no planks are used the studding should
have the lower end imbedded in the
earth to prevent it from slipping.
The siding may be of inch boards
and should be nailed to the studding
before they are raised into position.
The jOists B d should be of 2 by 4,
and the supports for the roof should be
of the same material. The space above
the jOists may be filled with straw or
leaves or hay, to prevent freezing in
the cellar. The plates, which are Sc
cured at the top of the studding, may
be placed somewhat above the level of
the surface of the ground. Part of the
earth which is removed in excavating
should be banked up against the walls
under the roof, so that the slope of the
ground will be away from the cellar.
Doors may be placed at intervals in
the roof, so that roots can be shoveled
from a wagon directly into the cellar.
At one end of the pit there should be
solid double doors, so that entrance
may be had to the cellar in cold wealth
er without permitting the cold to enter.
The upright centerpiece A E should
not be more than five to six feet high,
and the length of the cellar may be
made as great as desired The width
may be from eight to ten feet. If this
can be constructed on a slight slope of
land it will be all the better.

Guilty in sowing"
For fall use in seeding you can mix
900 pounds fine hen manure, 600
pounds acid phosphate, 200 pounds
dried blood or tankage and 800 pounds
muriate of potash. On the grass we
would use nitrate of soda in the spring.
Any mixture of chemicals will depend
on the price at which different forms
of nitrogen and phosphoric acid can be
bought. In some cases fine ground
bone could take the place of the blood
and acid phosphate.
Give analysis of fertilizer used by
G. NJ. Clark, amount per acre and how
applied, whether broadcast or in drill.
How much and what seed does he use
per acre?"
The fertilizer used by Mr.. Clark is
about the following mixture: Four
hundred pounds of nitrate of soda,
1900 pounds of fine ground bone, 400
pounds of muriate of potash Mr..
Clark uses fourteen quarts each Of
timothy and redtOp per acre with four
to six quarts of red clover per acre.
He brOadcasts this seed with great
care, going several times over, so as
to have an even stand. He uses from
600 to 800 pounds per acre each year.
If we used the mixture of nitrate, bone
and muriate here mentioned we would
use all the bone and potash in the fall
or early September and all the nitrate
in spring. This fertilizer ls all broad
cast by hand.

We should not try to seed such

the millet, give it a good manuring

top, but on lighter and poorer soil you
will be likely to do better with eight
or ten quarts each. We would use at
, least 300 pounds of good fertilizer per
acre in addition to the manure. We
would delay the grass seeding for a
year because we do not think you can
mt the soil as it should be fitted in the
short time after cutting millet. That
weedy and wOrnOut soil needs a thor
ough shaking up before trying to put
1t into permanent meadow. July and
August are far better for this work
than September, and after the rye is
harvested you can fit it properly. OF
course you can cut the millet,. spread

be better satisfied to SOW the rye and

THE small wheat and oats crops and
the unusually large tomato crop which
is taxing the capacity of the canning
plants of Delaware and the whole
Peninsula says the ELktOn Democrat
is another instance of the growing i'm
portance of the small farm.products.
Only few years ago the agriculturists
overlooked such articles as tomatoes,
beans, cucumbers, &c. They were
considered all right for garden cult
walton, but the idea of growing them
on a large scale and realizing great
profit from them remained latent in
the agricultural mind.
To truck farming is due the rise of
the mAll farm product. In the East
and South, where agriculture is con-
Quoted on a closer and more scientific
plan, it was gradually discovered that
immense values were i'll those products
that had long been regarded as garden
luxuries to be raised chiefly for indi-
vidual family consumption. Their
production was encouraged by the in.
creased market for canned goods, and
In little while it was demonstrated
that, propOrtiOnately, they afforded a
much better profit than the staple
grains and vegetables.
Now the annual earning from these
C As amounts to hundreds of thou
: .@ssa@s1 pillars. The cucumber crop
alone is worth thousands of dollars.
In the South, where truck farming is
perfected more than in any other Sec
tion of the country, it is not uncom-
mon for farmers who make a speciality
of cucumbers to clear from two to Eve
thousand dollars, on a crop. This
scientific utility of these lesser fruits
of the soil has given rise to an industry
that in itself can make country pro-
sperous.
