Celery 
Celery, more than any other vegetable, demands intelligent and careful culture. 
The seed is very small and is slow to germinate; with the inexperienced a good stand . . . „ j tj i l 
of plants is an exception. For early, sow in shallow boxes in gentle heat in February Makes Seeds Healthy 
and March, and for later, sow about the middle of April in a finely prepared seed bed, 
in rows so that the plants can be kept free from weeds. Cover not more than A inch, and press down firmly 
with the back of the spade or a board. Be sure and keep the bed constantly moist (a partially shaded location 
is favorable on this account), or cover the bed with a light matting or burlap, directly on the soil until the plants 
begin to prick through the ground, when it should be immediately removed. When large enough to handle, thin 
and transplant to 4 inches apart. Clip off the tops when about 4 inches high to make them stocky. Plant out 
from the middle of June until the middle of July in rows 4 to 5 feet apart, and 8 inches apart in the rows. Care 
should be taken in setting, not to cover the crowns and to press the earth firmly about the roots. Keep it well 
cultivated until a month before it is wanted, when it should be hilled or banked for blanching; this shoidd be 
done gradually, usually in two or three operations a week or so apart, the last time almost to the tips of the leaves
