work just as well by hand, but n con

cd Is the only practical one. When

Is especially desirable that the spading
be done as early rs possible, ms the
sooner II Is done the easier II will be
TO get the ground In condition. The
ground should he worked down only

ground sooner Il left In the rough than
when well worked down. II Is ex.
tremcly desirable Ia get such crops
ms early peas, early potatoes. and early

ground Is dry enough, and It Is often
possible TO get these crops planted a
week or two earlier by following this

Early peas require n rather rich

While the sandy lonm Is 20 be pre-

The first paintings should be of such

Here Is u group OF suits for spring
that even the Impractical cye-at II

Signers have wandered into green
fields and pastures new, gathering
ideas. and are displaying the results

ton on coats and to have agreed that

In coats the most noticeable inno-

ONIONS.

Onions can be produced on almost
any good garden soil, and constitute
one of the standard crops found in nj
most every garden. The usual plan in
the home garden Is to plant sets In
rows far enough apart to suit the meth
cd Of cultivation to be followed. The
sets need not be more than . or 3
inches apart In the rows.
Onion sets may he planted as sodN
ns the ground can be worked and be-
fore frosts are over. Some kinds may
be planted In the autumn. The potato
or multlpller onion can be planted from
sets in the autumn and will produce
excellent early green onions.
Onions may be grown from seed eli
Their by starting the seed In the hothed
and tranSplanting to the open ground
or by drilling In rows directly in the
garden. With good soil and proper
care 1t Is possible to produce good
sized bulbs from seed IN n single sea
sou.
Onions require frequent shallow cul'
ovation, and II may be necessary To re-
sort To hand work In order to keep
the crop free from weeds.
II II Is desired Ia use the onions as
green or bunch onions they may be
pulled at any time after they are large
enough. otherwise they should be al
lowed To grow until they reach matur'
lty. If the onions start To throw NJ
seed stalks these should be removed,

MUSkM ElONS.

A sandy loan with plenty of well.
rotted manure Incorporated In the soil
Is well adapted to the production Of
muskmelons. The muskmelon Is II hent-
loving crop. requiring Il long growing
season. about four months, and cannot
be planted until the ground has be-
come warm. For this renson II Is use
less Ia attempt TO grow the muskmelon
IN sections whore the growing season
IL not sufficiently long or where the
temperature Is not uniformly high. The
northern portion OF the United States
Is not suited to the growing of this
crop for the reasons cited above,
II Is advisable To start the plants
In berry boxes. or on sods In the hot
bed, transferring these Ia the open
ground after the ground has become
warm. In this way considerable time
can be saved and much better results
obtained. II Is n good plan to place
plenty of well-rotted manure In the
hills, which should he about O feet

ed so that four good strong plants may
