Giant Pascal 



Emperor 



Maulers Celery 



Culture: For earliest celer>', sow the seed thinly in the house or hotbed in February or early March. For a late crop for fall 

 use or -ninter storing, sow the seed in frames or a specially prepared seedbed in the open ground as early in the spring as the soil 

 can be worked up into a loose condition. Cover seed \vith no more than '< in. of fine soil. Keep evenly and moderately moist 

 until the seeds sprout, which usually requires two weeks. Set plants 6 to 8 in. apart in single rows 4 ft. apart or double rows 1 ft 

 apart, allowing 4 ft. of space between each double row. Celery requires rich, well-manured soil and plenty of moisture for best 

 results. It does especially good on muck soil. A packet of seed will provide about 400 plants; one oz. about 7,500 plants. Four 

 ounces of seed are needed for an acre.
