Seed Sowing.

From the middle of February for
ward Is n good time for sowing the
various early vegetables. to be follow
ed W succeeding sowlngs every week
or ten days. From the point of view
OF the market gardener who grows
vegetable plants for sale. this method
of making regular sowings is of great
Importance In the management Of his
house and frames. For instance. the
early cabbage may now be sown and
may be occupying the available shelly
ing, to be eventually moved to the
frames. thus allowing space for the
following crop. All greenhouses seem
to be overtaXed az this season Of the
year. but no one seems 70 have the
utilization OF space better planned
than the market gardener.

The Waste Of Soil Material on West

A good German farmer was talking
about growing wheat at an Illinois In

said In regard to tillage on wheat

ing land for wheat Many are lazy
too much In making the most out of
the straw. In this corn section, where
there Is no end OF cornstallxs. ii may
not often be advisable to try and feed
straw 10 stock. 1t can be fed, however.
with proper grain TO good advantage.
But there is no business sense In let
ting great piles OF straw lie and rot
down, almost n total loss. when the
land Is hungry for the humus this
straw would make if it was worked
into manure or otherwise got into the
soil evenly. There Is no sense in burn
ing straw. and still that is not much
worse than letting ii rot down in great
stacks. II may bc best sometimes to
burn stubb,es when insects are taking
crops as the lesser of two evils But
otherwise do not burn straw or Vcgeta-
bic matter In any form. Got II back

AT that time one thousand lcaC.ng druggists Of

which they had to sell patent medicines, decided
