The Best Vitamins Are Home Grown 


Celery 
Culture—Sow the seed in a hotbed early in the spring. 
As soon as the plants are 3 inches high, transplant into 
frames in well-enriched soil 4 inches apart. Cut them 
once or twice before setting them out in May or June to 
make them stocky. When about six inches high trans- 
plant into trenches wide enough to hold two rows. The 
rows should be about 1 foot apart and the plants set 
about 8 inches apart. Winter celery should be earthed 
up to blanch, taking care not to cover the center of the 
plant. 
Easy Blanching. This is a splendid early variety for 
home and market garden. The plants are vigorous, erect, 
compact growth, blanching readily. The stalks are 
thick, solid, of a rich nut flavor. An excellent keeper.
