 Sow the last of March or early in April, in an open border, in rich mellow ground, in shallow drills, watering 

 'freely in dry weather. By rolling or pressing in the seed the result has been more satisfactory than when covered. 

 The tops are cut off once or twice befx)re planting out, to make them stocky. When the plants are 5 or 6 inches 

 high, transplant, the dwarf varieties 3 feet, and the taller sorts 4 feet between the rows, plants 6 inches apart in the 

 rows. Cultivate well, and when large enough blanch by earthing up. The first operation is that of handling; after 

 the soil has been drawn up with the hoe, it is drawn closer around each plant by the hand, to keep the leaves firm in 

 «.n upright position and prevent spreading, continuing until it is ready to be finally stored away for the winter. 

 The Celeriao swells like a turnip, and may be preserved in sand through the winter. To store for winter use, select 

 ■well-drained ground, dig trenches 1 foot wide and deep enough to cover the tops of the plants. Pack the stalks in this 

 in an upright position, covering with boards to shed the water, and in severe weather protect with straw or leaves.
