CuLTUuRE—Celery seed is slow to germinate, and ample time must be given. Sow thinly in early spring and cover lightly. 
Keep constantly moist. Count on about 400 plants to a packet of seed, about 7,500 plants per ounce or quarter pound per 
acre. When the seedling plants are 3 inches high they shouldbe clipped at the top, to favor stocky growth, or else trans- 
planted. Celery is mostly grown under flat culture, without trenches, in rows 4 feet apart, 6 inches apart in row. For 
1ome use celery is often grown in double rows, 10 inches apart, and plants 6 inches apart in each row, allowing 4 feet of space 
before setting out another double row. This will permit soilfor banking for winter storage without lifting. Ready for use 
in 100 to 140 days.
