FARMERS COLUMN.
New England Farmer.


To raise green peas in perfection requires
good garden land; dry, sandy loan will
bring them earliest, but in time Of drought
the quality Of the crop upon such land will
be very inferior still, since earliness is very
desirable, IL usually pays TO risk small
piece Of early peas upon poor, sandy soil,
and to depend upon better land for the later
srop, II should also be observed that the
hard varieties, such as Dan 0'Rourke and
Black.eyed Marrow, will thrive on much
poorer soil than the sweeter green sorts,
such as the Advancer and the Champion Of
England, which require rather rich land to
produce them n perfection. Peas being
perfectly harly, may be sown as soon as
the land will work mellow; sometimes this
can be done in March, but usually about
April 10. The tender green sorts should
not, however, be sown too early, for the
seeds viii. sometimes fail in cold wet weather.
1t is usual TO SOW the peas by hand in rows
three feet apart, using about six pecks pei
acre of the dwarf sorts. The longer vines o.
the Marrow and Champion require rows
four feet apart, and only about bushel o
seed per acre. The manure for peas usually
spread along the flrrow from the cart and
covered lightly with the hoe before sowing
the seed, which is then covered with a rake
or hoe about haitian inch deep. The manure
should be as fine as possible to get it.

Cultivation of Strawberries Under
GLASS.

Miss II. II. Trimble, of West Chester, who
has been very successful in the production
Of hot house grapes for a rumber years.
met with the loss of her vines last summer
from The raynses Of the phylloxera. With
extensive green houses and forcing facilities
at hand, she decided to engage in the raising
of strawberries and tomatoes during the
period necessary TO grow new grape vines,
and has the past winter been remarkably
successful in her new venture. The varieties
Of strawberries selected were the Sharpless,
Charles Downing and Cumberland, the
plants being placed in boxes, five or six
inches in depth, which were arranged on
the shelving Of the hot houses. The tomato
vines were planted on the floor and carefully
trained up the sides Of the building. New
York furnished the best market, the straw
berries bringing an average Of So per quart
while the tomatoes realized so cents per
pound. The prices were well-maintained
throughout the winter, the severity Of the
season preventngSouthorn fruit from getting
into the market as early as usual.
