CRcps FoR A DRAINED swlxp-A
muck wamp when drained makes e1.
ceIient grass land, and produces heavy
crops of hay. Timothy and red'top
suoceed best Oh such land and
dressing OF lime viii be very
useful. To drain a swamp, find the
direction in which the fail lies, and cut
a main ditch through it at least three
feet deep and four feet wide, scattering
the muck taken out of It evenly over
the ground, or else throwing II INTO q
ridge upon one side, SO as to MAKE
a solid road through #. Cross-drsins
should then be made at least two feet
wide and as deep as the main drain,
and it will be well to run q drain at the
foot of the high land at the head OF the
swamp to cut off any springs that may
flow from it. Care should be taksn In
burning off the fallen timber lest the
swamp muck may be set on fire, In
which case, In dry weather, the nfe
will shoulder for long time and do
considerable injury.
TRAIsINd ToMAToEs.-All lovers OF
this delicious fruit do not know how
TO giow them successfully. When the
plants are ready for the garden, make
q considerable hill Of good compost.
Chip manure is excellent, and quantity
of chicken manure is good. After the
hill Is made, drive long stake through
it. The training will require attention.
The plant will Immediately begin to
sucker, or throw side shoots. Just above
each leaf These must be cut of, and
then the plant viii grow up vigorously.
Tie it to a sake and do not be afraid to
use knife. Keep on cutting each
stem that appears In the axil Of q leaf,
and keep on tieing. The first bearing
branches come directly from the body
of the plant. Remember this training
has to be continued as long as the plsut
bears Thus trained, the fruit is super
ior in size. quality, and favor, besides
being less liable to drop of.
