CULTURE—Any garden soil will grow 
carrots. For early crops sow as early in the 
spring as possible and in rows 18 inches to 
2 feet apart. Cover not more than [/ 2 inch 
deep. When the plants are about 3 to 4 
inches high thin out to 2 inches apart for 
the small early varieties and 4 inches apart 
for the late ones. Give them plenty of room. 
Keep them thoroughly hoed.

half-long root, very well colored, 
and has a blunt end.

CELERIAC or Turnip Rooted Celery 
CULTURE—Sow the latter part of April, covering seeds / 4 of an 
inch. Thin out to about 1 inch apart in the row and transplant into 
rows l|/ 2 feet apart and 6 inches apart in the row. 
Uses—Served as a salad with French Dressing, or 
served hot with cream sauce. 
Roots are turnip-shaped, very smooth, tender and mar¬ 
row-like. Pkt., 5c; oz., 25c; 54 lb., 80c; 1 lb., $3.00. 
CAULIFLOWER 
CULTURE—Clean and thorough cultivation is absolutely essential to 
success with this very exacting vegetable. On heavy clay soils frequent 
cultivation, that creates a dust mulch, will often make up for an insuf¬ 
ficient water supply. Hoe right close to the plants, giving shallow culti¬ 
vation as they expand. The “heads” to be kept white and tender, must 
be protected from the sun soon after they begin to form by tying the 
leaves together over them. The seed is sown in April for an early crop 
and in July for a fall crop.

ready to transplant thin out to 2 or 3 inches 
apart in the row, and leave growing until 
July or August when they should be planted 
in rows IS to 20 inches apart and set 6 
inches in the row. In planting press the 
ground around the plants but do not let any 
earth get into the heart.

White Plume This variety is charac¬ 
terized by the silver- 
white color with which its leaves are part¬ 
ly tinged at first. It suffers easily from 
the cold and should be grown for autumn

SWEET CORN 
CULTURE—The seed should be planted about 2 inches deep, in drills 
3 feet apart and thinned to a single stalk every 10 to 14 inches in the 
row. The cultivation should be frequent and thorough, all weeds should 
be kept down, and all suckers removed from around the base of plant. 
On account of fertilization it is best not to plant a single variety in a 
long row but to plant each variety in blocks of several short rows. 
Sweet Corn is at its best when a slight pressure of the finger nail 
will cause the kernel to burst and a milky juice appears. 
One pound will plant 275 hills, and 14 pounds will plant about an 
acre in drills.
