Especial Dispatch to The Journall
TOWNSVILLE, Ca, April s.-"The
Tosco" is the name which the owners
have chosen for the hotel which will be
the outcome of the. rebuilt, remodeled
Masury house, which they have recent
ly purchased and which they plan to
make one of the prettiest, most up-to-
date hotels in Georgia.
A prize of So in gold was overed for
the name that best suited the owners,
and several hundred were sent in but
although they were of all sorts and
kinds none of them were just exactly
what was wanted, so the name of Tosco
was made as a combination og Thomas

the ladies of the Thomasville Study

II season, especially in the
Il country where a great many
people have never, seen an up-to-
date poultry plant or the conven-
fences connected with poultry, l
find but very few poultry houses
that are equipped with the proper
rests or proper roosting- boards.
Therefore, many houses are I'M
sanitary and lots of. the very best
grade of fertilizer is wasted and
the chicken house is unfit for a
person or fowls to stay in and for
the want of a few minutes work
providing the sleeping quarters for
your fowls conveniently, comfort
ably and cleanly. 1t is so easily
done that no one that has any kind
of a chicken house at all should
leave off this most important thing
any more than a person would
have a uncomfortable bed in an
elegant building. r..
To provide roost and dropping
boards properly in your chicken
house, all the old roost should be

ANSWER.

You can get the Swiss Chard, also
endive seed, from either of the seed
dealers who advertise in the Atlanta
Journal.
II would pay you 20 get a strawberry
catalogue from some of the large
strawberry growers. p. j. Berckman'
of Augusta, Ca, would send you his
fruit catalogue. There are also sew
eral other large growers of straw
berries. At Kitral. n. C., the post
master there will give you the name
of the most prominent ones. The
largest number of strawberries l have
ever seen grown on one place was
where they were grown in beds about
one foot across and three feet be-
tween these beds. The beds were a
solid mass of plants and about every
third year one foot or more about
every two feet apart was cut out all
along the beds and this space fer
tilted heavily and new plants set IN
this space. Between the beds beans
and other vegetables were cultivated.
This kept down the runners. How
ever. I have never had any great ex-
:perience with strawberries and cam
not say IL this is the best way or
not. There are other methods that are
probably better. Usually most grow
ers set out new plants every two
years, put them from six to eight
inches apart in rows and keep them
cultivated.
I have never had any experience
with marketing English peas or truck
age. therefore cannot tell you posi-
lively about this. But l do not be-
lieve that the peas would pay for
shipping purposes, as the early
Florida peas usually satisfy the peo-
pie before the peas in your section
come in, and by that. time the prices
are usually low. as there are so many
other vegetables on the market.
Mr.. ]. P. Berckman, Of Augusta,
could give you more information on
this subject than could.

at $500 to $1,000 per setting from the

The cheapest and best green food
you can get in the winter is alfalfa
