THE STRAWBERRY BED.

A great many will probably set out
bed of strawberries this spring and be-
fore doing so it is well to consider some
few points necessary to success.
By all means be sure that good, vigor-
Gus plants are obtained. Never take
plants from a bed that has borne one or
more years because you can get them for
nothing, as they will prove expensive in
the end. Such plants will never produce
well as they are already exhausted by
bearing seed. Better pay d good price for
plants that have never borne fruit. The
kinds to be planted will depend upon the
location, so before buying plants get the
advice of some successful fruit grower
in your locality But whatever varieties
are purchased remember that there are
pistilate and staminate plants, and enough
of the latter should be planted to fertll-
ize the former.
Strawberries hould be planted on
ground that has been the preceding year
planted to some hoed crop. The ground
should be thoroughly worked until per-
fectly mellow and marked off in straight
rows three and one-half feet apart and
the plants set eighteen or twenty inches
apart in the rows.
Ground that will produce good crop

a good crop of berries. If, after blowing

better to set the spade two or three

THE NEW CABBAGE CULTURE.
Seed Sown in Open Ground is Left to

The horticultural editor Of American

ture" has been mentioned quite frequent
ly, and yet it is so little practiced by the
average home gardener and yet so very
valuable that it will bear more and
stronger words in its favor. Indeed We
find it the easiest and simplest way OF
starting a patch.
The land is enriched and prepared in
the usual way required for any of our
garden crops Light marks are then
made with the garden marker, two feet
apart for small sorts, three apart for
late and very large ones. Next We take

containing the seed in the left hand. take
up a few seeds between the thumb and
index finger of the right hand and drop
them in the mark, lightly rubbing over
the spot with the right foot and finally
stepping on it. The operation is repeat.

BRIGHT BITS FROM BRIGHAM.
How Residents of the City of Homes
Are Prospecting.


Brigham City, April 2O.-Brigham
city today is glorified with millions Of
bursting buds and beautiful fruit bios
SONS. The air is surcharged with the
delightful doors from a thousand
bounteous orchards. Immense fruit
crops are anticipated.
In order to be up to the times the
Brigham off-shoot of the conSttu
tional convention is now up to its ears
in the woman suffrage ocean of talk.
But some of the members say: Give
us a rest on this subject"
The last vote in the convention for
woman suffrage showed the four dele
gates from Box Elder county on the
right side. Peters, Gibbs. Lowe and
Lowe are all right.
The Brigham wooden factory will
start up next week. They now have
tailor shop running in connection with
the factory, and make UP their own
cloth into suits. This is a good stroke
of enterprise and seems to be meet
ing with success. They have already
made up one or two hundred suits from
clothing manufactured right here in
Brigham from Box Elder county wool.
The manager. Bishop Janson, is an en-
terprising business man who believes
in push.
Between seventy-five and a hundred
young men from this county are now
in Idaho and other points, shearing
sheep. They bring back considerable
money into the county.
The population of Brigham City is
placed at 3107.
There is a pottery in operation in
Brigham that is turning out great
deal of firSt-class ware.
The building of a big reservoir III
the hills east of town would be the
means of doubling the fruit yield Of
this city inside of five years.
There is considerable rivalry among
the citizens of Brigham this year in
the way of cleaning UP and beautify-
ing their premises. Scores of new
lawns are being planted this spring.
The county court and city council
were in session this week, but nothing
of particular Importance came up for
consideration
The county has purchased a large
pile driver. It's first work was to
strengthen the bank of Bear river half
a mile east of Corinne. Dozens Of
large piles have been driven in there.
The high waters threatened to break
through the banks and wipe out the
county road at that point, but timely
work will prevent this break in the
bank
There is a splendid opening in Brig
ham for large fiI-st-class hotel. Here
is a city of over 5000 people with
