CELERY 
One ounce will sow about 300 feet of a row and produce 
about 5,000 plants. 
Sow in the open border early in April, in rich ground. 
When tlie plants are 3 inches high, transplant 4 inches 
apart into temporary beds of soft rich soil until they ac¬ 
quire siiflicient strength for planting out. Plant in rows 
3 feet apart, and set 8 inches apart in the rows. After 
the planting nothing further is necessary for 6 or 7 
weeks, except running through between the rows with the 
cultivator or hoe, and freeing the plants from weeds. 
About the middle of August earthing up is necessary 
for blanching and whitening of that which is wantetl for 
early use. After the soil has been drawn up against the 
plant with the hoe it is further presseil close around each 
plant by the hand, firm enough to keej) the leaves up¬ 
right and prevent them from spreading, using care to ])re- 
vent the soil falling into the heart of the plant.
