Strawberry Culture.

The mode of planting will depend
very much on the method Of culture to
be adopted, and the variety chosen
IF grown for market, of course horse
culture will be used, and the rows will
need to be as much as thirty inches a.
part, to allow pillow or small cultiva-
tor to be used between them. Then if
the soil is strong, and it is intended to
keep the plants in hills, they will need
to be set as muchas fifteen inches apart
i'm the rows. But if as is more common,
the slmatted row" system is adopted
allowing the plants to form runners
lengthwise the rows, but not in the
alleys between, about a foot apart will
answer. In garden culture, where the
tilling is done by hand, the rows need
not be over two feet apart.
Choice of varieties depends good
deal on the character of the soil and
whether the fruit is designed for fam
lily or market use. If the soil is clayey
and just Right, and the fruit designed
for city market, would plant freely
of such large and snowy varieties as
Jucunda, Agriealturist, Fillmore, and
Seth Boyden, giving them the best of
culture in hills. The superior size
and quality of the fruit would be sure
to secure for it very high prices. And
even for home use part of the supply
may be. Of this class, where the land is
suitable.
But for lighter and poorer soils, and
for ordinary family purposes and es-
pecially for farmers gardens, where
the culture is apt to be neglected-the
best varieties are Wilson, Green Pro-
life, and Ida. On light sandy soil I
find the Wilson desirable, as sure and
early berry of good size and fair quail
ty. but very soon gone. Green Prolific
is a trif1e later and holds on longer, be-
sides being good and productive, anda
very vigorous and hardy plant. Ida4
have not tested SO fully, but it premises
finely as to, preductixeness and quality
the size trife less than the other
two. The Green Prolific and the Ida
are especially adapted for the ''no-cul-
ture" system Of growing strawberries
letting the'vines ran all together and
bear what they can for two or three
years, then under. The Wilson is, per-
haps, better than any other, adapted to
all soils and modes of culture.
Port Tobacco times, and Charles County advertiser. (Port Tobacco, Md.) 1845-1898, 1873-07-10
6te ,farm,
Rearing Stock.

We cannot forego the expression of
a desire that is ever present to our
mind, of seeing our farmer friends pay
ing more regard and taking deeper
interest in stock-raising. Let us now
plead for the lives of the best calves,
particularly cow calves, and beg our
friends to save them for. at least two
years from the butcher. They will be
well repaid for generous treatment of
these young animals for two years, and
better, for three years. Save the best
cow calves, and breed at the proper
time to improved bulls. Save the best
eve lambs to supply the places of old
inferior ewes to be sold this autumn.
Every two years get the services of a
buck superior or fully equal to its pre-
decessor, and you will soon have a SUI
perior flock of sheep. The same in re-
gard to hogs. We would suggest that
every farmer who has a fine mare. and
can dispense. with her services for a
month or so, should breed her to some
superior blood horse Of high pedigree,
good points and large size, and fine ac-
ton, and the produce will be worthy
the expense and inconvenience, for a
useful, serviceable horse of all work
will be obtained, or it may be an ami
NAL worth thousands of dollars. No
such ''good luck" will result from
breeding worthless mare to-a barrel
of corn runt, or beefy over-groWn
monster. We despise these picayune
stations, and cannot either admire or
believe in those who only boast of the
enormity of size and weight. If they
were grown to be eaten, then, like Short
Horn cattle, the larger and heavier
they were the better; but until we be-
come hippopohagous people we must
decline asserting to the propriety of
breeding to these elephantic beasts
The medium sized, active, enduring
sinewy, high mettled animal is what
the people want for all purposes, the
pillow, the saddle, and quick draft on
the light family carriage.
Why should people of the South and
Cuc MIuuIC bOIucI OCItGcS pay SGCu I'LL
mense sums annually for Western and
Northern horses and mules from Ken
lucky and the Northwest? We can
raise the supply needed, better suited
to our climate and work, at small cost
of either labor or food. 1t takes no
more to raise horse or nude than to
grow an OK, or five hogs two years old,
and the horse or mule will at three
years old be worth twice as much as
the OK at same age, or the hogs at two
years old. Acouple of horses or mules
raised every year on each farm would
supply our home demand. On many
farms half or more of the profits go to
keep up the stock of horses and work
cattle, and often on such farms there
is wasted more food than would sub
sist enough young stock to supply the
wants of the farm. But our planters
and farmers ought to look to breeding
horses and mules and raising oxen, not
only to furnish working stock for their
individual wants, but as source of
yearly revenue to swell largely the re-
ceipts of the farm. Let it be remem-
bered that the blooded horse is admit
ted to be more capable of resisting dis
ease, will last longer, and do better SER
vice than the common breeds.-Mary-
land Farmer. a ley 81 g
