On every farm where there is u
flowing spring, there should be grow
ing bed of Water Cress. The seed
should be sown in the mud along the
edge of the water just below the
spring head. 1t terminates easily and
the plants will spread until they have
filled the spring bed. Cress grows
about six inches above the water and
fiourishes only in running water. The
warm spring water keeps the plants
growing and green all winter and III

the cress plants can be cut off and
served up like lettuce. 1t is a deli

celery in relish, while the cost is next
to nothing. There is a strong demand
for it in all the larger towns and in the
cities and it is very profitable.
The Cape market is never supplied
although it would absorb many dollars
worth. Some is shipped in from St.
Louis. 4 good bed of cress would re-
