Text Appearing After Image:
A vegetable at ouee healthful, toothsome and beautiful. Said by physicians to be of great benefit in all diseases of the nerves and kidneys. Deliciously fresh, crisp and nutty to the taste, and the broad stalks, ivory white, waxy yellow or rose red, tipped with finely composed leaflets of pale, glacous green are ornamental to the finest tables. Sow in hotbed and transplant, or sow outdoors when the ground becomes warm. When plants are four or five inches high transplant, giving six inches between plants in the row. Have the soil very firm and rich, plant in trenches, and as the plants grow draw the earth closely around tbem, to blanch the stems or, better yet, bleach them between boards. Never do this in wet weather, or the sterns will rust. South of the Ohio, Celery can remain in the ground all winter with a little protection. In the North plants should be taken up and stacked closely together, with soil firmed around the roots, and kept in the cellar or a pit for use. Winter Queen—Grows thick, solid and heavy stalks and iar-jre heart. A clo«e, compact grower and when blanch- ed is creamy white. Pkt., 10c; oz., 25c; lb., $2-50.
