See that the 
good plants may be had by setting out as late as August. In setting, prepare broad shallow trenches about 6 inches deep and 
4 feet apart, in which the plants should be set 6 inches apart, cutting off the outer leaves and pressing the soil firmly about the 
roots. Earth up a little during the summer, keeping the leaf stocks near together, so that the soil cannot get between them. 
Finish earthing up in the autumn, and never hoe or earth up in moist weather, 
or when the plants are moistened with dew. To preserve celery for winter, dig 
trenches a foot in width and as deep as the top of the plants. Stand the celery 
in these, erect as they grew, with what dirt adheres to the roots, packing close- 
ly, but not crowding. After the trench is filled it should be covered with straw 
or leaves as a protection from the frost. Do not cover until the weather be- 
comes quite cold, and then only a little at a time as the cold becomes greater. 
Celery will bear a good deal of frost. The trench must have good drainage.
