For the Gardener

During the last week OF September
and the whole of October tho garden-
er's tasks arc many. Summer has de-
parted. followed BY her train OF blooms.
and those brave flowers that linger to
garden are soon killed by the blighting
herald OF winters approach and only
three trees il their robes of red and
yellow remain TO recall tho glory OF
summer
First of the tender plants that are to
DC housed for winter blooming should
be potted. The matured plants. too
large for indoors. can be preserved by
removing the earth from the roots and
suspendins the geraniums In a mod
crate temperature until spring. Then
trim them back and plant again.
Tuberous begonias, that are not to
be used IN the greenhouse or home,
should be lifted and dried for several
days. after which they may be safely
stored IN the cellar. lmbei the bulbs

care that they do not come in direct

BILE.
Now is the time to plant bulbs for
the spring blooming. and IL the beds
have been occupied by other flowers
during the summer, enrich the soil with
manure.
Cover this well, for the manure must
not come in contact with the bulbs. A
foot is not too deep to dig, for the
roots viii absorb the necessary nour-
ishment from that depth. Hyacinths
and tulips should be planted between
the list and the 18th OF October.
Set tulips in six-inch holes five inches
apart, and hyacinths in holes seven
inches deep and the same distance
apart. II YOU desire the flowers to
come up evenly. see that the holes are
of uniform depth.

LIVE STOCK MEANS sue
CESS.

On nearly every farm livestock
raising IS merely a side line when
1t should be the main thing. There
Is no place where the farmer can
market his corn and roughagc so
proiltably as feeding it TO good
livestock. The market is right at
home in the feed lot, and no long
hauls TO town are necessary. If a
farmer can feed his 6o-cent corn
to good hogs which will pay him
80 cents for it, does he not make
an advance on the price of his corn
and a profit in the fertility return
ed to the soil, as we'll as a saving

Look to the Dahlia and Gamma
tubers stored in the cellar. If it is
too damp mould will have formed
and cause decay if not removed.
Spread the tubers out where the air
is dry and separate the perfectly
good roots from those touched
with mould. If, on the contrary,
the roots look shriveled, put them
near the floor in a damp corner of
the cellar. Ventilation must be
given the cellar during the winter
to keep it dry.
Be very sure that there are no
cracks or loose window panes to
let in draft and frost.
