MORE MONEY IN FIVE ACRES.

IL Is a significant fact that the posi-
bilities OF close or intensive cultivation
Of small areas OF land. say five scres, as
against the ordinary cultivation Of large
tracts, say one hundred acres, are not
realized by farmers and others. Five
acres OF garden crops under careful
cultivation will yield, every time, a
larger income than one hundred acres as
ordinarily worked. For instance, in
strawberries alone, one-quarter acre
should easily yield 1000 quarts. which,
10 local market, should fetch 10 cents
quart, or 500. How many acres OF
wheat of the farm will IL require To
bring In the same returns? American
Gardening, L. o. Box, 1857, New York

plants rs premium, and our readers
