CELERY. 
Seeds from the following list of celeries were planted May 
6 in boxes in the cold frame, and July 10 thirty plants of 
each were transplanted in trenches prepared as follows: 
Trenches 3 1-2 feet apart were dug eighteen inches wide 
and fifteen inches deep. Some of the soil taken from the 
trenches and well rotted compost were thoroughly mixed 
and filled into the trench to the depth of six inches ; three 
inches of soil was placed upon this, leaving the trench six 
inches deep. The plants were set in the trenches about six 
inches apart. The plants were rather small when set, and 
in several of the trenches many were destroyed by the 
heavy rains washing the soil in upon them. The soil was 
banked up around the plants, with the exception of Hen- 
derson’s White Plume, twice during the season, the last 
time about the 20th of September. 
The average length of the blanched stems, and the weight, 
calculated on the basis of one dozen plants, were as noted 
on next page. |
