CAULIFLOWER. (Brassica oleracea, VAR.) 



See cabbage and follow the same directions there given, 

 except that in the Southern States it is useless to plant

 CELERY. (Apium graveolens.) 



Select a moist, but not wet, sandy loam, very rich, or 

 make it rich ; let it be as convenient to water as possible.

 so as to make them stocky. Transplant in June or July. 

 Mark off rows three feet apart, and set the plants six inches 

 apart in the row, being careful to press the earth firmly
