CELERY 
CULTURE.—Sow in open grounnd in March or early in April. 
Transplant in June or July. When from 4 to 6 inches high, trans- 
plant into broad, shallow trenches, 3 feet apart and 6 inches in 
the rows. The soil should be light, highly manured, and the plants 
must be freely watered in dry weather. Earthing up should not be 
begun until the plants are quite well grown, then earth up gradually, 
keeping the leaves together, so that the soil may not fall into the 
center of the plant; never earth up in wet weather or when the 
dew is on the plants. 
Fordhook Emperor. 130 days. A most distinct variety 
of outstanding merit. It is of true dwarf type and, 
therefore, much easier to blanch than the taller-grow- 
ing sorts. The stalks are smooth and very thick, some 
measuring one-half inch through, when cut. The color 
is white, the heart tinged with yellow. 
Pkt. 10c; %4oz. 35c; oz. 70c; 14lb. $2.00. Postpaid. 
Giant Pascal. 135 days. A good variety to grow for win- 
ter market as the large bunches of broad, smooth 
stalks keep well when put away for winter use. Plants 
are of a dwarf, compact habit, with thick, solid stalks 
of deep green color which blanch to a golden yellow, 
with an excellent nutty flavor. 
Pkt. 10c; 1440z. 30c; oz. 50c; 141b. $1.50. Postpaid. 
Golden Self-blanching. 120 days. A most valuable varie- 
ty which is somewhat of the character of the celebrat- 
ed White Plume inasmuch as it does not require such 
high banking up as the ordinary sorts to be fit for the 
table. It needs simply a slight earthing up. Then it 
becomes a beautiful waxy golden color, very solid, and 
of a rich nutty flavor. 
Pkt. 10c; 4%oz. 40c; oz. 70c; 141b. $2.00. Postpaid. 
Summer Pascal. 120 days. An early green celery of 
superior quality. Plant is robust but not tall with 
stems to first joint 8 to 9 inches long. Blanches to a 
pure white.
