START FOR STRAWBERRY BED
Medium Lolm That Is Deep and Re-
tentive Of Moisture, Yet Well
Drained, Gives Eest Results.
by f. II FAIL)

In selecting land for strawberry
growing, avoid very sandy as well Gs
very heavy and POORLY drained soil
A medium loam that is deep and re-
tentiye CT moisture, yet wei! drained.
will give best results. Sand soil with
southern exposure will produce an
carly crop. but is usually Rcking in
moisture when most needed, therefore
requiring special attention in the way
OF irrigation and mulching.
Cool, heavy soil with northern ex.
aosure should be selected II a late
crop is degired. Low land, if well
drained, may be uged. Sod land is rot
desirable for two reasons. First. be-
cause Of its poor physical condition.
and second, danger OF damage by the
white grub. which is usually abundant
Oh sod land and very destructive in D
newly set strawberry field.
Land that has been planted to hoed
crops, to which liberal annual applica.
tons 0f stable manure have been ap.
piled for one or more years and kept
free ffcm weed seeds bY frequent cuI-
tiyations, may be considered as well

Thorough preparation of land in the
way Of blowing and narrowing will r3-
pay all extra expense. II stable ma
nure Is to be applied to land that has
been cropped the previous season it
should be plowed deeply, the manure
then spread and narrowed in, followed
by second plowing Of medium depth
and very thorough narrowing. By
this method a fine preparation is
Given, while the manure is properly
placed to feed the strawberry plants
which root deeply, rather than the
young weeds.

The Only way Of fighting the aphis

an oily substance which causcs their

HAVE FLOWERS IN THE HOUSE

Girls, have some flowers! No
matter how tiny your house is, nor
how few and humble the plants, have
some.
Do not keep your flowers in your
bedrooms, for they will freeze if you
are the sensible kind of a girl who
sleeps with the windows wide open.
Make a shelf for them in a sunny
window, or cover a table with oil
cloth. Have flowers just one winter
and they will add so to the beauty
and coziness of the house that you
will have them always.
