STRAWBERRY CULTURE.
The FulI-Mattcd Row system Is q nj e
Popular, hut should Be Avoided
As II Mistake.

Probably thrcefourths Of all straw.
berries are gown in this way, but
progressive fruit growers are fast
finding out that it is mistake. 1t is
only justiiiable when the land is too
poor to grow them in other ways.
Make rows four feet apart, and set
plants IS to "a inches in the row. Let
the cultiyator go in the same direc.
ton every time, SO as to throw the
runners around without tangling
them, and as they root, narrow up the
cultivator.
The objections to the Eliminated
row are that when the row is full, a
strip Of ground some 20 inches wide
is left around the plants which can.
not be cultivated. The crust forms
over this, excluding the air from the
roots and soil and the water draws up
to the surface so the roots are dried
out and injured. If the top of the
ground is dry, the runners will not
send down their shoots, but continue
to live on the mother plant, forming
several plants on the same runner,
which blows around in the wind and
does not take root until the fall ia ms
come, and then it has no time to make
and perfect the mruit buds and roots,
and so the next season cannot bring
it's berries to full size and maturity.
If the ground is rich the plants will
mat SO thickly that sunlight is exclud.
ed from the lower foliage and the
crowns. Fruit buds which will not
form in dense shade will be lacking,
Many of the berries are too small to
pick and rot on the vines and sap the
vitality of the plant, thus preventing
the better berries from growing to
