BlANCHING CELERY.

Quick Method of Tying and Earth
ing Up Used by Market Gardeners
The most common method Of all for
blanching celery on q small scale Is
that of banking with soil, and it is by
this method that the finest flavor can
be obtained. Where the plants are
set in single rows the soil can often
be partially thrown up by means OF
a plow, or, better, by a celery hitler.
There are several forms Of this ma
chine, but they all work on one prin-
ciple-that of diagonally set surface
to throw up the soil. Before the plow
or banking machine is used small
amount of dirt must be placed around
the plants by hand to hold them up In
position while the earth is being
thrown around them. This may also
be accomplished by tying up the plants
with paper twine.
Instead of tying each plant by knot
ting around it short piece Of string
fasten the end of the string around
the first plant in row, then pass to
the second plant without cutting or
breaking the string While the out
side leaves of the second plant are
brought up together by the left hand
carry the string once around by allow
ing it to run between the thumb and
finger Of the right hand and so on
from plan. to plant until whole row
is held up without breaking the string
and by tying it at the ends only.
This work is greatly facilitated by
strapping to the right forearm tin
can in which the ball Of cord is placed,
the inside end of the string being de-
livered through hole in the bottom
of the can. Another very good method
of holding the celery up while the earth
is being placed around it is by tempo
rarily setting up boards, which are re-
moved as soon as the soil is in posi-
ton.
