Thus spoke Harry Crompton, as he

OTHER SMALL FRUITS.

Raspberries and blackberries will
soon fill up the spaces between the
plants, and plenty of room, therefore
should be allowed them. Once esta-
blished they will remain for years, and
if the plants are so arranged in the
rows as to permit of the check-row
system of cultivation a great saying of
labor will be effected The best mar
ket black berry-the Wilson-has been
nearly eradicated by the attacks of the
borer, but some other varieties seem to
escape, through the blackberry crop is
not as large as in former years, but
there has been an increase in the area
devoted to strawberries and raspberries.
The best variety depends on the climate
and soil, and can only be known by
testing several varieties, as expert
ments show that the best varieties in
soma sections are almost worthless in
others.

Small Fruit Farming.
GREAT RISK IN IT AND SOMETIMES
GOOD PROFITS.

To make a speciality of small fruits is
to use less land, give the best of cult
walton, and apply manure and fertiliz-
ers literally. Instances have been
known where as much as $1,000 per
acre have been secured from one acre
of Strawberries, but such results are an
exception. In this section the exper-
fenced growers do not wait until the
season opens, but begin work as soon
as the condition of the ground permits
If manure is to be used, nothing that
is coarse is placed on the ground, only
the finest and most perfectly rotted
material being used. If fertilizers are
resorted to they are used before the
young plants begin to shoot out, and
if possible, the rows are cultivated, the
object being to have the plant food
within reach of the young plants at a
time when they need it most.

Senator Quay says of the bond issue.
y 6el'eve that any that may be issued

NEW PLOTS.

In order to give the young plants a
start the land is made rich, and then are
transplanted as early as possible, so as
to give them the advantages of the
spring rains. A dry spell not only in
terferes with their growth, but cuts
the crop from the old bed shoot. The
greatest enemy Of the strawberry is the
weeds. 1t is easy enough to keep
them down between the rows, and if
the bed is matted in wide row, hand
pulling must be resorted too, but if the
young plants are we'll worked the first
year, and the space between each plant
kept clean, the weeds can be kept
down so as to protect the matted rows
the second year. The young plants
may be put out in rows wide enough
to permit of horse culture, and should
be foot apart in the rows. Later in
the season they will throw out run
ners, which will cover every square
inch of space in the rows. The plants
that are set out this spring will bear a
full crop next spring.
