Kenney, Wor- cester, Mass., and shown at the Massachusetts Horti- cultural Society's October Exhibition. This, the best keeping, best flavored, and heavi- est cropper, is a sport from the Golden Self-Blanch- ing Celery; it couples with all the meritorious features of that variety, greater size and better keeping qualities. The stalks are very large, thick, solid,crisp, and of a rich, nutty flavor, entirely free from any trace of bitterness. Per pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 35 cts.; YA lb. $ BRECK'S PERFECTION RED CABBAGE. This, the best strain of Red Cabbage yet intro- duced, -was awarded first prizes at shozus in nine different States in the Union, season of 1895. The market gardeners of Boston prefer it to all oth jrs, because of its color, size, compactness of giowth, certainty of heading and solidity. Our stock was originally procured from S. P. Buxton, Esq., of Peabody, Mass., and great care has been taken to select and improve the type. We recommend it to all who grow red cabbage. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 40 cts.; lb., $ Hirtgham A
