What Varieties of Strawberries to
Plant.

What Varieties of Strawberries to
Plant.
Orchard and Garden says: It is not an
easy matter to determine readily what
varieties of Strawberries to plant, even
though one knows just what he wants in a
variety. Descriptions do not always agree,
and the long list of standard sorts is be-
widering. The fact is, we are growing
too many varieties of strawberries. The
nurseryman is compelled to carry long
list in order to accommodate his customers;
but what is the use of growing three or
four varieties all of the same general char
acter, and season of ripening! Making
due allowance for difference Of soil and
location we might cut down the list, as Or
dinarily offered by nurserymea, so per
cent. and yet have more than enough. For
a nearby market there are few sorts that
will give better returns than Crescent, Bu-
bach o., Warfield, Miners Prolific, Mt.
Vernon and Cumberland. For shipment
one may do well in growing Champion,
Glendale, Candy, Capt. Jack and James
Wick. The last two sorts are but medium
in size but exceedingly firm. For large
size and snowy appearances grow Sharpless,
Candy, Cumberland, Jersey Queen and Blu
bach (5). The home grower prefers for his
table such varieties as Charles Downing,
Cumberland, Candy, etc., varieties Of fine
quality and at the same time productive.
To this list may be added, for delicious
flavor, Henderson, Belmont and Lenig's
xvbita hut thoU NOT nrOduCfiua Undnr
ordinary culture. We name only standard
sorts that have been fully tested, and hence
may be planted without hesitation.

Notes from the Experimental station


The Texas experimental station names the
following strawherrSes as the most reliable
for market purposes in Central Texas: The
Cloud, Charleston, Crescent, May King,
Wilson. Hoffman. Sucker State, Jessie
Sharpless and Capt. Jack.
Is the Charleston a synonym for some
other name more generally knowna
One assertion made in the notes on straw
berries in bulletin s will doubtless be quail
flied in the light of further experience, and
and this is, "Mulching Strawberries will not
pay in the south, and is not conducive to
their best growth" This assertion is too
broad, and will not be subscribed to by
cultivators in this section of the south.
Cyanogen and its use is thus alluded to
by Prof. A. j. Cook in bulletin No. So.
Michigan experimental station: every
collector of insects knows what a cyanide
bottle is. Such bottle has in its bottom a
lump of cyanide of potassium about the
size of hickory nut, which is covered with
a small quantity of plaster of paris. The
bottle, if kept tightly corked, will be full of
the cyanogen fumes, and any insect put
into it will die Immediately.
IF we place small piece Of cyanide of
potassium in a tin dish and pour on a little
diluted sulphuric acid, the deadly cyanogen
gas is speedily formed or liberated. and if
confined with insects or any other life,
brings speedy death. Our college museum
was in the old college hal, and various pests
would oftentimes attack the specimens l
would liberate the cyanogen as just stated,
and the escaping gas would frequently kill
the flies and other insects on the windows
outside the cases. or course, great care
must be taken with so deadly gas, and not
breathe it. 1t is so virulently poisonous
and so speedy in its action that no risk
should be taken. When exposed to it there
is no insect that can survive this noxious
substance. 1t is successfully used in Cali
fornia to destroy the scale insects that in
