THE O & M SEED CO. 
CELERY 
Culture—1 ounce for 3000 plants, 4 ounces for an acre. 
Muck land is best for celery, but it can be grown success¬ 
fully in any perfectly moist, garden soil. Sow in boxes or 
cold frame and when plants are 2 inches high, transplant 
again 2 inches each way. Set plants 8 inches apart in rows. 
Dig trenches 4 feet apart and 6 inches deep. When plants 
are full grown fill in trench for blanching. 
Golden Plume or Wonderful—A comparatively new 
introduction, closely resembling the Golden Self¬ 
blanching in crispness and flavor, however, is larger 
and a more rapid grower. Semi dwarf. Unequalled 
in quality. 
Culture—Sow early in May in rows 15 inches apart and thin to 
12 inches apart in rows. Grown like lettuce. Requires about 50 
days to grow a crop. To blanch, tie up the outer leaves like celery 
when full grown. Draw up soil about the plants. *4 ounce to 100 
feet rows, 4 lbs. per acre. 
Giant Pascal—One of the best for winter use. Leaves short 
and dark green color. Stalks short, thick and very broad. 
Blanches a yellowish white.
