Celery 
CULTURE—One ounce of seed will produce 15,000 plants. 
Golden Self-Blanching Seed should be sown in _hot-beds 
about March Ist, covering the seed very lightly. Keep the 
seed-bed moist, giving it plenty of air. Keep the tops of 
the plants sheared off, which will cause them to grow 
stockier with better roots. Keep the soil well stirred between 
the rows and around the plants. A good rule is to plow or 
work the ground every time it is watered. Great care should 
be used in watering, or the ground will sour and cause the 
celery to blight or rust. Celery requires water often, but not 
a great deal at a time. When about ready to harvest, it may 
be blanched with either boards or dirt, boards being prefer- 
able in warm weather, and dirt in cool weather. 
Giant Pascal seed should be sown from the Ist to the 15th 
of April in hot-beds, same as the Golden Self-Blanching. 
Plants should be set in the field from June 10th to July Ist, 
in single rows, about 8 inches apart in the row, cultivating 
same as the Golden Self-Blanching. About October 10th or 
before freezing, it should be trenched and protected from 
freezing, when it will bleach and be ready for winter use.
