Small Fruits OH the Farm.

The first thing is the selection of the
ground. If possible, plat that slopes
10 the East or South is preferable, and
if it is protected on the North and West
SO much the better We do not like
steep hillside, especially for small fruits,
but. if possible, want it sloping suffi-
GENTLY to drain well. If this can not
be secured to obtain the best results,
artificial drainage will have to be re-
sorted to. EF
While poor soil will raise some fruit
and by using manure around the
plants much economy in fertilizers can
be used-still. if possible, it will always
pay to select a naturally rich soil. Or
if this can not be done, an application
Of well-rotted manure should be given
1t is better of course that much of the
preparation should be done in the fall,
but at this time we can only do the best
we can at the time. The ground should
be well plowed and narrowed thor
Oughly, to get it in as good condition as
possible. As in all other farm opera
tions it pays to make the work of pre-
sparation as thorough as possible.
We believe that in small fruit culture

oughly incorporated with the soil. The
roots of all plants (where they are to
remain any length of time in the same
place) are certain to penetrate through
the soil in every direction, and when
Gas is often done) the manure is applied
simply around the roots when the plants
are first set out, it will stimulate
heavy growth at first or when the ma
nure is first reached by the roots; but
as the majority of the roots Especially
The small rootlets or feelers) get be-
yond the manure and come in contact
with the purer soil outside of the area
covered by the manure, then there is
stoppage in growth and consequent
damage to the plants. And again,
when manure is simply applied imme-
diatelv around the roots in too large
quantity (and this is nearly always the
case when applied in this way), it
causes too strong growth of wood at
the expense of fruit and hardness An
application of wood ashes is very bene-
fetal, and should be applied if possible.
We prefer to apply all the ashes we can
save to our fruits, beth large and small,
in preference to using them in any 9TH
er way, and if due care is taken with
what is made in an ordinary family,
sufficient quantity can be secured to
give all the fruit generally raised on the
farm dressing.
Understand at the outset that | am
simply writing for the benefit of the
farmer who. we think. ought to raise
small fruits of all kinds for the use of
his family, and not for those who make
the raising of small fruits for mar
ket specially. claim that each farm
er can raise all kinds of small fruits far
cheaper than he can buy. In fact. l
have always held that the farmer ought,
by all means. to raise all that is con-
sumed in the way of edibles. and he can
do so far cheaper than he can possibly
buy thcm,-N J. s., IN Pratrie
