Various soilsrequire different depths as
to their predominating characters, as of
clay or sand, and again the season of the
year, or rather the condition of the tenn
perature they may have to contend with,
degree ofcOld or heat, moisture or drouth,
has everything to do with the proper
depth you should plant.
All seeds, so far as possible, should be
sown by drills, of which we have several
excellent makes. The advantages of reg
ularity of depth, even distribution and
saving of seed are matters OF great i'm
portar ce, to say nothing of the amount
of ground that can be sown in day,
which is a great saving OF time.
In the setting OF plants knowledge of
how, where and when is Indispensable.
Whether deep, as with cabbage and cauli-
flower, or shallow, as with lettuce and
celery in hill, on the level, or in furrow,
all contributes to or retracts from the re-
suits of the crop.
When to set must depend on the condi-
ton of the weather and soil With a
proper temperature for immediate
growth, plants will form newrootlets and
start in twenty-four hours, when under
proper conditions, on the other hand they
may stand for week, fit subject for
the prey of insects when the conditions
are unfavOrable.
Cultivation should begin as soon as the
young seedlings are we'll up, or in the
case of plants set you may begin in few
days. After each rain, as soon as suffi-
GENTLY dry, stir the soil andyou will never
be troubled with weeds. Promptness in
this matteri is often the difference between
success and iailure-Southern Guilt

Gardening for Market.


from the various sources at our com
mand Too few cultivators properly I'M
derstand the influence that is exerted
upon the crop growth through the
application of manure orfertilizers to get
the best results.
With this understanding of the instinct
i've adoption OF roots to material which
could furnish them with food, we should
apply our manure at such depths and
places as we would wish the development
of these feeding roots. 1t also shows the
necessity of rich soils for close planting
in our gardens The farther the roots
have to per etrate the soil in search of
food, the fewer they number, and while a
plant may flourish with great extent of
roots, another may equally as we'll with
short roots; by their being more numer-
Gus, the aggregate absorbing surface
would amount to about the same in
both. Therefore we see the quantity of
root development is Influenced by the
richness of our soils. Hence the fallacy
of applying manure in the hill with most
crops, as is practiced by some, the result
OF which is to stimulate vigorous
growth of plant during it's early life,
which must, in the after growth, be sup
ported from some source, and unless the
soil is thoroughly enriched over the entire
surface, that demand is not met, and the
plant resents the stint by refusing to
produce it's fruits or grain in that pro-
portion.
Stable and yard manure is considered
by many complete manure, and as such
indispensable for market gardening, but
it has been demonstrated that a cOmbina-
ton of stable manure, and commercial
fertilizers have and do invariably pro-
duce the best, earliest, and consequently
the most profitable crops.
With mineral fertilizers and those SO
treated to be soluble, there is usually
sufficient moisture in the soil and from
ton, and render them available as plant
food. On the occurrence Of a dry atmos-
phere, hot suns or wind, the surface rap
idly dries, and evaporation begins; the
atmosphere robs our soil of it's moisture
but through capillarity the displace-
ment of moisture is Immediately supplied
from the store below. Now the point in
the application OF fertilizers is that the
portion held in solution lin the water of
the soiD is constantly working out
chemically for us in the soil, both mineral
and perhaps some organic bodies which
feed the plant.
In the preparation of our soils and the
planting of seed is required keen percep,
ton and thorough understanding of
the conditions necessary for the germina
ton of the different varieties. What
effect the varying temperature of spring
will produce, what degree of cold is re-
quired to kill the embryo. in the soil with
the different conditions OF moisture, will
be found valuable aid in affording the
knowledge that immediate replanting is
necessary, which will be a saving Of time.

Dried Persimmons.


A new method of handling the Japa-
nese persimmon has lately come to our
notice, which, if correct, will greatly en-
large the possibility OF marketing that
excellent fruit. The San Francisco Chron-
icle speaks of the matter thus: every
few people are aware of the fact that the
Japanese persimmon, when dried, is one
OF the most delicious fruits imaginable
Those who are acquainted with this fruit
know that it must be fully ripe when
picked otherwise the flavor will not be
what it should. But the perfectly ripe
persimmon is difficult of handling with
out damage, and therefore consider
able loss is apt to result. Experiments
made, however, show that the japanese

JUST AS REDpING SAID.

Trip to the Raw

The Trustees None the Wiser for Their
Trip to the Bay.
In accordance with a determination
reached by the City Trustees at their last
meeting, the members went to San Fran.
cisco on Wednesday to inspect the books of
the Central Electric Light Company for the
purpose of ascertaining, if possible, whether
or not the company had sold out to the gas
company.
Mr.. Redding, counsel for the company.
had asked the Board for an additional 60
days from April Goth in which to get its
plant into operation, owing to DELAYS en-.
countered during the winter in the matter
OF getting poles. He said the company
had expended upward of $50 600 already.
but had been forced to make terms with
the old company for power torun its lights
for the first year.
Trustee Mclaughlin said it did not look
TO him as if the company was keeping
faith with the city, and that he wanted to
examine its books to see what could be
learned therefrom.
Mr.. ReddIng invited the members of the
Beard 10 go to the city and inspect the
books, but said they would find simply
records of the purchases made and of a
contract with the gas company for motive
power. Still, if they wanted to go down.
he would pay their travelling expenses.
The members of the Board took the
trip, but came back no wiser than they
were when Mr.. Redding had concluded his
little talk to them on Monday.
Mayor Comstock is said to be pretty well
satisfied with the showing made, but Trus-
tee Mclaughlin adheres to his former
views, that the company has not done what
was expected of it.
The probability is, however, that the ex-
tension of time asked for will be allowed
