UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE. y
GEORGE W. RUGG, OF NEWARK, OHIO.
cELERY-BLEACHI-m.
SPECIFICATION forming part f Letters Patent N'O. 412,672, dated October 8, 1889.
Application filed April 2, 1889. Serial No. 305,704. (No model.)
To all whom #may concern.-
Be it known that I, GEORGE W. RUGG, of Newark, in the county of Licking and State of Ohio, have in vented certain new and useful Improvements in Celery-Bleachers; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of theinvention, such `as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to Inake and use it, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form part of this specification. y
My invention relates to an improvement in Ycelery-bleachers; and it consists in continu- 'ous rolls of paper or other suitable material have attained their growth by applying continuous rolls of paper to opposite sides of the rows of plants, and thus do away with the hilling up with dirt or the application of a separate and distinct bleacher to each plant,
as has heretofore been done. l
Figure l is a side elevation of a bleacher which embodies my invention. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same.
The celery plants are set out in rows in the usual manner and allowed to grow until they have attained or nearly attained their full growth. To opposite sides of each row are then applied a continuous roll of paper or other suitable material A, and which paper is of just suflicient width to reach nearly up to the tops of the plants, as shown. In order to strengthen the paper at its upper edge, it may be doubled or folded back upon itself for any suitable width, as shown at D; but this is not absolutely necessary. The paper should reach from the ground up to that point upon the plant where the bleaching is to take place.
In order to hold the paper closely in contact with each plant and thus shut out the light, a suitable wire or other clamp C is slipped down over the top edge of the paper, as shown, so as to hold the paper tightly in place. The form of clamp used is immaterial, for all that is necessary is toclose the paper tightly against opposite sides of the plant.
Heavy brown paper will answer all ordinary purposes; but any other suitable material which will keep awayV the light from the plants will answer equally as well, and hence I do not coniine myself to any kind of material nor any form of clamp.
Having thus described my invention, I claim- A celery-bleacher composed of two continuous rolls or strips of paper which are placed upon opposite sides of each row of the plants,
