onion Growing.
Onion growing has received greatly
increased attention the last few years.
Particularly is this true in our middle
west, where large and increasing
areas are given over to this crop in
Ohio. Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin,
Illinois. etc. A fascinating and some
what hazardous crop. due partly to
the periShable nature OF onions and
partly to speculative conditions in the
big city markets, the question arises,
is there danger of farmers OVERRIDING
the matter? In some of the older sec
tons where onions have long formed q
money crop, such as the Connecticut
valley, central New York. northeastern
Ohio, the acreage remains about the
same from season to season.-Orange

FIGHTING INSECTS.
Soil Preparation Is Very Important
Means Open to All.

Means OpSn All.
Soil preparation is one of the legiti-
mate ways of fighting insects. There
is not reputable stockman in the
country who does not understand the
worthlessness of a stunted pig calf.

OF the necessity of keeping a young
animal in a vigorous. growing condi-
ton from it's birth. If this is essential
with animals it is equally so with cul-
tiyated plants. 1t is the stunted or
starved plant that is more often the
prey of insects, though it cannot be
said that this holds good in all cases
However. field of young grain in
healthy growing condition will sustain
without material injury an attack that
a less vigorous one would not. So far
as plants are concerned, it matters
little whether soil is lacking in fer
tility or whether this fertility is pres
ent and beyond reach. There is suffi-
cient nutriment in healthy seed to
enable it to throw shoot upward to
light and air and rootlets downward

these rootlets go about among solid
clodS begging, as it were, for food.
Stunted plants are no more profitable
than stunted animals.
A Comparison.
Take two fields of equal fertility of
soil. One is plowed a considerable
time before seeding and is narrowed

times. This is largely due to injudi-
cious marketing. since Kieffers are
good keeping pears and therefore
adapted to storage purposes.
The bulk of Kieffers grown in east
ern orchards are sold direct to can
ners. So many have been planted in
Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey and
other central and eastern states that
the price has been very low for the
past few years. A considerable num-
Der of young orchards are being plant
ed in the south, particularly in the
Carolinas.

All Beautiful and Most OF Them lie.
Hcionsly Fragrant.
Nature not only laYishly bestows her
choice gifts in the way of flowers to
the brightest hours of sunshine, but
provides a share for the evening
boomers. Brugmansia suaveolens,
with all it's names and its immense
trumpet shaped flowers deliciously
perfumed. is worthy place in every
greenhouse. 1t soon forms shapely
tree and hangs out its white or pink
trumpets of corded silk, more beauti-
full in the evening than at other times.
Eunkia subcordata, known as the
pIantain lily, unfurls its waxen white
blossoms. the very embodiment of pu-
rity, fragrance and beauty. Perhaps
there are two or three dozen buds on
a stem, two or three opening every
evening and closing at break of day
until all have acted their part.
The evening primrose, oenothera,
that opens with q ghost of sound
while you stand beholding it, like the
buttercup, has absorbed the golden
sunbeams. A huge plant of grandifiora

Nicotiana affinis has tubular, star

This plant when carrying its spikes
aloft looks very sickly during the day,
but directly eventide arrives it bright

Other evening scented flowers are of
much more modest dimensions and
colorings. Take the night scented

mignonette, too, never smells sweeter
