ONION CULTIVATION,

A Crop TT Il Requires Esisil and Carefully
Prepared Soil.
1trequircs rich land to grow good
onions, and it must he fertility that
has been gradually impaired to the
soil. You cannot take ordinary farm
growing Onions. If stable manure is
used, it makes the soil too light while
it is deco1nposing. The best onions
are grown on nucky soil that has
several seasons been cultivated to
shallow depth, and that is then kept
in fertility will, some kind of con-
centrated manure. There needs to he
a hard stra tum OF soil three or four
inches below the surface. This makes
the onion roots spread out near the
surface. producing onious OF fat
shape. When the soil is nellowed too
deeply large proportion of the
crop will grow to solutions.
The seed from solutions will pro-
duce solutions in return. AS there Is a
constant tendency to deteriora ton it
is highly important that only the best
seed be used. The skillful seed
grower understands this difference.
many crops been selected from those
having the best form is we'll worth the
extra price that is asked for it. The
best profits in growing onions are now
made by starting the growth the pre-
vious season, planting very thickly
and saving the sets while they are
small. These are transplanted in
spring, and produce an earlier crop
than can be had from seed. They also
are much less trouble to keep free from
weeds. as the rows of young onions
can be seen within a few days after
planting, and they grow very rapidly.

Mixed Farming In Dry seasons.

1t seems to me that such seasons a.
we have had for three successive years
emphasize tho value of mixed farm
ing. 1 know that there are men who
succeed best as specialists, but they
are usually men of superior qualities,
who would succeed at almost any,
thing: but the average farmer, with a
farm not specially adapted to some
particular product, will generally find
it safer to grow little OF several
things. This has always been my rule,
and in the worst years 1 have album
dat supplies for the family of almost
rything needed, and when sell the
surplus and foot up the amounts,
have fair showing. This plan is
especially safe for the farmer who is
out OF debt end does not need to get u
large sum of money at once to pay out,
SO mucasas to have a moderate amount
of money come in often to meet ex.

Preparing Soil for Potatoes.

Potatoes are deep feeders and re.
quire an abundance of moisture,
though not too much. Great pains
should always be taken to keep the
cultivator going until the vines nearly
meet between the rows, if they are to
be saved from such a drought as tina (
of last summer. If the weather i.
moist, the weeds are apt to take adj
vantage of the potatoes, after culture
ceases, unless it has been prolonged as
it should be: SO. in any case frequent,
fairly deep and long culture should be
had. If muriate of potash is used as a
fertilizer, it would be we'll TO apply it
some little time be fore planting: bet
ter in the fall. but it is now too late,
in order that the chlorine may wash
down. AS it is believed that it tends TO
make the potatoes watery. Three to
four hundred pounds per acre would
be quito sufficient. 1t is good econ.
