WM. HENRY MAULE, PHILADELPHIA, PA., 1930 
Maule’s Celery 1 
CuLTURE—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 should be clipped at the © 
top, to favor stocky growth, or else transplanted. Celery is mostly grown under 
flat culture, without trenches, in rows 4 feet apart, 6 inches apart in row. For 
home 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 soil for banking for winter storage without lifting. Ready for 
use in 110 to 140 days. f
