If an early crop IS to be grown from seeds, the latter must be started indoors in boxes about the last of February, the plants being set in the ground, six inches apart, in May. The crop should be ready in August. Celery for win- ter may be grown from seeds started in the open ground in late April, but it is advisable to have a seed bed and to transplant the seedlings to the open field when large enough. It is well to cut off the lower half of the roots at transplanting time, and firming the soil around the plants is very important. GOLDEN PHENOMENAL The general characteristics are those of Golden Plume, but it is de- cidedly taller and the stalks are much longer to the joint. Free from any strings, fine flavor and excellent quality. Pkt., 15c; H oz., 50c; 1 oz., 90c; 14 lb., ^ GOLDEN PLUME, OR WONDERFUL It is similar to Golden Self Blanching, but matures earlier, is larger and more blight, and blanches in half the time. It possesses all the ex- cellent qualities of that well known celery, and we believe it is the most profitable sort to grow.
