Celery is one of the crops which can
usually be profitably treated with eX-

and be correspondence low in potash
and phosphoric acid. A good fertilizer
mixture to apply in this case would
consist of 200 pounds ammonium sui

be averaged TO suit the needs of the
particular soils. Soils which have
been leached good deal will likely be
deficient in potash, and this element
should be, of course. more literally
supplied.
The early crop is set as soon as the
danger of frost in the spring is over,

ditions from June 10-July ,. 1t can b.
set either in single or double rows but
the double row is usually to be pre-

pense in the blanching process. TIL
single rows should be about three feet
apart and plants about four inches
apart in the row. Double rows should
have four feet of space between the
inside rows, and each two rows should
have about six to eight inches of space
between them.
Cultivation should be frequent, bu'
early. Keep the weeds down ana Keep
the soil well stirred up between the
rows but do not cultivate toe deeply

Production Of Celery.

Good drainage is fully as important
as rich soil and plenty of moisture
in celery growing. Celery must have
a plentiful supply of easily avaiiabie
plant food in order to sustain the
heavy. rank growth it makes. 1t will
not withstand drouth well. Give a
celery match good drainage, either by
tiles or open bitches. Whatever
drainage is used be sure that Til
outlets are open and ample, so that
an excess of water can be got rid u
speedily. says Northwest farmstead'
Under some conditions complies
system OF UNDERLYING is utilized not
only for drains in removing the sur
nlus moisture in time of flood. but for
forming a subirrigation system in
time of drouth. The porous clay tile
works equally we'll either for drain
age or irrigation, and may be used for
either, as occasion may demand.
our greatest celery producing sec
tions are reclaimed swamps and
much soil seems peculiarly suited to
the needs of the celery plant 1t
should not he assumed. however, that
the crop cannot be grown successfully
except under these conditions. In re-
cent years marked success has been
with celery grown under irrigation in
soils which are light and cemparative-
" sandy. The secret Of this, of course
lies in very heavy applications OF BARR
yard manure, and then simplifying nlen-
w of irrigation water to support the
rank growth and enable tiie plant to
feed heavily on The fertility supplied
by the manure.
Land for celery is best prepared Ia
the fall when deep blowing and sub
soiling will generally be adv isable.
