Hints to the Gardener

CLEMSON COLLEGE, S. c.
Three essentials in gardening are
thorough preparation, judicious use
of fertilizer and frequent and care
full cultivation.
Plan to have a variety as well as
a quantity Of vegetables in your gar
den this year. Remember also tina
you may have fresh vegetables the
year round--in the hot summer as
well as in the winter
Don't for get that rotation of crops

helps keep down diseases and in
sects as well as to supplement the
supply OF plant food in the soil.
Root crops that may be planted
now are beets, turnips, carrots and
parsnips. Satisfy should not be
planted until the latter part of April.
Start your celery seed bed 1t

while the Pascal is a late variety.
1t is not too late to plant aspara-
gus seed. Once you get your bed
started, it will last a lifetime. A
row fifty feet long will supply the
average family. Palmetto is a good
use.
Prepare to fight the insects and
diseases in your garden. Secure a
good spray pump and spray ma

SO-called random drainage as the
drainage of ponds, swales and seepy
bottom lands along streams, is a
form of Improvement which every
money on in the winter and spring
months, states Mr.. H. NJ. Lynde,
drainage engineer for the North Car
DINA experiment station. Although
material and labor are high at the
present time, and likely to continue
so, yet land and farm products are
also high, and it is believed that
money could not be more profitably
spent on many farms this year than
in the tile drainage of the wet spots
in the fields.
The drainage of these places may
often be done without the aid of en-
gineering instruments, provided there
is known to be plenty of fall and
the lines are not too long. Gener-
ally. tile should be laid at an aver
age depth of feet for best results
in average soils.

Preserving Eggs
In | jnne Water

During the spring and early SUM
mer, when eggs are abundant and
reasonable in price, attention should
be given to preserving them for win
ter use. Fresh eggs, properly pre-
served in Waterglass or lime water,
may be kept for eight to twelve
months in excellent condition and
used with good results, Eggs laid
during April, May and early June
have been found to keep better than
those laid later in the season
If satisfactory results are to be
obtained, the eggs should be fresh
and clean, and, if possible, inferile.
Eggs that flot when placed in the
solution are not fresh, and therefore
cannot be preserved. When an egg
is only slightly soiled, a cloth dam
pened with vinegar can be used to
remove such stains. Under no cir
cumstances should badly soiled or
cracked eggs be used for preserving;
if put into the jar while dirty they
will spoil, and washing them takes
off a DreSerVatiVe counting.

The Care of Horses

Do not fail to provide clean, warm
quarters in which your cows, ewes

1t is dangerous to expose young
stock, especially foals and colts, to
spring transforms. A days eX-
posure, if not fatal, may stop a
months growth.
1t is bad policy to turn the stock
to pasture before the grass has we'll
started-bad for the pasture and
bad for the stock.
When the pasture season begins,
turn the stock out at night, instead
of in the morning. Then they will
feed through the night, and net lie
down until the sun has warmed the
air and ground.
Get your horses into condition for
spring Work-the young horses espe-
cially. Many a colt has been ruined
by being put to hard work without
preparation. 1t is the same with
In warm weather, thorough groom
ing is almost as important as feed
ing. Without it, dried sweat, dead
skin and dirt clog the pores, make
the horse uncomfortable and affect
his health.
Look out for sore shoulders and
backs, especially in blowing. Be
sure that your collars fit. A collar
too big is as bad as one too small
If the collar rides up, use martin
gale, or a girth running from trace
to trace, back of the fOrelegs.
When the horses are at work on
warm day. lift up the collars now
anG then to cool their shoulders, and
wipe off the sweat and dirt with
bunch of grass
Wipe off the harness marks on
your horses when you stop work
at noon and at night, and clean the
inside Of the harness, the collars
especially. The salt sweat, drying
on the skin and on the harness, is
what makes the trouble.
II the skin is Wrinkled under the
collar or saddle. baths it with diluted
vinegar or witchazel. If fhe skin is
broken, battle it with clean, warm
water containing a little salt. Fix
the collar, with padding or other
wise, so that it will not touch the
sore spot the next day. A little
carelessness at the beginning may
cause a lot of trouble to you and
suffering to the horse.
Clean your horses at night, water
them, give them good bed and
water them again after they have
eaten their hay, so that they will
not be thirsty all night Let them
rest an hour or more before they
are grained. The observance of
these simple rules Will not cost yo
a cent, and will make Il big difference
il their condition.

land hastens maturity Poor fruitage
and late maturity of crops are in
dications of the need Of phosphorus.
/ Potash-While there is a wide vari-
alton in the amount of potash in the
soils of north Georgia, with the ex-
ception of few types, they are we'll
supplied with this constituent. Owing
to the form in which it occurs in the
soil, however, potash becomes avail
able more slowly than any other
plant food. This is especially true OF
the sandy soils, as the potash is here
locked up in the sandy material in
a very insoluble form. AS rule
potash pays on the sandy lands not
withstanding the fact that they con-
tain more potash than the clay lands
in many cases.
Like phosphorus, the availability
of the soil potash is largely de-
pendent upon the physical condition
of the soil. An abundance of organ
ic matter combined with deep tillage
and thorough cultiva ton would en-
sure enough available potash to meet
the requirements of ordinary field
crops in most cases.
Potash aids in the formation of
the starch and woody material of
plants, giving sturdiness of stalk
and we'll developed branches. 1t is
an especially important fertilizer con-
stituent for all fruit and truck crops
1t accumuIates chiefly in the leaves
and stems of plants, and is largely

1t would not be possible to make a
1922 from cottonSeed meal and 16
per cent acid, as cottonseed meal
contains at the most only about SO
pounds potash per ton. If you were
to mix 1000 pounds of acid phos-
plate with 500 pounds of an ordi-
nary grade of cottonseed meal you
would find this mixture to contain a
little over per cent available nj
trogen and a little over 10 per cent
phosphoric acid, with about 5 per
cent potash. On the other hand, if
you were t omiX equal parts of cot
tonseed meal and acid phosphate you
would obtain a formula containing
approximately 3 per cent nitrogen, 9
per cent phosphoric acid and about
three-fOurthS of one per cent pot
ash. In our judgment this last for
mula would be much more desira Die
Tor use under corn and cotton than
the first named. 1t is true most of
our soils are deficient in phosphoric
acid, but. we think 10 per cent con-
Stitutes an excessive amount of this
material on lands in your section of
the state, whereas we are quite GER
tain that per cent of nitrogen will
not prove so satisfactory as the use
of per cent and upward. While we
appreciate the use of potash under
many conditions in Georgia we be-
lieve it less essential than the 9TH
er two elements mentioned. On the
other hand, the mixture we proposed
for you to use will furnish you with
a larger proportion of potash than
the one you have suggested. If you
have any unleached wood ashes
which you can apply to the land,
scattering them under the drill row
and mixing well with the subsoil so
they will not come in direct contact
with the seed we think it would be
good practic using 500 to 1000
at the present prices for potash, that
we are justified in advising you to
purchase it for use under the soil
conditions prevailing in your section
of the state
