Of plants must have air. 1t also Ia true
that they must not be given too much

ways to be avoided.
Just the reverse treatment is true
Of clay soil SO far as compacting goes.
for it is the nature of clay to COM
pact itself. and instead. therefore, of
rolling the soil, we need to pulverlze
1t thoroughly before the plants are set
and stir 1t frequently while plants are
growing in order that the process of
decay of the vegetable matter in the
soil may be normally maintained.
Therefore. cultivation should be deep
er in clay than in sandy soils. AS a
rule. cultivation should be at least
four inches deep.
Having your soil In perfect condi-
tion, the next essential for big red ber-
ries is perfectly developed plants. If
you have purchased plants Of high
quality from a reputable source, you
may with confidence go forward with
your work, and 1t ia important that
you make all the conditions comfort
able for the plants and as encouraging
to productiveness as 1t is possible to
do. One of the important things to
this end Is the removal of all buds and
blossoms from each plant during the
first season Of its growth. When this
is done all OF the strength of the grow

and upon these depend the quality and
character of the fruit yield. There
fore, be sure to check the plants ten
dency to fruit while 1t is yet young
by pinching of each fruiting stalk.
One man will easily do this work on
one acre in half day.
Then there Is the necessity OF re
moving surplus runners. BY surplus
runners we mean those young plants
that develop after you have formed
your system. II your system is the
single hedge row. then you will permit
two runner plants to grow and will
layer them directly in line with the
mother plant If you have adopted the
double-hedge-row system. you will al
low each mother plant to mature four
runner plants, and these runner plants
will be layered x fashion. the mother
plant forming the center of the X. Or
II you desire to grow your plants by
the hill system. then you will allow no
runner plants whatever to form. but
the mother plant itself will be encour-
aged to develop a great fruiting sys-
tenn. The fewer runner plants the
more vigorous the mother plant will
be, of course. as the production of the
runner plants draws heavily upon the
physical resources Of the mother plant.

BOIL THE WATER
THE ADVICE GIVEN

DIR. T. Henry Davis made the follow
ing statement to the Palladium this
afternoon regarding the water supply
in Richmond:
''On Tuesday of this week the gal
leries cot the Richmond City Works
were submerged with river water and
the same day the water was shut on
from this source by the company and
for two days water was furnished
from the reservoir. Today the com
pany resumed the supply of water
from the galleries and therefore
would recommend the citizens OF
Richmond to boil all drinking water
as an extra precaution against disease
There may be no danger but it would
be best to take this action"

RELIEF COMMITTEE ISSUES
STATEMENT TO THE PUBLIC

under the greatest difficulties, as
there is no gas and little coal.
Another great difficulty is the wa
ter supply The water works will not
be in operation for days, in fact the
damage to that plant cannot yet be
fully ascertained. The people there
fore. who were thoughtful enough,
have caught up all the rain water that
was possible with every conceivable
sort of vessel, for cooking and drink
ing. This situation again does not
only apply to the residents Of the flood
ed districts, but also to every inhabi-
tant OF Dayton. 1t seems to the COM
mittee that one OF the greatest calamt-
ties is the lack of heat, light and wa
ter, with no immediate prospect of
any remedy, as the tangle of wires
and broken pipes will absolutely pro-
hibit such service even though the
distress on this account is going to be,
and now is. most dishearteninx.
There is no question that there has
been a great deal of exaggeration
about fires and new floods from break
ing of reservoirs, which is very un-
fortunate for the sake Of those who
have friends in Dayton, but we can
truthfully say that no statement has
appeared that has exaggerated the size
of the flood. II We can imagine a pop
ulation about three times the size of
Richmond, and add to that the fact Of
hov OF he h,sc let TOT
fro ms to 30 feet under water, we can
get some idea of the magnitude Of the
Dayton situation, and the appalling de-
struction wrought to property alone.
There have been no serious fires On
ly few isolated houses. We want to
say there was positively no hotel or
other big building burned nor any resi-
dental section; nor have there been
any new floods. We say this to re-
lieve many anxious people.
Until we get additional information
from the Dayton Relief Committee the
local committee feels sure that suffi.
cient clothing has been dispatched to
care for all this class OF sufferers. We
feel sure however, that food will be
needed and this should be cooked Cit
liens can do no better than to bake
bread, boil eggs or any other thing to
eat which can be conveyed safely.
The local jobbers are about out of
supplies and the shipping facilities be-
ing all tied up we must fall back on

We will get them to Dayton.
The committee wants to state the
suffering must be great for days to
come. Food and money should be put
at the disposal of the committee to
give this relief. Farmers and people
in neighboring towns are urged to
send their supplies Of food to the Com.
mercial club at Richmond so that they
can be transported.
Other flooded towns are also calling
for aid and all supplies can be used
