CULTURE.—Sow seeds in light rich soil, as eariy as ground can be worked, in 
drills 8 or 10 inches apart, cover seeds about a quarter of an inch deep, rolling or treading 
them if ground is dry. When fairly out of seed leaf transplant or thin from 6 to 8 inches 
apart in the row, and let grow until wanted to plant out. Keep well wet down in dry 
weather. Set out in July, 6 to 8 inches apart, (press soil firmly against roots), in single 
row in shallow trenches, having previously worked a good quantity of well rotted manure 
in bottom of trench. It is well to work thoroughly into the soil under and around the 
trench a quantity of Our Garden Fertilizer. To raise good celery requires rich soil. Earth 
up two or three times, taking care not to let the earth get into the heart of the plant.
