I oz. to looo plamts. lo to 15 oz. to 

 the acre. 



Culture. — Celery seed may be sown 

 during March or April in hot-beds. 

 From middle of April or May seed may 

 be sown out-doors, for which purpose 

 select a warm location, and light rich 

 soil. Thin until there is a clear space 

 between the plants. When the plants 

 are six inches high, draw them, trim 

 tops, place them six inches apart in 

 trenches. Shade until they begin to 

 grow, and, if dry, water. Trenches 

 should be three feet apart, four inches 

 deep, and nine inches wide. Incorpor- 

 ate plenty decayed manure at bottom 

 of the trenches to a further depth of one 

 foot, which may be done with a spade. 

 Moist land, well enriched will give the 

 best results. After September ist, con- 

 tinue to draw on both sides rich pul- 

 verized soil t-o the stems, at intervals, 

 as the growth of the plants indicates. 

 This should not be done during rainy 

 or hot weather. Keep soil from the 

 heart of the plants. At the end of 

 October bury the whole in dirt, and dig 

 up^as desired for use.

CAULIFLOWER. 



Culture. — Cauliflower is grown in the 

 same manner as cabbage, but requires 

 cool, moist weather and well enriched 

 soil to attain perfection. It is highly valu- 

 ed for the mild delicate flavor of the white 

 heads. 



Early Snowball. — Extensively 

 advertised, this has deservedly attained 

 great popularity, and is now extensively 

 planted. Under favorable conditions 

 nearly every plant will make a fine, solid 

 head of good size. It is of dwarf habit, 

 valuable both for early and late crops.
