The Kitchen Garden

selected. AS garden crops must be
planted both early and late in the
season when there is likely to be
heavy dashing rains there is some dan
ger of ordinary forms of nitrogen be-
ing leached out of the soil. On this
account the gardener should resort to
the use of the organic nitrogen in large
measure, especially where it is to be
incorporated with the soil. There is
nothing better for this purpose than
cotton seed meal. It is relatively
cheap, highly efficient as carrier of
nitrogen, and becomes quickly avail
able to meet the needs of most garden
crops, especially when it is supple
mented with nitrate of soda as a COM
potent part of the fertilizer mixture.
or through using as top dressing
Some 700 or 900 pounds of cotton
seed meal may be mixed with phos-
phorus and potash in providing a suit
able formula for the garden, it being
understood, of course, that nitrate of
soda will be used as a top dressing at
the rate of 100 to $50 pounds per acre.
The cotton seed meal will be mixed
with the soil and the nitrate used as a
top dressing say once every two or
three weeks throughout the growing
period The applications should be
relatively light and rather frequent to
secure the best results. A good for.
mula should contain from 8 to 10 per
cent of phosphoric acid, 3 per cent
and upwards of nitrogen, and from 6
to per cent of potash. For sandy
lands the potash had best be increased
to 10 per cent, especially for such
crops as potatoes. Liberal fertilizer
is desirable. The minimum applica-
ton should be 500 pounds per acre,
but for practically all garden and
truck crops at least 1000 pounds
should be used. If there is difficulty
in securing a high enough percentage
from cotton seed meal or other or
ganic carriers of this element, the gar
dener may mix his material together
by sacks so that he can secure any
percentage formula desired. 1t is a
simple matter to do this because as a
rule the gardener is not operating on
a large tract of land, and hence after
all comparatively small amounts of
fertilizer are required. 1t is important
to bear in mind that a high grade cot
ton seed meal should be selected and
that where this is done it will carry
in addition to the nitrogen 2 to 2.5
per cent of phosphoric acid, and LIS
toy per cent of potash. In preparing

A Staple Medicine
For All Families
From Infancy To Old Age a Reliable
Family Laxative is Most Needed
Try This One.

1t is inconceivable in this day of gen.
eral intelligence that any family would
be without a simple remedy for the
minor ills of life, for often by giving
such a remedy in time serious di-
sease can be frustrated and a life
saved.
For example, if at the first sign of
cold a simple laxative-tonie like DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin were given
the beginning of serious lung affec-
ton or of a typhoid fever might be
avoided. And also in headaches, ner-
vousness, ETC., a small dose of this
remedy would relieve the congestion
and replace distress with comfort.
Mothers give it to tiny infants and lit
tie children, and grown people take it
with equally good effect.
Thousands of good American homes
are never without it, among them the
home of DR.. Geo. T. Hull, Prop Hull
Drug Co., Prue, Okla. DR.. Hull has
for number of years recommended
DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin in his
practice and writes that "for stomach
and bowel disorders, worms in chill
dren and general laxative-tonic ii
has no equal" Syrup Pepsin saves
the health of the family, and it saves
doctors bills. 1t is a guaranteed cure
for any form of stomach, liver and
bowel trouble, constipation, indiges.

the formula consideration should be
given to these plant food factors.
Laying OFF Ground.
The next proposition is to lay the
garden off into proper proportions.
One must decide first of all what
crops he desires to grow and the
amount of ground he would like to
devote to each. Having done this the
ground should be prepared in the form
best calculated to suit the needs of
each crop. For Irish potatoes a good
trench should be made and the ma
nure or compost placed therein. Then
scatter the fertilizer along the drill
, row and mix both manure and fer
, tilizer well with the subsoil by means
of hoe, or in a large garden a bull
tongue will answer very we'll. Plant
the potatoes and draw the rows to-
gether The rows in a highly special
lied garden should be rather close to-
gether for most of the work is done
with a hoe; therefore, do not make
them over is inches apart except for
such crops probably as corn and po-
tatoes. These crops should be plant
ed In 2 IL to foot rows, but other
crops may be planted between the
rows which will develop on, or better
! still the garden should be laid out so
that a succession may be followed and
two or three crops raised on the same
area of ground each year.
Among the crops which may be
planted very soon are Irish potatoes,
cabbage and caulifiower plants, onions,
radishes, lettuce, spinach, mustard
beets and peas. OF course, only the
hardy varieties of peas, such as Alas
ka, should be planted now. The hot
bed or cold frame should be requisi
toned Immediately and such seeds as
eggplant, peppers, tomatoes, ETC.,
planted therein to be later transplant.
ed to the open ground. Through the
use of the cold frame the garden may
be made to produce crops from a
month to six weeks earlier than would
otherwise be possible.

A bottle can be obtained at any

economical and is bought by those
who have already convinced them

they are too great shock to any aver
