CELERIAC or Turnip Rooted Celery 
In this kind of celery, the rootsand not the leaf-stalks have been developed by cultiva- 
tion. The roots, which are the edible portion, keep well for winter use and are excellent 
for soups and stews. They are also cooked and sliced as a salad. 
Sow seed at the same season and give the same treatment as common celery. Transplant 
to moist, rich soil, in rows two feet apart and six inches apart in row. Give thorough 
culture. It is not necessary to earth up or “handle” the plants. After the roots have 
attained a diameter of two inches, they are fit for use. 
To keep through the winter pack in damp earth or sand and put in the cellar or leave out 
of doors, covering with earth and straw like beets and carrots.

garnishing meats and vegetables. 
Sow in early spring in rich, well prepared soil. The seed is slow to germinate, sometimes 
remaining in the earth four or five weeks before the plants appear. When the plants are 
about two inches high, transplant or thin to about one foot apart. They are ready for use in 
six to ten weeks from sowing.

Large Rooted or Coffee leaves may be used asaspring salad. Ourstock isthe improved type, with very wan 
larger, smoother, whiter and proportionately shorter roots than the old kind. 
Sow seed as early in spring as the ground can be prepared, in rather light, moderately rich soil, in drills two to two and 
one-half feet apart for either garden or field culture. When the plants are sufficiently large, thin to six inches apart in the row 
and cultivate well. Pkt. 10c; Oz. 25c; 2 Oz. 40c; 14 Lb. 75c; Lb. $2.25 
° The tops of this variety are very desirable for use as a salad. The leaves are 
Small Rooted or Radichetta long, narrow, entire or slightly toothed and blanch readily when the plants are grown 
close together. The roots are long and slender, averaging about one-half inch in diameter and from six to eight inches long. 
Sow seed as early in spring as possible, preferably in wide strips or blocks. Deep, rich, loomy soil which has been manured 
the previous year is essential for the best results. Keep clear from weeds and thin sparingly. Where climate permits seed 
may be sown about mid-winter. Pkt. 10c; Oz. 25c; 2 Oz. 40c; 4 Lb. 75c; Lb. $2.50

___.Sow seed about one inch deep in the open ground in May or June in rows about eighteen inches apart. Thin plants to six 
inches apart in the row. In the fall the roots should be lifted, the leaves trimmed to within one and one-half inches of the 
crown, the side roots broken off and the roots shortened to a uniform length of about nine inches. The roots are then placed 
upright in a trench about eighteen inches deep, setting the roots about two inches apart and the crowns at a depth of about 
nine inches below the level of the top of the trench. Fill in the trench with fine rich soil. If more rapid growth is desired 
cover the rows with a mulch of manure about one and one-half feet deep. The new tops will attain the proper size in from 
four to six weeks. Pkt. 10c; Oz. 30c; 2 Oz. 55c; %4 Lb. 90c; Lb. $3.00
