FARMING ON THIS r. FARM
Of ground in one season, provided care
is taken to make the right combina-
ton. A scheme like this is feasible:
Peas, followed by cabbage, beans.
tomatoes or celery.
Onions, beets, beans and squash, fol-
lowed by kale. turnip, kohlrabi or rad
ishes.
Lettuce. followed by beans and to-
matoes.
=. Spring spinach, followed by beans
and tomatoes.
Early carrots, followed by spinach,
kale, turnips and winter radishes.
Early corn. followed by a second
crop of corn, by beans, tomatoes or
celery.
For interoropping the following may
be used:
Radishes with beets, carrots or pars-
nips, tomatoes OF corn.
Squashes, pumpkins, with corn.
Early onions with cauli1ower or cab
bage.
Lettuce with early cabbage, corn or
tomatoes.
Space in the garden may be saved
by planting corn between alternate
rows of potatoes after the last cult
walton, and when the potatoes are har-
vested winter turnips may be planted,
thus keeping the ground busy all the
season. If early peas are planted three
feet apart corn may be started be.
tween the rows, and when the peas
are or squash seeds may be put in. 1t
is even possible to have pole beans
climb up the cornstalks, although this
is carrying intensive culture to Z.
tremes.
When the ground is to be kept COW
cred all the season, it is necessary to
nave 1t rich, to cultivate it thoroughly
and to use the hoe freely from spring
until fall If the owner Of a little place
Is willing to observe these three points,
1t will be easy for him to grow an
amount Of produce that will amaze his
neighbors. Fall blowing is essential
and manure should be spread quite
literally and covered to a depth Of
eight to twelve inches.
What to grow in the hotbed in order
to get ready for this sort of intensive
gardening depends on your market or
what you want to use it for. Leaf
lettuce and radishes are always in de-
mand IN early spring. They are some
what easier to grow than other crops.
For lettuce start a small bed early and
transplant in space 4 by 5 inches when
they have grown to the second leaf.
The sofl should be moist, but not wet.
Do not water them until after the
plants get a good start.
This matter of watering Is a parhcu-
lar part Of the work. Water should
be applied only during the early hours
Of the day and when the sun is shin.
ing. Plenty Of ventilation Is also inn
portant and the edge Of the sash
should be raised according to the heat
Of the day, closing up in time to hold
the heat after the SUN goes down.
RadIshes are easy to raise, but If they
are forced too much they are liable to
go mostly to tops. A few days longer
in growing will give them better quail
ity. An small. imperfect seed ought to
be sifted out. The stand should aver.
age from one-half inch to an inch I'm

five inches apart.
It usually pays to start early

other tender vegetables in the hot.

before the ground is warm enough for
them. 80 d" ~ " .et' a

The game OF base ball between
the Aarshffeld and Grand Rapids
teams played al MarshfieId was
quite a good game until the seventh
Inning.

entR' MarshfieId was leading by
ore run-7the score being 3 to 2. In
tne seventh bum decision by
Ire ump peeVed Bremen and he
new up his hands and quit. Huber
,ult into the center garden and
finished the game. MarshfieId scor-
I'd six runs in this lnning and put
4e game where it would keep even
IN a hot day in Marshfield.
The playing OF Huber was pro
ssted by the MarshfieId team-the
claim being that he was not resi-
dent of Grand Rpids. The pro
test seems to be just and it is more
-Lan likely that Huber will not again
