The strawberry is probably the
most widely-grown fruit in the world.
There are varieties adapted to almost
every climate and condition, from
Alaska to Florida. Our cultivated
kinds have been developed from the
Gillian strawberry and the common
wild strawberry. The alpine straw
berry of Europe is the parent of the
ever-bearing varieties which are now
coming into prominence In some
places. They, however, are not as yet
of sufficient value to deserve much
attention. The strawberry is one Of
the first fruits on the market in the
spring, and hence is always welcome.
The best time to set a strawberry
bed is the early spring, as soon as
the land is in good condition and the
plants can be obtained. There is
more moisture as rule at that time;
and this, combined with the cool
weather of spring, gives better grow
ing conditions than August planting.
Plants may also be set in the fall,
If extra attention and care are given
them. 1t does not pay to set the
plants in dry soil or in a dry season.
unless plenty of water for irrigation
purposes is available.
Any land that will grow a good
crop of corn will grow strawberries.
Sod land should never be used If 1t
can be prevented, as 1t is likely to
contain grubs and cut-worms, which
will eat off the roots of newly-set
plants. A well-drained, friable clay
loan Is probably best for straw
berries-a soil that warns up easily
and yet will hold sufficient moisture
for the crop.
Strawberries require a rich soil,
hence it Is we'll to thoroughly ma.
nure the land that Is to be used for
the crop in the fall, and plow under
from four to six inches deep. In the
spring disk, drag and smooth thor
oughly. This gives a loose soil in
which to set the plants, and firm
sub-soil to hold the moisture, and yet
open enough to let the roots through.
A northern slope is to be preferred,
as the plants do not start so early
