Orange Groves need very little work
at this time of the year, for a late stir
ring of the soil tends to create a new
growth which has no time to harden up
before frost comes. s,dsia ..ssI, .,,,,1 y.
Oats and rye may be planted, and a
small patch is necessary for green food
for chickens during the winter, adto
English peas of some varieties may be
sowed the Mcneil prolific is considered
the best in Columbia county.
Sow seeds of radishes, lettuce, cress,
and other quick growing vegetables in
well fortified soil. Carrots do well and
will last all through the summer with
out spelling. Cabbage and caulifower
plants can be set out to advantage. Our
vegetable growers should cultivate more
asparagus, it sells at high prices in the
spring, at the north. @&
Some people pull the dead leaves off
the sugar cane, but we think there is
little use in doing so; it may make the
cane little sweeter, but it gets much
harder to crush, and the operation Of
going through the cane patch is tedious.
Those who grow sugar cane should buy
the tools for cutting them, as they have
in other countries.
Cattle raisers having turned out their
cattle for the winter, settlers should see
that their fences are in good order.
If you wish to grow strawberries, they
should be planted this month. A Cali
fornian gives the following method of
planting them, which we think would be
advantageous on high dry land;
First cultivate thoroughly and pull
verize the soil to the depth desired.
Then. take boards or saw mill slabs.
With a two-inch augur bore holes in
slabs Is inches apart, alternating from
one side of the slab to the other. Place
the slabs some 16inches apart, and then
with trowel or dibble, set the strawberry
plants in the augur holes. Cultivate be-
tween slabs. The boards will retain
moisture during the dry. hot weeks. Mr..
Smally late last spring set out four dozen
in this way and during the summer lost
but three, and those three are still alive.
The balance are growing thrifty. lie
