CELERY. 



CUIiTUBi:. — Celery seed- is slow to germinate and ample time must be given. Sow 

 thinly, cover lightly and keep constantly moist. When the plants are from 4 to 6 inches 

 high cut off the tops and transplant them 6 inches apart into trenches 4 inches deep 

 and 9 inches wide and trenches 3 feet apart. As the plants grows fill the earth toward the 

 plant to secure proper bleaching. Never allow dirt to rest on the heart of the plant. 

 Sow in December, January and February in hotbeds for early transplanting, and in 

 August and September for a later crop. Sow thinly and shade during the hot months. 



An ounce will produce about 3000 plants, and one-half pound will plant an acre. 

 Ready for market in 110 to 150 days.
