An AsnnraguS Bed.

Miss c. e. F., Savannah. Ga: Il should
like to have some instructions in making
an asparagus bed"
Our correspondent does not say how
much Of a bed she purposes to make. In
small gardens it has been a practice from
time immemorial to set the plants in bed
where only the hoe and fork can be used
10 cultivate. This does very well in the
small family garden but where it is grown
largely for commercial purposes it is
much better to plant in five or six-foot
rows, so that il can be cultivated with the
plow.
Beds are made anywhere from three TO
FIVE feet wide and any length. bed three
feet wide should have TO start with only
two rows of plants, ana a fve-foot bed
should have four rows. In the row the
plants should be twenty inches apart In
very short while after the bed is started
there will be a perfect mass of roots in
terlacing one another in every direction.
Consequently the annual manuring of the
bed is requisite. Every fall after the tops
have died down a compost rich in mineral
matter must be applied to the surface and
lightly worked in. II is best to start
bed with one year old roots, which can be
had at So to 81 per thousand. A bed fifty
feet long and four feet wide will need
ninety pants W set IL w lltn the pants
are received the roots should be cut back,
If not already cut back when shipped, 10
within three or four inches of the stem.
The rows should be opened with a spade
and the plants carefully set twenty inches
apart. Spread the roots out in every di-
rection, and after covering press the soil
firmly around each plant Get them about
four inches below the surface If the soil
is very dry at planting out and there is no
appearance of rain, it will be well enough
to water freely, but if the soil is firmly
pressed about the plants with the feet
there will be little danger of any failing
TO grow, unless protracted drought should
follow which is not likely at that season
--late fall or winter. 4
, Now you can buy fresh seed if you pre-
fer and sow next February and raise your
own plants to set out the winter after
wards but to get years start in a bear
ing bed it is far preferable. We think, to
buy the plants that some one Else has rails
ed. Two-year-old plants can be had Tor
but a slight advance on the price of one
year-old roots. Ii is not a bad plan to
buy half of one year old and half of two
year-old and set one-half, of the bed with
each.
AS to varieties. one is about as good as
the other The chief thing is to set
healthy plants. Palmetto or Conover's CO.
lossal either will do. In buying, if it comes
convenient you might buy half the guam
tity of each
Asparagus is subject to disease that
proves widespread. Reference is made TO
elsewhere. What the ultimate effects of
the rust will be is yet to be determined
1t may or it may not cause every plant
that IL affects to die out in the course of
year or two The rust may however.
prove transitory, especially if promptly
treated with lime and heat or use of the
Bordeaux Mixture. which is very generally
used for plant diseases.

Autumn Work in the south.

September occupies the same position on
the Florida Farmers Calendar that March
does as far as farming operations are con-
cerned only that September is the fall sea-
son and the preparations are for winter
crops, not summer ones.
This is the great haying month, and ev-
cry farmer ought to save as much of it as
possible. This is easily done If the proper
measures are taken in time, and the far
mer who has his fields full of crab grass
and don't cut 1t and cure it into hay is
committing crime both against himself
and family and against the community in
which he lives. This is a very busy
month in the garden, the whole renlge
of vegetables can be planted with a rea-
sonable assurance of getting crops before
frost. In painting beans the Mohawk is
recommended, as it is very early and will
stand a good snap of frost. English peas
should be planted as soon as possible:
Early Alaska is very good, followed by
American Wonder" Beets, radishes. car
rots, lettuce, parsley. endlve. spinach.
kohlrabi, turnips, ruta bagas. kale, celery.
mustard, satisfy parsnips, early caulihow-
er and early cabbage, can all be planted
before the middle of this month.
Cabbage seed sown in August will re-
quire a good deal of attention so as to keep
II growing right along. Inc least check
to he growth of the young plants is more
fatal at this time than any other tine of
the year; if they look puty and thriftless
a weak solution of nitrate of soda spriul-
led on the bed every alternate evening for
a week Will help hem wonderfully, "a
handful of the soda to gallons of water
win be ample,) Towards the end of the
month onion seed can be sown, ia Louls.-
ana the Creole onion is he favorlte but I
have had very good success with Giant
White Tripoh" it is a better onion than
the Creole, grows larger and s better ia
vorods Early next month the genuine Ber-
muda onion seed comes on the market. and
all onion growers should plant it extern
sively as il is really best of all onions for
Florida. The ground for it shouli Be pre-
pared This month so as TO be ready to sow
the seed Immediately on arrival, my pref
erence is for the white of Ibis variety.
Transplanting cabbage, celery. caulifiow-
er and cohard plants should be in PRO
gress from the middle Of the month on, IN
fact the man who wants to keep up with
the season in gardening operations will
have his hands fun this month.
In the field Preparations should be in
progress for winter farm crops Hay stub
bic should be piowed for the oat and rye
crops. Toward The end OF the month some
oats may be s0wn and he main crop next
month. Rye can be also put in on O small
scale, but this is the proper time TO SOW

known in the South, let me strongly urge

About Spraying and Spraying APP
paratus.

My experience among farmers, fruit and
vegetable growers during the past two
months has thoroughly convinced me that
we have failed to impress the average
man sufficiently with a few of the funda
mental principles of spraying, says Prof.
Malloy in Farmer and Ranch. The av-
erage person fails TO include the matter of
spraying, spraying apparatus and mate
rails in his general estimates for the sea
sons operations. The result is that Meth
er materials nor apparatus are at hand
when the time for warfare comes and tha
injurious insect can attack and often de-
stroy a crop before the producer is able
to prepare and equip himself for the fight
Another result is that IL any spraying is
done at all, IL is done so late that the best
results cannot be obtained, and the next
thing you hear is that spraying is a failure
or at least only a partial success In this
day when the man of insecticides and fun
gicides is so generally conceded TO be
practical success, il seems 10 me TO be ut
ter folly for anyone growing crops which
may make it necessary to treat them with
either should fail to have as a portion OF
his equipment complete set of the mos
approved spraying outfits and the proper
materials on hand, so that quick. timeIy
and effective warfare can be waged.
SdrueHer OF Irult grower should no mO-e
think of attempting TO make a success
without this kind of an equipment than
would a cotton planter without his mule
and plow. 1t ought not TO be
charged UP as current expense, either
any more than the implements and
live stock mentioned, but should be figured
as a portion of the investment. NV 90
servauon this season leads me to believe
that at least IS per cent of the failures
TO get results from spraying is due TO not
doing the work in time and to the use
OF imperfect apparatus. If spraying paws
at ali, II should be done at the propel
time, and unless one desires to take the
chances on loss of labor and material. II is
equally as important that the latest and
most improved spraying outfits be used Ia
the work. Both Of these appeals cannot
