Even for the sake of the reputation
and general appearance of Florida
fruit one should protect the plants. 1t
is the younger plants, with sparse and
open foliage, bearing the finest berries,
that suffers most from the frost;
whereas, the old plants. with heavy
and abundant LEAKAGE, protect their
berries to sOlne extent; and 1T is these
older plants that produce the least at
tractive and smallest berries. Besides
this, frost often pinches the cheek OF
a young berry and causes it to shrink,
making it deformed, with a hard spot
on one side, so that if it comes to ma
turity, it is rejected, or ought to be,
and it has robbed the plant of that
amount of nourshment for nothing.
Profits of lit is true that we'll
kept and well-fertilized strawberry
patch sometimes sets really more fruit
than it ought to mature, and the frost
thinning it out would he positive
benefit if it were only done judicious-
ly. But it is not; as above noted the
plants bearing the finest fruit are least
able to protect it.
We have been we'll acquainted for
years with grower i'm Bradford coun-
ty, who last fall set his plants wide
and provided an abundance of wire
grass hay between the rows with
which to cover them. He saved a
large part O., his bloom and fruit
through the severe freeze of February
13, and the result was he took in
checks before his neighbors had begun
to ship at all. Even when they began
he was shipping bushels, while they
were shipping quarts. He made a
handsome profit out of his four-acre
patch, and is now enjoying visit
among his lends in Illinois.
Choice of Laud.-Straw berries are
not so fastiGious in respect to the
quality Of the land they grow OH as
celery. They will grow wherever
corn does and produce good fruit, if
well tended and tertilized; but Oh dry,
light sandy lands they require so much
shading or watering IN the fall to get
them to live when freshly planted,
they shrink so much in yield in the
spring drou!h and they die out so ex-
tensively during the summer that it is
Improbable to plant them in such sit
uatiOns Neither have we been able
to obtain satiSfa tory results, on pure,
black muck. 1t is too much like flour;
it runs together in wet weather and
then in drCuth t dries out nearly as
hard as mortar. 1t needs some sand
as divisor; certain proportion of
sand renders the Vegetable mattvr, por-
Gus and friable, and it will actually
retain Moisture longer than a bed of
purely vegetable remains. Take
pinch of the lanl and rub it Between
the thumb and finger; if it has q fine,
fioury feel to it, it is not of the best
quality for Strawberries.

avoid virgin sol! for strawberries. 1t
