CRISP CELERY TENDER 
CULTURE.—^Celery seed is slow to germinate and ample time must be 
given. Sow thinly; cover lightly. Keep constantly moist. Count on about 
7,500 plants per ounce of seed, or 44 lb. per acre. When the seedling plants 
are three inches high they should be thinned out one inch apart, or else 
transplanted. 
Celery is mostly grown under flat culture, without trenches, in rows 3 
to 5 feet apart. For home use Celery is often grown in double rows, 10 
inches apart without trenching, and banked for VVinter storage just where 
it grows, without lifting.
