For the treatment of trees or shrubs

Early Pasture Eor Hoes.

If a patch of rye seeded last fall is
available for spring hog pasture the
cost of producing pork can be consid-

be had, then sow at the earliest possi-
BILE moment a mixture Of oats. field
peas and rape.
Sow two or three lots of this and
change from one to the other. The
oats will provide earliest grazing. the
field peas next and the rape, if not

must be in proportion to the amount
of production required of the land
Such treatment will build up instead
of wear out a plot of ground. These
examples may be varied as circum
stances suggest.
Lettuce. radishes. onions. peas. car.
rots and string beans may be grown
and supplied to customers between the
1st Of May and the middle Of June
The ground can then be prepared in Il
few days for the succeeding crops. and
it will be found that between the lSt
of July and the LIST of October a full
crop Of these products can be grown:
Celery, sweet corn, late potatoes. beets.
cucumbers. cabbage. lettuce, spinach.
onions and turnips.
At first glance it would seem that
there are not many vegetables on the
list that could be Sown successfully as
late as midsummer. but those tested
form quite an array. Bush beans. car
rots. lettuce, beets. corn. parsley. peas,
radishes. spinach and turnips all give
satisfactory results when sown as late
as August. They should be put in as
near the 1st Of July as possible to
make all growth possible before frost
The hardy ones cause no anxiety. as
they endure light frosts The tender
sort, such as beans. cucumbers and
spinach. may be saved from the cold
by a covering of old rugs and similar
material
AS the gardener cannot duplicate the
cool. moist conditions of spring for the
termination of August seeds. he must
do the next best thing and firm the soil
well after sowing This helps to draw
the moisture in the soil where the
seedlings can use it. When they have
made start the surface is to be stir
red to form a mulch.
Bush beans sOwn rs late as Aug. 10
have been successfully harvested by
Oct 10. In another case an Aug !
sowing of peas yielded full sized pods
in less than seven weeks. These were
an extra early sort. The crop. how
ever, was not so heavy as from spring
sown seed.
Lettuce planted in early August bore
leaves large enough to use before the
middle Of September and well formed
heads from the first week in October
until the ground was cleared
This is only a suggestive outline OF
the scheme Of growing succession
crops. There are wide possibilities
along that line. and it is feasible to go
still further and sow rape as soon as
the vegetables are off in September
and October BY Nov. this will be in
condition for forage. Hogs and sheep
can feed from this field of rape for sew
eral weeks before winter sets in. and
it is again ready for them in the spring.
So far as the effect on the soil is
concerned. it is possible to continue the
double cropping of vegetables indef-
nitely The land will most likely show
Improvement under such methods of
cultivation. but a rotative scheme is
advisable on small tracts as well as
large ones.

Over 400 types Of soils are list
ed in the United States. To farm
properly on these various types
demands clear thinking and good

Asparagus is a hardy plant. II does
not need a winter mulch to keep it
from being killed by freezing. but it

earlier next spring and better stalks as
well. And this means a great deal
