HORTICULTURAL PARAGRAPHS,

By burning the garden and orchard
rubbish you destroy unseen, but nu-
merous insect enemies. For that rea-
son burning is better than hauling
to some out of the way corner.
A. Marshall county Qowa) truck
farmer last year had an income of
$4,000 from 10 acres cropped with
onions, cucumbers and cabbage When
grown and sold, as they may be,
intelligently, these products pay.
Lettuce is another plant not easily
killed. Most growers have noticed
that the self-sown plants are much
earlier than those raised from spring
seeding. This fact hints very strong
ly of the advantage of late fall SOW
ing.
In the renovation of an old orchard,
the methods to be employed will
depend upon the conditions that sur.
round it. When the orchard is plant
ed on land that may be titled and
upon which spraying machinery may
be used, it will be of great value to
give it cultivation. :- -, . ,,.sst5. r 81.
