Renewing Old
Strawberry Beds.
Leroy Cady, Assistant Profess
sor of Horticulture, Mime
sofa Experiment Station.

:. !. !. !. + :: !. X j. + + + f. !. j. + !.
Some growers prefer to fruit straw
berries only one year, but where the
beds are reasonably free from weeds
and the plants are in good condition,
it is customary and quite satisfactory
to fruit the plants two or even three
years in succession. Where this is to
be done, the foliage should be moved
as soon as the fruit is picked, usually
early in July. A scythe, or if the beds
ore quite large, an ordinary grass
mower, will do the work if run quite
close over the beds. This material
should be either raked or burned of
the plants. In a small bed it is safer
to rake and burn at the side of the
bed than to attempt burning over the
patch. If the field is to be burned, the
grass must be thoroughly dry, so
that fire will pass over it very quick
ly. If it is wet and the fire does not
burn rapidly, the plants are often Sc
riously injured. This method helps to
keep in check insects and some of the
diseases attacking strawberries.
AS soon as the beds are cleaned, the
old plants should be thinned out to
about six inches apart, leaving the
rows not over foot wide Thorough
cultivation should be given them the
rest of the season. If the land is not
very rich, it is good plan to open a
trench along the rows several inches
| deep, and fill it with thoroughly rotted
manure, covering this with soil again.
One of the easiest ways to- remove
the old plants is to pillow furrow on
either side of the row, leaving a row
about twelve inches wide. Then thin
any old or diseased plants from this
row, leaving young, vigorous plants
about six inches apart.
| The soil may be cultivated back in
to the row, and any weeds or plants
between the rows should be thorough
ly worked out Thorough cultivation
and care should be given the plants
from now on, the same as should be
given new plants set in the spring. II
this is done very often, the second
crop will be as good as the first.
