Cabbage and other plants Intended
for the garden should be transplanted
once and their leaves shortened before
being finally set out. This makes them
stocky. A second removal does not in
jure them. i'H
The Dent varieties of corn are less
hardy than the Flint varieties, and
need to be planted on rich, warm soil.
The grain of the former Is more porous
and more liable to injury from water ut
planting or when ripened. -a"-
Corn for fodder may be sown, or
rather drilled, until the 1st of July. 1t
is a good plan to select an early sweet
variety-the Minnesota Early is as good
as any. Drill in double rows wide
enough apart to allow the cultivator to
run through.
There is more difference in men than
in the soil they till. Place good wide
awake farmer in one of the most I'M
promising agricultural neighborhoods,
and he will not only make his own
farm better, but also increase the value
fall the land in the vicinity.
Very bad accounts have been receiv-
ed Of the ascertained yield of wheat in
some Of the northern areas of South
Australia. Wininowie is reported to
have returned only IL pounds to the
acre; Baroota, q bushels, and Telowie,
.. bushels, while thousands of acres
were not worth reaping.
Delaware peach growers are to CO.
operate this year to prevent glut in
the market. One of the practical means
to this end is to provide fruit inspec-
tor, who will throw out all inferior
fruit. If only the best is marketed, the
demand will be increased, and the pro-
ducers will get better prices.
The California barley crop is this year
reported less than an average. Califor-
MIA is one of the five or six sections
where barley is largely grown, and its
failure there will affect the price. Less
barley than usual has generally been
sown on account of the high price of
oats the past two or three years.
