WHAT CULTURE WILL DO FOR CORN.
fifty-five days from termination, but it
is also the best corn to plant for the
early fall markets.
The Country Gentleman is the best
second early variety for the private
family as well as for the retail trade.
The corn is Of delicious quality-con-
sidered the sweetest in cultivation.
Planted on rich ground and given ex-
ira fertilizing and culture, two or three
large ears can be grown to the stalk.
Stowell's Evergreen is the standard
variety both for market and for the
private family. The ears are of large
size, grains deep, tender and sweet, a
vigorous grower, producing one to two
large ears to the stalk. 1t requires
fully sixty days to mature marketable
ears.
To have succession plant every
twelve days. The ground for sweet
corn should be deeply plowed, harrow
ed and rolled until fine and mellow.
Spread well rotted, rich manure in the
furrow, then SOW 400 pounds of a
complete fertilizer to the acre on top
Of the mixture; mix the manure and
phosphate with the earth; drop three
grains twenty inches apart In the row.
Hubbard squash or crook neck pump
kins may be planted in every fifth
row. Give frequent and thorough cul-
ture. Two good workings with the
hoe should be given. In eastern corn
states the varieties referred to are
planted as late as the last Of July.

COAL HEATER.

iron. If the burning surface is much
larger the heat produced is too great
and the beneficial results are lost.
These heaters will burn from three to
five hours without reflling. In plan
ming to protect the orchard in this
way Colorado growers are using 100
of the oil pots per acre. 1t probably
will not be necessary to use this en-
tire number except In exceptional
cases, but should that occasion arise
they think it is better plan to be
ready But for light frosts perhaps
half of this number will be lighted at
first; then as they burn out the other
portion may be used. In this way the
work of reflling can be accomplished
without difficulty.
Common forms of crude petroleum
are not satisfactory, for the reason
that when the oil and pots become
hot the oil boils over, causing much
waste and loss of heat. Growers find.
however, that what is known as gas
oil is fairly free from this trouble, and
it Is the form they are now using In
Colorado. 1t has also been demon
strated that coal pots will answer the
purpose just as well as oil, but
whether they will be as efficient in
practice remains as yet to be seen.
Colorado coal is semi-hard, lights al
most as easily as wood and is there
fore quite different from anything that
is found in the east
Of course the conditions of climate
in Colorado are very different from
those found in the east, and it may be
that the western methods must be
modified. but there would seem to be
no reason why something of this kind
might not be devised which would be
practical in protecting truck crops,
small fruits and even large orchards
if it were thought advisable. The IL
Illustrations are SO simple as to require
no EXPLANATION.

proper oil, so portion of the time he
was obliged to burn kerosene. But in
spite of the fact that the thermometer
fell to % for three or four nights in
succession he was able to save the en-
tire crop of apples on the protected
area, while the fruit on the rest Of his
orchard which was not so protected
was entirely lost. The expense for
equipment and labor. in this case was
about $1,000, but it resulted In an
$4,000 crop. This was certainly cheap
insurance, and the pots are ready for
future use. In another orchard the
owner succeeded in saving an enor-
nous crop Of fruit, while just across
a barbed wire fence in adjoining or
chards the crop was an entire loss.
Since then a number of forms of
heaters, both coal and oil, have been
invented, and many people have equip

POSSIBILITIES IN CORN.

With Special Reference to Several Va
rieties of Sweet Brands.
1t is not too late to consider sweet
corn, of which there are several varie-
ties. The illustration gives an idea
of the high state of perfection to which
any species of corn, sweet or other
wise, can attain when cultivated with
care. The illustration shows the pos
sibilities of the better brands when
properly planted and grown under good
conditions.
A popular standard of sweet corn is
the Early White Cob Cary. The White
Cob has all the good qualities of its
parent and with the added advantage
of having a white cob and pure white
grains. The stalks are of medium
height, stout and stocky, allowing a
close planting. In good land, well fer
tilted, two ears may be grown to the
stalk. 1t is not only the best early
variety, producing marketable ears

Culture Of Chives.

The culture of this plant is simple,
as it will grow in any ordinary gar
den soil. It is usually propagated by
division of the roots, because it does
not seed readily. The roots or clumps
of roots may be purchased at moderate
prices The clumps should be planted
in beds about nine inches apart in
rows which are two feet apart. The
planting may be done in either spring
or autumn. The chives may also be
planted in the border Of the vegetable
garden and make an excellent border.
AS border plant the clumps should
be planted about six inches apart.
The leaves will grow thickly and form
a dense green mat.
