THE STRAWBERRY BED.

A lady reader Of these notes makes
inquiry regarding the best varieties of
strawberries to plant in the home gar
den and whether it is more satisfactory
to have one or more varieties 1t is a
matter Of both observation and expert
ence that there are certain varieties
which do better in certain portions of
the country than in others, this being
due without doubt to difference in eli
matte and soil conditions. For the
western central states the Warfield,
Dunlap and Candy do not make bad
combination. To this many would add
the Clyde, which, though a prolific
bearer, produces berry somewhat III
ferior in quality and flavor. For the
eastern section Of the country the At
lantic, Marshall, William Belt and Glen
Mary are favorites, with the Candy
added as a late variety. For the home
garden we would recommend planting
three or four varieties in alternate
rows. Get the plants from your near
est neighbor If possible, if not from
your nearest reliable nurseryman. Soil
should be put in rich and mellow con-
dition and the roots of the plants
moistened and clipped slightly before
the plants are set in the ground The
rows should be three and half feet
apart and the plants about twenty
inches apart in the row. While there
may be times when the plants should
be watered after setting out, due to a
very dry condition Of the soil, we do
not believe this is advisable as a gen.
eral thing, as it is likely to result in
baking of the soil about the plant,
which does a great deal more harm
than good. The bed should be kept
thoroughly hoed and cultivated and
clean of weeds, and the blossoms which
appear during the first season should
be shipped off, as the fruit they would
produce simply results in robbing the
vines of needed vitality. Strawberries
are not hard to raise, while the having
of an abundance of them to eat more
than compensates for the time and ex-
ponSe involved

purpose he took an ordinary bicycle
pump, inflated the cows udder with
air pumped through the nipples, tied
them with strings and left them twelve
hours. He then cut the strings and
let the air out The presence of the
air seems to have worked a cure.
