HOLLOW STALK OF CELERY. 



1 have been very much interested in 

 the articles published in the late num- 

 bers of the Keview about celery. I grow 

 several thousand bunches every year, and 

 have had some trouble with it getting 

 hollow, and also with running to seed. 

 Last year I thinned my plants and trans- 

 planted the ones I took out as soon as 

 they were large enough to handle, cut- 

 ting off a small portion of the root and 

 also the top. I set them in the garden 

 the latter part of May. Those that had 

 been transplanted had an abundance of 

 fine roots, while those that were not 

 transplanted had a large tap root with 

 but few feeders, and most of them went 

 to seed, while those that had been trans- 

 planted did not run to seed. My ex- 

 perience is that early sown seed will 

 have to be transplanted. I would like to 

 hear what other celery growers think 

 about it. I was troubled very much with 

 ground mice eating my celery in Octo- 

 ber and November. Would like to know 

 how to got rid of them. H. C.

I was very much pleased with the ar- 

 ticles on hollow stalks of celery, pub- 

 lished in the Eeview of recent dates. 

 Mr. S. says he prepared his seed bed in 

 the open ground in January. Now would 

 that do here in xndiana? I have about 

 four acres of peat lake bottom and 

 raised a large crop of potatoes, sweet 

 corn and field corn. Now I want to 

 plant something that will pay better 

 than these crops. Could you suggest any- 

 thing? Ireland has its peat bogs; so 

 has Holland, and I would like to know 

 what pays best; also any suggestions 

 about draining and managing where tne 

 water level has its ups and downs. What 

 are the best works on market gardening 

 in Holland (English translation)?
