ONION CULTURE IN THE SOUTH.

How to Prepare Seed Beds, Sow
Seed, Transplant, Cultivate and
Cure-The Best Varieties.
Messrs. Editors: Some people
think they can't raise good onions
in the South. but this Is all mis-
take. Where the land is good and
has plenty Of moisture, it is no trou-
BILE to make 400 bushels per acre

tried about twenty kinds but find
Prizetaker and Danvers Globe for
yellow, Red Wethersfield for red,
and White Italian. Silver Skin and
White Pearl for white all good on

are Prizetaker and Red Wethersfield.
The best white Is White Pearl Seed
should be sown in January, IL pos
sible In hotbed. The next best place
is to burn brush or large log heap
and when cooled off dig up; leave
the ashes and SOW the seeds In little
drills, say 3 inches apart and / inch
deep, several to the inch. l have
burned those heaps like they do to-
bacco plant beds. That is, select a
rich place In a thicket or woods and
make pile OF logs 16 or 20 feet long
and feet wide. After it has burn
ed about an hour move 1t up about
6 feet and burn again until you get
your bed as large as you wish. OF
course. you have to add some fresh
logs and brush occasionally.

The Best Paying Acre on the Farm.

Messrs. Editors: The man who de-
MES his garden the first place on the

city, has not learned the art of en-
joying living, nor does he prize
health and happiness as he should.
One acre planted in vegetables Of all
kinds, thoroughly MANFRED, with
barnyard manure when possible,
thoroughly cultivated, as soon as one
vegetable is exhausted planted over,
will pay better than five acres plant
ed to any other crop.

should learn, is to let the machine
alone while the hatch Is coming off.
The thermometer will run up several
degrees when the chicks begin to
struggle for liberty, but it won't
hurt the hatch. Keep the door
closed and don't open it until the
hatch Is through. 1t has a drying
effect and causes the she'll to stick
to the chick and prevents it moving
about In the shell to work its way.
After the Chick Hatches.
After the chicks hatch they tend
to crowd toward the light, and 1t
sometimes happens that those in the
front part Of the incubator become
so hot by being crowded together
that they pant.
Impure air may also cause them
to pant Whether caused by too
much heat or by impure air, the
painting Of the chicken Ia unnatural
and injurious. and should be stop
ped either by opening the ventila-
tors SO as to give more air, by re-
ducing the temperature, or by re-
moving some Of the chicks to the
brooder to give those remaining
more room. From the time the
chick pips the she'll until 1t is trans

come hardened and accustomed to

heated in the incubator. or are allow
ed to pant on account OF the lack OF
sufficient fresh air. they are seriously
weakened, and many OF them will
die before they are ten days old
from bowel trouble. In fact, to OBJ
