THAT WONDERFUL CHURN.

I want to add my testimony to the
list of those that have used the Light
ming Churn. It does all that is claim
ed for it; you can churn easily in one
minute and get large percentage
more butter than with the common
churns. I never took the agency for
anything before, but so many of my
neighbors wanted churns that [ or
dered 80 and they are all gone. I
think in a year every farmer will have
a Lightning Churn, in fact they can't
afford to be without one as they make
so much more butter and a good little
bit of money can be made in every
township selling these churns. By
writing to j. F. Casey & Co., ST. Louis,
Mo-, you can get circulars and full
particulars about the churn.

young beet plants can stand quite a
severe frost, but cold severe enough to
heave the sod is likely to destroy
them completely.
The soil should be thoroughly fined
for sowing, and shallow drills not
over an inch deep made to receive the
to ensure a perfect stand, and after
being lightly covered should have a
roller of some kind run over them,
the mere rolling is a sufficient cover
ing usually early in the season, when
the sun is not hot
AS soon as the young plants are
up run a scuffle hoe or rake along the
rows on each side close up. This will
keep the weeds in check and give the
young buds a prompt start. If the
soil is rich a plant can be left every
three or four inches, in fact, if the
seed have not been sown too thickly
and did not fall in punches, there
will be no need for thinning at all.
When grown for table use it is not
very desirable to have them very
large. A beet the size of tea cup
is most desirable for cooking purpos-
es, and by taking them out as fast as
they get large enough, the others
can be allowed to grow on and extend
the season for some eight or ten
weeks. An immense yield of beets
can be obtained by observing this
plan. We have always found it good
plan to sow some radish seed along
thinly in the row with the beets. This
is a good plan, especially on stiff
or muddy soil. The radishes soon APP
pear in a few days and mark the
rows so that cultivation can proceed,
if necessary, even before the beets
are up. When the radishes are grown
they can be drawn out, and without
having done the beets any HARM

plants until it is safe to transplant to
the open ground, in January or Feb
ruary. In lower ATTITUDES the beet can
be sowed in the open ground in the
fall, needing but a slight protection
with pine straw for the very short
period of severe weather. Some
winters no protection at all is called
for in the lower sections of the SOUTH
In Middle Georgia sowings in the
open ground cannot be safely made
before the latter part of January, and
if the January weather is very severe
not earlier than the middle of Febru-
airy.
A clayey soil is not a very good soil
in which to grow a good crop of beets
usually, but if such soil is naturally
rich, or made so by suitable manure,
by careful management very fair
crops can be made on such soil. The
beet delights in a rich sandy loan,
the more vegetable matter in it the
better. Good old compost made well
in advance of use, of stable manure,
cotton seed and phosphate, will make
beets on most any kind of soil, with
the aid of good cultivation. If the
sowing is to be made early in Febru-
airy preparation of the soil can be ad-
vantageously done early in December
or little earlier, by laying off fur
rows, two or two and one-half feet,
and depOsiting the stable manure,
cotton seed and phosphate, with some
potash, kainit or ashes, in the fur
rows IF the rows are horizontal so
as not to wash, it matters not wheth
er these burrows are covered; still, if
deemed best after applying the ma
nure the burrows may be listed on and
thus left until the planting time ar
rives. When the list beds may be
split open deeply and relisted prepar-
atory to sowing.
When the soil is poor nitrate of soda
acts very quickly, and should never be
put deeply in the soil, but can be used
to very great profit after the seeds
have been put in the ground. 1t
should always be used as top-dress-
ing. Bone dust is fine fertilizer for
beets, as for everything else, but this
should always be applied below the
seed, and should go into the burrows
six to ten weeks in advance of sowing.
Chlorate of soda however, is a specific
for beets and some very wonderful
crops have been grown by the use of
two to five hundred pounds as a top
dressing. Names of beets have not
been multiplied by the extent that
most other vegetable plants have
been. Some forty-odd names alto
gether appear in the American cata-
logues, but there are numerous syno-
nyms among these. There are not
many really distinct varieties. For
garden culture it is not necessary to
name but three or four kinds, the
"Bassano," "Egyptian," Eclipse" and
"Dewing's Early"
The last mentioned is surpassed by
no other variety, but the Bassano is a
little earlier. but it's color is not so
attractive as the Dewing or Eclipse or
