No Necessity Of Sending to KaIa-

etable.

(By G. b. wALDRoN. Horticulturist.
North Dakota Agricultural College.)
The demand for this excellent vege-
table has become so great during tho
the last few years that importations
from points as far east as Kalamazoo.
Mich, are constantly made in order
to keep this demand supplied. Trials
made at this station as well az by q
few private growers in the state have
demonstrated that there IL no neces-
sity for this. but. instead, that our
own conditions are so favorable that
we may amply supply Jul own mar
ket and successfully compete in city
markets that are not too far removed.
Tho necessity for deep and thorough
cultivation must be especially urged
in connection with successful celery
culture. Only locations having a very
deep soil should be selected. For
early planting the seed should be
sown in hotbeds in March. The plants
start very slowly, but afterwards grow
with great rapidity. For dwarf sorts
and early markets the ground should
be marked in perfectly straight rows
four feet apart. Tho variety Of celery
for early planting should be preferably
the White Plume, q self-blanchinG
sort. The plants may be set seven or
eight inches apart in the rows any
time after the middle Of May. or when
