OeE lu u oooO IA ANAAh
Those who contemplate setting ont vine;
should do so early, or as soo SIS the condi'
ton Of the ground permit, Strawberries
are very partial to q cool season and de
light in plenty Of moisture, and TOR that
reason no time should be lost in transplant
ing the runners. Although many persons
prefer to Vait until the young plants have
made some growth Of leaf in the spring.
vet the best results have been obtained Oh
sandy soils when the slants are placed IL
position before the crowns have started
The young vines Of other fruits may De
treated in the same manner, especially 10
those sections where the srmmer Is usually
DRY and but o small proportion Of rain is
secured. In q few weeks more the middle
of the day will be very WARN, and the
earlier the plants can be Put out the better
they will endure the heat Of the sun and q
dry soil.
Seeds of tomatoes, egg pleuts. water
melons, csntaloupes and other piants that
are liable to be injured may be planted 10
soil placed in empty egg shells, and when
the proper time arrives may be placed 10
their positions withou! being disturbed
from the shells, as they will break the
shells as they grow larger. This method
Is an EASY and excellent one for securing
a Few plants for an early supply.
Peas, gale, reddish and lettuce endure
slight frosts, end the seeds may be placed
in The ground as early C. preferred, though
Iopy psr;ods of wet weather Esy cause
some Of them to rot. Parsley, beets, car
rots and parsnips sre hardy, and the SEEDS
SLOW in terminating. They cannot De put
