CI'LTIIIE— Sow this slowly germinating seed in a shallow box or in straight 
rows in a rtnely prepared bed. See that the seeds are kept almost wet and only 
lightly covered until they germinate. Thin and transplant when about two In- 
ches high, so that when about 4 inches high the tops may be cut off, the plants 
Uanding- about 3 inches apart. By cutting it makes the plants grow stocky 
.V good soil and plenty of water are essential to success. Set out about the 
nlddle of June or July, but good plants may be had by setting out as late as 
August. In setting, prepare broad shallow trenches about 6 inches deep and 4 
;eet apart, in which the plants should be set 6 inches apart, cutting oft the outer 
leaves and pressing the soil firmly about the roots. Karth up a litle during the 
summer, keeping the leaf stocks near together, so that the soil cannot get be- 
tween them. Finish earthing up in the autumn, and never hoe or earth up in 
moist weather or when the plants are moistened witli 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, pack- 
ing closely, but not crowding. After the trench is filled it should be covered with 
straw or leaves as a protection from the frost. l>o 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.

of White Plume is becoming more popular each seas )n on ac- 
count of the extreme care we use in selecting our seed. It Is 
almost self-blanching, naturally its stalk and portions of the 
inner leaves and heart are so white that by closing the stalks, 
either by tying or simply drawing the soil up against the 
plant and pressing it together, the work of blanching is com- 
plete. Valuable for Fall and Winter use. A good keeper. Pkt.
