Trapping Rabbits-Best Land for
Onions.

We are having an exceptional season
for February; [ do not remember seeing
but two SIS wet since l came here in 1874.
There was one spring which was so wet
that corn would rot in the ground, and
had to be replanted two or three times.
This season is making glad the hearts
of the truckers, and vegetables are push
ing rapidly forward. Onion tops are
getting very large and the moist weather
will delay their building most too late to
catch the early onion market North.
Unless we catch the early market it
will not be profitable to ship in competi
tion with Bermuda which generally floods
the country in April and May. The
point is to get ahead Of them, but how

stances than under culture.
Fertilize the peach and the pear. Ii
the pear is large Qour to six inches dia-
meter of stock, cease culture. This
will produce fruit buds. Prune the pear
as little as possible, but where limbs
chafe remove such and keep all growth
rubbed off where such branches are re-
moved.
Carefully look for the borer in the
peach trees. Prune the peach after The
crop is taken off and then shorten in,
keeping the trees low and spreading.
THE GROVE.
After the heavy rains of the past few
days, the ground will be too compact,
and the sorrel etc. too heavy for good
work with the harrow, so the plow
should be used. Plow about four inches
deep. The young grove can be safely
fertilized after the middle Of this month.
If you are wanting amusement and
are out Of job there is generally q
chance in an old or young grove at prun-
ing. So, cut out all water shoots, if
they are not needed for fruit branches.
Do not prure young trees, LET the
branches come to the ground all around
this gives the tree much more growing
capacity, more lung power through its
leaves, besides protecting the tree from
sun bake and from cold.
Consider the needs of your stock and
poultry. Besides a diversity of food,
provide shade and plenty of water.
TO THE NONRESIDENT.
Visit your neighbors about you, see
how they do it, they will willingly con-
tribute as to how they succeeded and how
they made failures. Get experience,
that of others will be more profitable
than to raise crop Of your own.
Don't nail up your fire place until May
goth. Drink rain water rather than
from shallow wells. Take and read the

are we going to do it? That is the ques
ton.
I planted the Goth of September and
3rd of October, and from the appearance
there will be none ready to ship before
April, unless there is a change in the
weather to very dry.
Our crop passed through the January
cold without loss; on a piece Of land
where the thermometer must have gone
down 20 degrees.
In order to have onions to supply our
local markets, [ planted patch the
middle of January, which are doing
finely.
Heavy, moist pine land, we'll under
Drained seems to suit the onion the
best. In one spot where the clay comes
up so close that the plow brings it up,
the onions do much the best. In fact
every vegetable grows the best on that
spot. There is but one fault with it and
that is it is not extensive enough. On
themuck lands the onion must be planted
late, as the cold is often SO severe as to
kill out the crop. 1t is useless to try
to grow onions without applying fertil-
zer without stint-200O pounds will be
none too much, where the sole depend
ence is on commercial fertilizers.
We planted a good patch of carrots
which grew extra we'll until the freeze
of January, and thenWe noticed that the
tops were disappearing; the cold had
killed the grasses that the rabbits lived
on, and they were trying the carrot tops
and they liked them so well that they
soon ate them down to the ground and
commenced on the cabbage. I got two
steel traps and drove down strong
stick through the ring in the chain we'll
into the ground, leaving it out about
foot; about eight inches above the
ground tied a sweet potato and set the
trap just below it, concealing it some.
The rabbit would come and raise up
and bite the potato and as became down
to rest he would put his fore foot in the
trap. caughttWo one night, and caught
six in all, or until there were no more
tracks to be- seen in the garden. shall
not worry hereafter over the rabbit pest,
nor build rabbit proof fence any more.
This spring the conditions of heat and
moisture have been all that orange grow
ers could have desired, and the trees are
growing very fast. 1t is more than
probable that such flow of sap will
cause a great proportion Of trees to do
their best to grow and not develop fruit
buds as freely as they would have done
if dryer, especially as the last two sea-
sons have not been very good formaking
growth.
All through this section fertilizing is
being rushed forward as fast as possible
and trees are receiving their first work
ing out; the blooms are opening and the
bees are having lively time gathering
in orange blossom honey.

