the Cleveland Indians for second
place.
Under ordinary conditions, with
nearly so games yet to be played,
A., such a margin would be considered
but a slight handicap, to be easily
overcome by slight but consistent
upIift. However, the local American
leaguers give no indication of being
able to cut down this lead. Rather,
they appear headed for a place even
lower than that they now occupy.
Just why the Sox are not hotter
contenders is one Of the mysteries
of this baseball race, and will remain
so for long time to come. The team
has batting and fielding strength,
and at the start of the year had a
pitching staff which was second to
none in the league. At present only
one or two of the pitchers are de-
pendable quantities.
There is something Of cavity at

An important bulletin will soon be
issued by the Maine Department OF
Agriculture on The Growing Of
Onions, Cabbages and Squash. .
Speaking Of the onions it will say:
Kinds of Soil
The onion will grow and mature
upon any well-drained soil that / have
ever seen in the State Of Maine They
do finely upon drained muck land that
has had some sand mixed into It.
They will do well upon a gravelly loan
soil and the same is true upon the
river intervales. Clay, Of all the soils,
is the worst and the most difficult to
handle. not owing to its lack Of fer
tility but owing to the fact that it
bakes so hard after every rain. 1t
would hardly be wise for any man
with clay soil TO attempt to raise
onions commercially unless first suff1-
cient muck had been added to the soils
to free 1t from baking.
The kind of soil, however, is Of sec
ondary importance to the growing Of
successful crop of onions. Among the
first essentials soil should be thoroughly

variety that will grow and mature under
Maine climatic conditions. If these three
conditions are given, il then follows that
the crop must be properly cared for dur

Soil Preparation
To make plain the kind Of preliminary
treatment of ground upon which onions
are 10 be planted. would say that this
particular field ought to be free from
weeds and witch grass. Witch grass is
the pest OF most Maine fields that have
been cultivated for years. This is due to
a lack of thorough cultivation at the time
the crops have been planted and TO the
old-tashioned way Of handling a crop with
a hand hoe. When it comes to killing
witch grass with hand implements /, is
impossible. II is not impossible. but it is
improbable. l, takes too much hard work.
II piece of ground that is infested with
witch grass Is to be taken ii should first
be planted TO corn or potatoes. and heavt-
Is dressed with barnyard manure.
During the season no green things
should be allowed TO exist on the ground
except the crop planted for any time. In
other words, it should be cultivated either
with horse or with hand hoe between
and around the hills every week from
June first to the end Of the season. and
no weed at all-witch grass or other
weeds-should be allowed to grow.
IF this same piece of ground is to be
.ba m Man.
gelwurzel beets. beans or corn-it should
also be heavily dressed and the second
wear no green thing should be allowed
upon II except the crop planted. The
same rule applied the first year should be
followed in its preparation. narrowing it
every week At this time il is safe to as
sumo that the ground Is decently free
from weeds that will easily terminate.
especially If lime has been applied either
Of the two years.
II is very important thing that the
ground be as free as possible from weed
seeds inasmuch as the onions are 70 be
planted in rows a foot apart and the
onions not to be more than an Inch, or
an inch and a half, apart in the rows. If
weed seeds are in the soil from the pre-
yious seeding, they come up in the rows
and 1t is irksome work indeed TO get down
on ones knees and pull them out as must
be done IL there is any size to the patch
PLANTED. There viii be few seeds intro
duced from the manure that I have re-
commended be applied in October Of the
fall before the onions are to be planted.
but unless the manure is especially bad
with weed seeds-it Will not seriously In
.erfere with the crop.
