Plant sweet corn, potatoes or some
other hoed crop between the rows of
blackberries and raspberries the first
season after setting. 1t will be a
source OF profit to you and an ad-
vantage to the young berry plants. for
you will not be so likely to neglect
their cultivation. Berry plants should
never be mulched the first season.
most berry growers prefer cultivating
to mulcning at all times. 1t insures a
healthier cane growth, and the planta-
ton will last longer than when
mulched with straw. as the plants
root deeper and are not so badly in
jured by long continued drouths.