Haskell's Advice About March Work.
GARDEN WoRK.-As weeds and grass
grow at this time of year, more rapidly
than in the fall, we will have to cultivate,
hoe and weed the garden often and thor
oughly.
After every heavy rain break the crust
with the harrow or cultivatOr, and hoe
the rows.
Thin the beets, onions, ETC., and trans
plant in the missing places. Also stimu-
late rapid growth OF the hardy vege-
tables as cabbage, beets, onions, carrots,
turnips, ETC., by applying concentrated
fertilizer alongside the rows and hoeing
it in lightly.
There are still eight Or ten weeks be-
fore extreme summer heat, during which
season we can reasonably expect to bring
to perfection nearly all the usual garden
truck, excepting, perhaps, Irish potatoes
and onions, but possibly these may be
made a success by the ''mulching process
as recommended by recent writer of
garden notes.
These additional crops may be planted
after the goth, watermelons, squashes,
and more sweet corn.
To make crop Of watermelOns for
market, plant Immediately and il up and
exposed to March frost prepare to pro-
tect them with handful of pine straw.
Choose a high spot andlay off theroWs
eight feet apart. Plow out a trench, by
throwing out four burrows and make it
foot Deep Fill this half full with a good
rot ten compost, or iflacking this use one
half as much tobacco stems in the trench.
Then cover by throwing on two burrows.
Sow the melon seeds continuously on
this bed, thinning to one plant to every
three feet. Reserve afew stems to throw
around the plant as an insecticide.
By the way, this bed will be just right
for sweet corn, squashes, tomatoes, etc.
Thin all plants much more than at the
North say, for all root vegetables thin
to q distance between them equal to
twice the diameter OF full grown root
OF it's kind; cabbage two to three feet;
corn and tomatoes three to fOurfeet and
single stalk in place.
Be sure and compact the soil after de-
posting the seeds. have found that
heavy barrel will do the work better than
the feet.
FARM WORK FOR MARCH.
After the 18th plant the main crop of
corn. Plant Florida white corn. 1t is
naturalized and will do better than other
varieties, it will also do for table use as
green COIN, and makes better meal.
Fine crops of corn have been made
here on high pine land by using good
sprinkling OF tobacco stems in the fur
rows when planting. 1t won'tdo to plant
close, as at the North; four feet by three

right.
Raise your own syrup and common
sugar. One-fourth of an acre of cane will
do it.
OpenfurrOWs as for corn and make them
the same distance apart. Sprinkle them
we'll with compost or cotton seed meal;
then lay in double row Of canes, to be
sure OF a stand. After culture about the
same as corn.
Plant cassava as directed for cane, but
one or two seed stalks every three feet
will be about the right distance apart.
Plant sweet potatoes forv vines. [ think
the best plan to obtain vines for planting
is to plant every fifth row OF your in
tended patch, as you would an Irish po-
tato crop, that is, open every fifth row
in your potato field and make the trench
rich; then, choosing the best formed pO-
tatoes, medium sized, cut them length
wise, and drop a piece every fifteen inches.
From these you can obtain vines to
plant the whole patch.
Prepare piece OF good new ground
for rice, (Which should be planted in
ApriD and make it clean and level Sow
a patch OF corn for forage, make the
ground rich.
Teosinte makes a green forage and is
,bo, Il
Kaffir corn on rich ground. Drill it
three feet apart, fertilizing we'll. This
will make an excellentgrain for the poul-
try. Plant teosinte three by four feet,
one stalk in place.
THE VINEYARD.
Fertilize vines, one or two years old,
the last of this month, using from three
fourths to a ton per acre Of any good
bone and potash fertilizer. Harrow it
with an Acme harrow.
If the vineyard is to be planted dig the
holes eighteen inches square and deep
and place the fertilizer in the hole using
one pound OF finely ground bone to each
hole. Cut the one year vines back to
two buds and shorten the roots to fiji
teen inches. Plant them twelve or fifteen
inches apart and do not put the vines
into the ground until after the 18th.
THE ORCHARD.
In this part of the State we have
good promise of abundant crops OF
peaches, pears, plums, mulberries, etc.
Now let usdo our.part with these fruits.
Give them ten pounds or more per tree
of the best fruit fertilizer. That which
will make good oranges will produce fine
fruits Of all other kinds.
