The very long size and dark green color of the pods commend the variety particularlyfor market gardeners use and the size, color and unsurpassed quality of green peas make them especially de-sirable for the table. We believe Laxtonian is one of the most valuable peas of recent introduction.

Early ScarleF^T^nip, White Jipped Radish NOVELTIES AND SPECIALTIES, D. M. FERRY & CO., DETROIT, MICH. TWO SELECTED CELERY SPECIALTIES Columbia No better Celery has ever beenproduced than our strain of thissterling variety which was intro-duced by us in 1906. Those whoknow Celery at its best, gardenerswho get the highest price for theirproduct and connoisseurs who pre-fer to go without rather than eatCelery of inferior quality, have longrecognized our strain of GoldenSelf Blanching as without a superior.To this discriminating clientage wecommend our strain of Columbia asbeing the peer of Golden SelfBlanching. It comes into use only atrifle later and is very vigorous andhardy. In beauty of golden colorand soliditj and size of stalk it is un-surpassed. In delicacy of flavorColumbia is considered by many tosurpass Golden Self Blanching. Tryour strain of Columbia. We considerit the very best variety for the homegarden.
