time as to damage suits. against
the county is beginning to show
itself in the small talk handed out
on the streets from day to day. It
is said that the people living along
the new public road from the city
limits to Kannapolis contemplate
bringing suit against the county
for damages, claiming great injur-
les Oh account of the building of
the new macadam road. 1t is not
presumed, however, that every

ages. It is a great pity that such
a feeling against a good road

What May Be Done With Plot Tween.
ty by Fifty Feet.
A space 20 by so feet may under in
tensive culture be made to yield fresh
vegetables for a small family through
half the year. With 40 by so feet or
so by 100 there can be a garden spell
ing riotous plenty.
Have the spading done as early as
possible, use thoroughly rotted ma
nure and supplement 1t with some
good commercial fertilizer, either
broadcasted and raked in or put in
hills or drills.
1t is a waste Of seed, strength and
time to plant garden in poor soil.
The seed will come up, the spindling
plants will be harder to work than if
they were luXuriant, and the resultant
crop will be mostly conspicuous by it's
absence. So. if it be impossible to do
more, make small rich beds, four feet
wide and as long as the manure holds
out, and SOW them crOSSwiSe with
such things as radishes, lettuce, creSS,
parsley, beets and onions. Make the
rows a foot to~eighteen inches apart
or SOW the radishes broadcast. Let
tuce also yields more for broadcast
sowing. Pull out the thriftiest as soon
as edible and leave the rest to grow.
Radish tops make excellent greens,
something better favored than mus
tard. BY sowing thickly you can have
dishes of green's.
Say the garden is 40 by so feet, this
is something what the planting Of 1t
should be: Dwarf early peas, medium
early and late peas, beets, early and
later; beans in succession, including
bush limas; carrots, radishes, toma-
toes, cucumbers, peppers. Do not adj
venture upon corn unless it be sweet
corn planted on the pea space as Sec
ond crop, to come in just before frost.
Make an asparagus bed all across one
end of the plot, setting two-year-old
roots and fertilizing the bed heavily In
early summer just after cutting ceases.
Peas are so hardy they may be
planted before snow is past, provided,
Of course, the ground is right when
they go in. Make it fine and light,
cover the seed at least three inches
deep, then tramp the earth over them,
setting the feet so one track touches
the other. A quart Of seed will SOW
a hundred feet Of drill the proper
thickness. An ounce Of beet seed will
SOW the same row length.-Circle Mag
