strain of the famous Salt Lake or Utah is used to 
produce much of the fine-flavored green celery that is shipped into our 
markets from the West. Many growers find it equally successful here, 
on both muck and upland. 
Utah 15 grows very large and upright with thick rounded stems 8 to 
10 in. long to the first joint and of the finest quality, crisp, brittle 
and delicious. The plants are tall, with dark green leaves and the 
numerous stalks make a heavy plant with plenty of heart. 
Pkt. 20c; 14 Oz. 45c; 4 Oz. 75c; Oz. $1.30; 14 Lb. $4.35. 
375 SALT LAKE or UTAH. An Old Favorite Variety. 125 days. Noted 
for its quality and flavor, this standard green celery has large thick 
stalks and produces well-developed hearts. It is tender and free of 
strings or fiber and blanches quickly to a pure white. When blanched, 
the stalks are very crisp, brittle and altogether of the finest flavor. 
This firm celery keeps well and we highly recommend it for winter 
storage. Pkt. 15c; 14 Oz. 35c; 144 Oz. 55c; Oz. $1.00; 14 Lb. $3.50.
