The Vegetable Garden.

Buests says in his Garden Manuel, in re.
lation to the vegetable garden, the following
"This is the most necessary" that is the
vegetable garden, if not the most important
portion of the garden to the majority of our
housekeepers. We may subsist without
flowers, and even small supply of choice
fruits, but without a supply of fresh vegcta-
bles, in our sultry climate, we should fare
very indilferently. Simple as the cultivation
of culinary crops is esteemed by many, yet
to raise choice vegetables, requires little
skill and attention" We will add few
items as to soil and situation of a good
garden.
Without rich soil, either naturally so, or
improved by cultivation, and the application
Of enriching material, we need not hope for
good crops. Clean, deep and thorough cul-
ture are the means. There should be a reg
u!ar rotation of crops-that is, no two crops
of similar nature should be planted in sue.
cession on the same soil To facilitate this
rotation, the garden should be divided into
squares of nearly uniform sizc-say into six
squares, with cross walks of from four to six
feet.
SITUATION AND FORMATION.
The selection of a suitable situation for the
vegetable garden, is one of the most impor-
tant points to secure early and productive
crops. 1t should have a gentle inclination
towards the east or southeast, that it may
have all the advantages Of the morning sun.
1t is great consideration with the gardener
to have vegetables as early in the season as
possible. To accomplish this the garden
should be sheltered from the north or north
west winds. Large, spreading trees should
be avoided, as their shade is injurious to the
crops and their roots impovcrish the SOIL
The best ground is a dry, sandy loan; if the
situation is suitable, however, the soil can be
improved by subsoiling, or trenching and
draining. The size will depend on the num-
Der in the family, varying from quarter to
an acre; half an acre well cultivated, will
produce sufficient vegetables for family of
fifteen throughout the year.

The SUNrLowER.-The sunhower is des-
tined to be one of our greatest agricultural
products; yet but few know its value |
have raised and tested it, and think no far
mer who has much land should do without
it, for feeding various animals, and the oil it
produces. 1t has yielded with me from 90
to 100 bushels per acre, making manure the
same as for corn. plant in drills from three
to four feet apart, and scattered the seed
about six inches distant in rows, using from
four to five quarts per acre.
When ripe as the large heads begin to shell
out, cut it up and leave it in rows to dry,
and when thoroughly cured draw it into the
barn, handling carefully and placing on an
airy scatfold When wanted the seeds will
nearly all shell out by throwing down, and
needs but little pounding. Clean in common
tanning mill.
One hundred pounds of the seed will yield
40 pounds of oil. had part fmy seed made
into oil at a common oil mill and used it for
burning lamps and tested il well for paint
Our house has been painted for long time
and wears fully equal to those where inseed
was used and the walls were left glossy, as
though little varnish had been used.
The oil cake is nearly equal to any other,
and there is nothing better to feed hens in
winter than sunfiowcT seed; they did not
know what it was at first, but by mixing it
with oats, they gradually grew fond of it and
produced eggs more abundantly than usually
on other food The seed is well known to
be good for horses and is worth fifty cents
bnshel 20 farmer ! hope they will test
this matter for themselves, and | am sure
they will find it profitable to raise their oil,
&C., as have done.

RooT Crops. are glad to learn that
root culture is gaining favor with most intel
ligent farmers. The advantages, indeed,
which results from devoting few acres to
such purposes are so striking, and add much
to the profit and economy Of every we'll con-
Quoted farm. The sugar beet, mangel wurt-
eel, ruta baga, and carrots, are all highly es.
tcemcd by cattle breeders both in this coun-
try and Europe. They are all excellent feed
for hogs, sheep, cattle and horses.
We would say to every farmer, raise roots
for stock If not prepared to raise many,
begin in small way and raise a few hun
dred bushels which can be obtained from half
an acre of land. We give in another column
an interesting discussion of the growing of
roots by the Dubuque Farmers Club.
