Celery for the Summer eoarders,

Up to few years ago wa maid but
slight attention to the c.iarv nlant. al.
tnough our main line lay along fancy
vegetables. The few plants we tried
for home use did so we'll We introduced
| more and more each year. The last
| three or four years we have been mar
keting considerable quantities. The
variety is probably the most importan,
| factor to be discussed. For summer wn
have used Mammoth White Plume and
| Golden Self-Blanchiny almost exclu-
| Sively. They ale not c;,celled for
market by any other variety that we
have tried.
When the plants get a foothold in the
new soil. rich manure and Il h:eh-grade
fertilizer are spread around their roots
| AS they grow earth is gradually drawn
| up around the bases of the stalks until
they are ready for bleaching. Thea
| boards about Il foot wide are placed
| close to the stalks on each side of the
row and held together by wire clasps.
The celery is generally ready to sell by
July 30.
Our farm is about six miles from a
prominent summer resort Three times
week we wash and trim from Is to
100 stalks and with tasteful array of
| other vegetables and fruits 60 our
round Of summer camps and cottages.
The celery in its cool, fresh crispness
never fails to SELL Our customers are
the better class of city people and ara
satisfied only with the best, at any
price. 1t is a point in our program to
promise to be around on Mondays.
Wednesdays and Saturdays and then
TO be there in spite Of all hinorances or
discomforts. Several times we have
gone in a pouring rain. but were am
ply repaid by the trust of our people.
They always wait for that celery
man." Our celery brings good prices
and never has full-sized stalk sold for
less than cents. Afte: our hotbeds
are clear of summer seedlings. we seed
item again for the late or winter crops
AS to variety, we 1nd Golden Self
Blanching and Winter Queen to be the
best adapted to the purpose. The Self
Blanching plant has short, thick stalks
OF beautiful creamy color, while the
Queen is a tall. pure white variety.
The transplanting is done about July
l. and then the care IS much the same
as that of the early crop. except that It
is manured much heavier as it has a
shorter time to grow aud must be
rushed to full extent. The late celery
is allowed to grow until about Novem-
ber l. with scarcely mora hi!Iing than
will hold the stalks in plpce. 1t is then
taken up with plenty of it's own earth
and packed closely together in Il dark,
cool cellar. BY Thanksgiving it has
blcached enough and IS ready for the
holiday market. AS fast as it is or
dered the outside stems and roots are
taken off. and although after this pro-
cess the punches appear much smaller
it brings the same price IS the larger
summer stalks. We finl cc,cry to be
the best paying crop we raise and We
intend to increase our next years set

IN THE WOODS.
How Woman klay Enjoy Camping in
the Wilderness.

Kcna y. Phillips writing in the July
Outing says: Tho average woman knows
- little about the woods that the woods
do rot appeal to her. One does not
have to look far to see the reason for
TINS. as the average girl is taught. among
other things. that it Is not good form
and. IN fact. that it is more or less
'tomboyish' to 20 into the woods She
is given to understand that the forest is
for boys ard not for girls; except in
cases where the Sunda y-schooI picnic
goes to the woods bodily.
This is Il wrong view and an unhealthy
one. There is no doubt i'm my mind that
1t would be better for the growing girls
II they were encouraged to indulge more
in outdoor sports. l know for my own
part that one only has to learn to enjoy
ones self in order to create a longing
for the wilderness.
As far as my experience goes the lone
illness of the woods is largely imaginary,
and in reality Nature is never lonesome
after one has learned her ways
The average summer campers who 20
out for few weeks or days usually
start wrong. and instead of resting and
enjoying themselves they succeed jim
wearing themselves ont and so come
home exceedingly tired accusing the
wilderness of being lonesome place
that is unkind to them: place of bugs
and stickers. of mysterious noises and
crawling snaky things
This. however is not the fault of the
wilderness, but state Of affairs due en-
tircly to ignorance ON the part of the
campers. How can they expect to know
the out-of-doors in a wee... To know it
intimately one must study it for years.
and even then one cannot learn il by
only going in the sunshiny weather
Each day and night. each variety of
weather has its own particular charm
and one must see it all to get the good
of it
Given a suitable outfit, a woman is
as free to 90 and come in the wilderness
as man. This is the first item in learn
ing to enjoy the wild places. because it
takes away the worry that Is occasioned
by costume that does not fit the re-
quirements of the work in hand
Given personal comfort the next i'm
portart item to consider is proper food
and its preparation together with COM
Portable shelter.
Experience is the best teacher to study
under in this matter as it is In others.
Making camp comfortable and cooking
over an outdoor fire are matters more
easily managed.
In regard to cooking: bear in mind that
the best results are always obtained over
small fire that has burned down to
bed of coais Also remember that
this fire should never be built against a
tree or other obstacle. because if the
wind does not have a free unbroken
thaacc to blow across your fire you will
