POINTS ABOUT
STRAWBERRIES
B. F. B. WOOdaII Discusses
Fruit Cultivation Before
the Milford Grange

At the meeting OF the Milford Grange
b. +. B. Woodal took up the Growing
of Strawberries" which he thinks one OF
the best things to grow and sell. as Il
brings in money when there is little else
to SELL Any land will grow Strawberries.
but swamp land well drained produces
the finest fruit. With the application OF
four to five hundred pounds OF CONNER
clal fertilizer such land viii grow from
5000 to 5000 quarts of berries. Not many
years ago farmers in lower Sussex county.
raised thirty bushels of corn per acre and
that every second year
That same land now being planted with
Strawberries. brings in 500 per acre every
year The commercial fertilizer should be
applied i'm August On low land Mr.. Wood
all would set Grandy's and Parsons

ling. Tennessee. Prolific. Bubach and
Superior. To prepare the field, turn under
clover sod and cultivate thoroughly in
March. Set the plants in April mark
ing out the rows three and one-half feet
apart and three and one-half inches deep.
Mark when the land is moist and not
more than one-half hour ahead of the set
ters Separate the roots OF each plant 49,
the roots IN the furrow cover with damp
earth and press hard.
If plants are loose in the ground they
soon die. He finds nothing equals an ap-
plication OF hen manure. a week after set
ting. to give the plant a start. Keep the
field cultivated every week or ten days.
Cultivate shallow and until runners begin
to take root. Apply a good dressing OF
stable manure in early winter Mr. Wood
all thinks It important to use strong plants
and would discard all with small root and
crown. Some varieties make so many rum
ners they should he cut out to prevent
the plants being spindling. II plants are
too crowded the fruit is small All bios
SONS should be removed from youna
plants the first season. It IS possible "a
prolong the ripening season Of some var
eties. Mr.. Woodall thinks. by flooding the
field and leaving the water on for some
time Charles Barker would set plants
deper than Mr.. Woodall as the deep sci
fields stand a drought better The largest
strawberry grower on this Peninsula sets
plants all winter. when the ground is no.
frozen. His reason is. that there IS MOI
times at this season and IL any do not
live there is time TO reset. AS fast as Tho
plants are set he covers chem with coars'
manure. J. J. Rosa thinks any one settiaf
/ even one acre OF berries should do Ct b!
machine and not by hand.

GRAND OPERA HOUSE


The Bon-B Bon Girls. with the musical
melodrama The Candy Kid" will be
seen for the first time at the Opera
House Christmas and the day follow
ing, with two performances each day.
Ray Raymond is the star and as THE
Kid has a role that gives him wide
scope to display his voice and ability
as a comedian. The company is a large
one and also includes the Bon Bon"
Girl chorus, who can sing. dance as
well as look pretty in the many changes
of costumes. The play IS a strikingly
original melodrama and the cast equal
to it in every particular. Different
from plays where specialties and songs
are introduced, the musical numbers
are all original and were written es-
pecially for this production. Take
Your Hat Off to tho Il. s. Marines"
is one Of the song hits.
Manager Rice of the Opera House
obtained for his New Year Offering
Arnold DAILY one Of the most widely
discussed of our younger actors. While
Mr. DAILY has not been any too sue
cessful in the choice of his vehicle in
the course of the past few seasons.
some praise has been lavished on his
present play. which is called "The
Pickpockets" and is by c. NJ. S. Nc
Lellan. In order to dispell any mis-
apprehension that may exist as TO the
nature of the play, due, doubtlessly
to the fact that in one Of McLellan's
previous plays, Leah Kleschna," he
depicted the fortunes of a gang Of
thieves, It is definitely stated that "The
Pickpockets" is merely a metaphorlcal
title, and that the play concerns itself
with larger economic questions now
confronting the nation as a whole. The
play is said to be intensely interesting
and thrilling.
