935 B Street, N. W., Washington, D. C.
/OUR NEW "VICTORY CELERY. 1 '
We so name this grand celery because it truly
stands victorious over all. It has a greater
amount of heart, is heavier, stouter and thicker
than all its rivals. It is the most economical
celery yet introduced, every particle being solid,
crisp and of a delicious nutty flavor. Its beauti-
ful, large, full golden heart and compact growth
make it an ornament hard to surpass. It is a re-
markable keeper, maintaining its firmness as late
as May. Critical market gardeners have pro-
nounced it to be of the finest quality, best keeper
and most salable celery they have ever raised. It
is ready for market by December — Packets, 5c.
and 10c. Ounce, Ioc. ± Pound, 50c. Pound, $1.50.
I, NEW PERLE LE GRAND CELERY.
^Experienced celery growers are surprised at
the size and excellence of this celery. It is no
longer on probation, for successive splendid
crops prove its superiority. This season its size
and quality have astounded old gardeners. It
keeps in perfect condition over winter and after
other sorts are gone. Its large, full, golden heart
and rich, nutty flavor leaves a pleasant taste be-
hind. It is customary with seedsmen to charge
high prices for such excellent productions, but
we prefer to send them out at low prices to in-
troduce them widely and quickly— Packets, 5c.
and 10c. Ounce, 20c. \ Pound, 50c. Pound, $1.50.
