STRAWBERRIES
FOR HOME Use
In Setting Out a Strawberry
Bed for Home Use, Select
Long Fruiting Varieties
USE GREAT CARE IN PLANTING
March and Early April Best Time Of
Year for Starting Young Plants

(By c. A. Ketfer, Division OF E1ten-

(By c. A. Ketfer, Division Of Exten-
sion,, University of Tennessee.)
In setting strawberry bed for home
use, varieties should be used that win
give long fruiting season and fruit
Of fine quality; for preserving, firm
fruit is wanted, but for the table use
this Is not essential. Michel's Early,
Lady Thompson, Aroma or SW, and
Candy, ripen in the order named, and
are excellent for home use. A row
of each, one hundred feet long, should
provide an ample supply for a large
family. Choose rich, well drained
soil, and plant two feet apart in rows
three feet apart. In setting, be care
full to plant to the exact depth they
stood before, and tramp firmly. March
and early April is the best time for
planting. Cultivate well throughout
the season, turning the runners into
the rows. By fall the rows should be
well matted and at least eighteen

all loose or lightly rooted plants cross
wise Of the rows with a potato hook,
and in December or January cover the
bed very lightly with clean straw.
The straw cover should be so thin that
the strawberries will grow up through
1t in the spring. Its only purpose is
to keep the fruit clean.
AS soon as the crop is gathered, bar
of with turning pillow, leaving row
Of plants six inches wide. Distribute
manure in the burrows, then thin the
plants to fifteen inches apart and cul.
tivate well throughout the season. In
this way a strawberry bed can be cul-
tivated for years, though in CONNER
cial culture It is customary to take
not more than two crops from a plan
tation.

Kidney, Bladder and URIC ACID
troubles bring misery to many. When
the kidneys are weak or diseased
these natural filters do not cleanse the
blood sufficiently, and the poisons are
carried to all parts of the body. There
follow depression. aches and pains,
heaviness, droWsiness, irritabillty,
headaches, chilliness and rheumatism
In some people there are sharp pains
in the back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes OBJ
stinate dropsy. The uric acid some
times forms into gravel or kidney
stones. When the uric acid affects the
muscles and joints. it causes lumbago
