FOUR FISH ON ONE CAST.
Two Perch and Two Trout, According to
This Anglers Story.

1t is something after all to be the hero
of record, even if it does not mean
much, and perhaps the successful land

bewildering. and for few minutes |
could make neither head nor tail of the
action that was going on below At last
on the line coming closer / cav there
was a good sized perch on the highest
dropper. and presently | saw a second
perch on the lower, while a moment later
| was aStOniShed to see that my trout
was also still on the point with smaller
trout on the dropper next him.
None of the fish were large of course,
though the perch next me was quite

off with alternate strokes of the oars.
Strange to say, l reached the low shelly

and slipping out Of the boat drew the
whole string ashore in triumph.
The four fish were about two pounds
in weight, and | had an applauding gal

whom it took me all my time to restrain
from rushing into the shallow water to
scoop out the struggling fish when they

Garden Crop Succession.

But few of us realize what our GAR
dens can be made to produce under
good cultivation. My neighbor was left
a poor widow with a large family of
young children. She had a good sized
garden and | offered, with the help of
her 12-year-old hoy, TO make it help out
the dinner table.
\ former tenant told me that one
part was too shallow TO Fay for plant-
ing l found it averaged about a foor

yield
We applied good barn manure liber-
ally, forked it under and planted the
doubtful piece to dwarf peas aud at the
same time planted radishes between
the rows, and when these were gone
transplanted the lettuce plants raised
from seed scattered among the cur
rant bushes. Soon as the peas were
gathered there We're three pickings)
we followed them with tomatoes.
These gave an abundant supply of ripe
fruit. We raised, therefore four crops
from shallow soil considered worthless.
the only extra labor required being two
or three waterings.
BY starting earlier we could have
taken off crop of spinach before the
peas were planted by planting the for
mer the fall previous. Again by doing
what Is often practiced. reducing the
branches of the tomatoes to two and
tying these to stakes, we should have
had room for rows of turnips between
them, planting in early September.
The real capacity. therefore, of this
waste piece was six crops To sue
coed with such heavy drafts on the
soil, as much first class barn manure
should be applied as can be dug under,
and little FERTILIZER might be added
with advantage to the tomato crop.
All our gardens can be at least double
cropped by selecting early varieties of
tomatoes, cabbage, beets, cucumbers, car
rots, while squaShes, cabbages, tomatoes,
turnips, celery and spinach can be plant
ed after many early crops. Great crops
of squasheS have been raised on the
same land from which a crop of early
cabbage had been taken. the cabbage
having been started under glass | once
raised large crop of squashes on an
acre from which / had marketed 223
bushels of early peas. besides having
four nay wagons of most excellent green
fodder for my herd of COWS. The squash
seeds were planted 9X9 i'll rows close to
the peas when nearly ready to pick and
the ground thoroughly narrowed as soon
as the peas were off, 500 pounds of fer
tilizer having been scattered broadcast.
BY emitting every third row of early po-
tatOes on land not too heavy, a crop of
squaShes can be raised the same season.
The secret of success in heavy cropping
is high manuring; it will be necessary,
for success, to tighten the ground before
planting each new crop; in the garden
cutting deep into it with the corner of
the hoe will answer very well. Thin ear
ly such crops as radishes. beets etc, so
that they shall not be kept back.
For double-cropping purposes (they are
good also for standard crops | would
recommend such early varieties as the
