4 friend who has raised strawberries
in this neighborhood to "good accep-
tance," gives us the following directions
for their cultivation /:
Time 10 Piant.-Where plants can
be obtained near at hand, SO that they
need be out of the ground but short
time before setting, preference is given to
the latter part of July or the first Of Au-
gust. Otherwise plant early in the
spring, IS soon as the plants begin to
grow. Plant in a rainy day if possible;
if not, always in tho evening.
Preparation of Soil and Plantiag.-
Spade up the soil deep and fine: ridge
the ground into rows two and one-half
feet apart and six to ten inches high
Then trench along the middle of the
row wide enough to set the plant and
deep enough to have the ground incline
to the plant on each side, SO as to catch
and hold the rain. Set the plants in
this trench in the same manner as you
would plant cabbages, say twelve to eigh-
teen inches apart, only do not press the
earth too closely about the roots. Let
the hole be large enough SO thai the
roots will lie loose and natural. Unless
the ground is quite moist, pore little
water in with each root at the time of
setting; and water the plants every even
ing till the plants getweil to growing, I'M
less the weather is showery. Light, san
dy soils are preferable for the strawberry
if well mulched. After planting. fill up
between the rows with light stable ma
nure or straw from an old stack. This
makes good mulch, keeps the ground
moist, checks the growth of weeds, and
having become well rotted by the fol-
lowing spring, is a good fertilizer. Let
the runners grow and keep the needs out.
This latter item is important. If the
weeds are allowed TO grow, there is no
use expecting good fruit. Your plants
will quit their business in sheer disgust
at such treatment, and you will be dis
gusted with your crop. From the first of
August till snow flies your plants will
| cover the rows just thick enough to do
/ well.
Protection, etc.-In the latter part OF
October. or before the hard frosts have
killed the leaves, cover your vines with
chaff or clean straw, two or three IN
ches deep after setting. Chaff is pref
cradle if convenient. as it does not reed
to be removed in the spring, and is fine
fertiIizing mulch. Avoid stable litter for
covering. About the first of May rake
off the coarser part Of the straw and
tread it down between the rows. The
balance will settle and the pl hts will
shoot through it. This leaves the ground
clean, and your berries resting on it will

Council soon pave the streets.
Remaining on the Key CITY on her
down trip, got off at Prairie du Chen,
and have been looking over this ancient
town. Prairie du Chen has three insti-
tutioas-one personal, one historical, one
scientific. The personal one is JoHN
LAWYER, the efficient Freight Supt. of
the Nil. and p. du Chen Railroad; the
historical is Fort Crawford, the sight of
whose low, white walls and deserted
quarters thrusts a memory of the past
right into the life of the busy present !;
the scientific is the famous ico-boat which
lies stranded in the street, short dis
tauce from the depot.
This town is full Of contradictions. 1t
looks as if it had been discharged from
an old Queens Arm shot gun, at long
range and scattered badly, or perhaps
more as if it was n good sized town

stuck into n low, dark hole, which is not

Il has hotels not excelled in the State,
except BY the Newhall House, while the
Courier office, the only printing Office
here, is in the kitchen part of an old, low,
wooden buil ling, which was doubtless
erected half n century ago. The dapper

and moro densely settled, fruit of every

look so slick as that of your neighbor.
who rakes off his vines as clean as
door-yard. but when in June following
his vines may have withered in the dry
weather, or his berries, if he have any,
are burrowed in the dirt, your vines will
grow strong and thrifty, with their roots
protected from the sun, and your fruit
will lie blushing on clean beds of straw
Still, as the plants grow, keep the weeds
out. As the fruit begins to ripen the
runners will start. These must be pinch
cd off if you would have large, perfect
fruit. 1t requires a good deal of labor,
bit 1t pays; the whole vigor of tie plant
being thrown into the fruit.
The advantages of the above method
of cultivation are these By cultiya-
ting in raised rows, the plants stand
drouth better than by flat culture; they
are not so liable to winter-kill, because
the water, if any, stands between the
rows not re aching the roots; the fruit is
more easily gathered, and the runners
an d weeds mole readily extracted.
For those who are too lazy to keep
off the runners, or cannot spare time. a
good way is to plant in beds four feet
wide; rows two feet apart, and plants
one foot apart in the rows. Such bed
should be raised little, so that the water
will not stand on it in winter or early
spring. Mulch well with chaf or cut
straw. Avoid saw dust for mulch, rs it
breeds worms or affords Judgment for
them. After The fruit is all gathered,
select moist time and rake the bed
thorough, with an iron rake. This re-
moves all weak and stunted roots, and
thins out the plants SO that the new ran
ners will fill the beds by fall. In this
way bed may be kept in good order
year after year. Air-slacked lime and
wood ashes worked into tae soil or used
sparingly for top dressing, is good
fertilizer.
Varieties.-On this subject it is well
to speak only from experience. There is
only one variety thoroughly tried in this
vicinity that combines in itself the quail
ties Of large and uniform size, good fla
vor, hardness and proificn ess of yield,
and that is Wilson's albany. With
good cultivation, every plant of this va
riety will be loaded with large, perfect
fruit. An inch in diameter will be com
mon size, while many berries will be much
larger.
The smaller varieties, such rs Hovey's
Seeding, Early Scarlet, etc. are too well
known here t, need comment. The
Triumph de Grande is said to be fully
equal, if not superior to the Wilson by
some cutivators, but this has yet to be
proven here; while much is hoped for
from the Tribune Strawberries. Tie
Wilson takes the lead in the New York
market; also at st. Paul. 1t ranks
among the acid fruits as do all the large,
full bearers yet known, but when allow
ed to ripen fully. turning to rich, dark
red, it is berry of excellent flavor. 1t
is well to renew the Wilson by spading
up the old plants and setting new plants
once in two or three years.
