advisable. But let everything be done
without stirring the soil.
In Light Soils.-There may be cases
where strawberry culture would pay
for home supply, on soils so light
if not quite, impossible to preserve
plants alive during the summer. The
bearing season is so long in Florida
and the value of a supply of fresh
berries for the table every day in the
late winter and spring is so great,
both from an economic and a hygienic
standpoint, that the grower could af-
ford to purchase few hundred plants
afresh every fall. But we doubt
whether strawberry culture for COM
mercial purposes would pay on soils
so light that the plants would wholly
perish every summer.
Raising Runners.-The greatest
enemy to strawberry plants in this
State is the crab grass, and this also
interposes the most serious difficulty
ners. For this purpose it is best to
select piece of land which has not
been long enough under cultiva ton to
become seeded to crab grass. A piece
of wire grass sod, just inverted, would
afford perfect exemption from this
pest, but, unfortunately, the straw
1t will throw out runners to some ex-
tent if the sod is well treated with
quick lime or fresh hardwood ashes;
still it is generally advisable to plant
land which has been year or two in
cultivation, even though it may have
little crab grass.
For the propagation of runners it
is advisable to set the parent plants
as early as March or even February
The ground is then COOL very few per-
ish, they take root and grow off rap
idly. Runner plants formed in the
spring or early summer may be al
lowed to stand a month or two; they
thereby mature and their roots lose
their white, fresh appearance and that
tenderness which makes them so per-
ishable when transplanted. The nov
ice will generally reject these dark
rooted plants as being too old, and
eagerly purchase the white-rooted
ones; but unless he is prepared to re-
move them with earth on or to shade
and water them with assiduous care,
he will make a mistake in this selec-
ton. The dark-rooted plants will live
when others will die.
The method of bedding is elsewhere
described. Run out a furrow with a
hand-plow, strew in it a mixture of
four parts cotton seed meal (by
weight) with one part fifty-per-cent
sulphate of potash at the rate of five
or six hundred pounds per acre. Run
another furrow close alongside cover
ing up the fertilizer and set the plants
in this last furrOw. Firm the earth
we'll around them with the feet as a
protection against the customary
spring drouth. AS soon as they are es-
tablished and beginto growrun around
them with garden sweep Coles is

experience in orange growing on

What wish to impress is the great
necessity of keeping the trees thor

August, and until about the middle of
September, the Importance of which
is too often lost sight of, to the detri-
ment of the trees by the curtailing of
their growth. Whilst during the
months of spring, growers see the ne
cessity of keeping the entire grove
clean by running the harrow, thereby
preventing, to great extent, evapo-
ration and holding the moisture in the

fertilizer which they have stolen-a
clear waste.
After the last cultivation has been
given the runners should be straight
ened out and distributed around over
the ground so that, as they take root,
the young plants shall not be crowded
together in punches.
Where old plants are used for the
propagation of runners, the fruit
should be kept picked off until the
end of the bearing season otherwise
it will fall down around the plants,
rot and the seeds will spring up, pro-
ducing seedlings which may be totally
unlike the parent plant and worth
less.
If Old Land is Used.-It is best to
continue the cultivation of it severely
until about the middle of July, re-
CARELESS Of the runners that may start
out BY this time most of the crab
grass seed which may be in the
young grass plants will have been de-
stroyed, so that when the cultivation
ceases there will be little left to come
up. If the cultivation is discontinued
as soon as the runners begin
to shoot out, the crab grass
will grow so rapidly that it
will swamp the young plants unless a
large amount of handwriting is
done. The Planet Jr cultivator has an
adjustable fender which lifts the run
ners to one side and enables the Guilt
walton to be performed without cover
ing up the ends of them with the fur
rOW-slice.
1t is very important to stir the
ground deeply in which plants are to
be grown, and this is especially the
case when it has been compacted by
the repeated tramping Of the pickers.
If the ground is left hard and tender,
white rootlets of the young plants
can not penetrate it to any depth;
CnoV spread OuU near Uno surface,
stunted and feeble; and, even if the
plants acquire sufficient volume to
promise well, they are very unsatis
factory because their roots are so
short that they quickly dry out and
die when transplanted. On the other
hand if the ground is kept mellow the
roots run down long and vigorous and
such plants can be set with much
more confidence that they will sur
vive.
1t is very essential also to keep the
grass and weeds subdued on the run
ner-bed, for if the young plants are
compelled to grow up tall and spind-
ling to reach the sunlight they are
tender when transplanted; they fall
over helpless, do not shade and keep
the ground cool around their own
roots, and quickly perish. Plants
grown on clean land are short, stocky
and vigorous.
