Early Self-Blanching Varieties. 
The peculiarity of the self-blanching celeries is that they 
hout the laborious banking up 
will blanch naturally wi 
which is essential to ordinary sorts. They are as easy to 
grow as any other vegetable. If the stalks are drawn to- 
gether when the plant is three-fourths grown and the suil 
drawn to or pressed around the plant it will soon be fit for 
use. Boards are sometimes placed close up to the plants 
but the result is not so satisfactory as by contact with the 
earth,
