There were a few minor additions to

NURSERY STOCK.
Should Be Protected from Elements
Facts Concerning Eversreens.

Nursery stock of an kinds should
be protected from the wind and sun,
and should be kept moist The cellar
Is an ideal place. A wet covering of
some kind should be kept over the
stock Nursery stock cannot be
planted too soon after It has been re-
celved- 1t IS well to take the stock
out of the package and wet the root
system Immediately If the stock can
not be planted for several DAYS it
should be healed in. BY healing in
is meant digging a trench IN the soil
for the root system of the stock and
covering the roots with rather heavy
soil The trees should be kept in as
dormant a, condition IS possible. This
is accomplished by keeping them in
q cool rather dark place or by healing
them in.
Actual planting operation consists
in trimming the ends Of the ROOFS
making a clean smooth cut. All
Mat1lated roots should be cut back

furnishes q delicious sauce early IN
the spring when no such relish was
anticipated.
To start a bed prepare the soil a.
for any garden. Apply manure and
fork it IN. 1t will not be necessary 10
use commercial fertilizer or lime, IN
less some is on hand. The rows should
be from six to eight inches deep Drop
the cuttings in the row Is 10 - inches
apart and cover them with two or
three inches of dirt. If the bed is 10
be in one corner of the garden the
plants may be sci Is inches apart in
must not be covered with six inches %
dirt Immediately. but by drawing DIRT
into the rows through the season the
furrows will be filed gradually.
Give the bed fairly good care dur
ing the first year and do not attempt
to cut any stalks for the table tho hrst
sumner. However, the plants will be
ready to furnish some food for the
table after a sumer's growth. If an
old bed is not accessible from which
to secure ripe cuttings, go to neigh
Dor or a nurseryn1an and get enough
for your own bed, which
should be obtained at reasonable
prices One large old plant could be
spaded up and set in many parts, each

be to late to spray.
It is safe to spray with this strong
material up to the time when the
leaves are about a. quarter or half
an inch in length. It is true that
ner leaves will not be injured They
will grow out rapidly and one will not
realize that the tips of the first I'M
folding leaves have been burned. All
whose trees have not been sprayed
and whose leaves have not emerged
any more than suggested should apply
their strong lime sulphur spray i'm
mediately. This is disagreeable ma
terial TO apply, and if it gets into
ones eyes IS likely to cause much dis
comfort. 1t is. therefore, we'll to
grease ones face and hands we'll with
vaseline and wear glasses or goggles.

greater numbers, and give quicker

animal except poultry. Farmers of
the South and West particularly have
awakened to the merits of the hog and
are rapidly increasing their output Of
pork and their bank accounts
The hog has no rival as a consumer
