BURBERRY CULTURE.

The man in Ghis country who has
given the most time and study to the
culture of blueberries Ia Professor
Frederick f. Covilie Of the United
states Department Of Agriculture. and
he IL the author OF very interesting
bulletin on the subject.
1t does not follow that the man
who has devoted the most time to a
plant will have the greatest success
with it. How many times we see a
man or woman somewhere who knows
little about scientific farming or gar
dening who has A loved plant that Jus,
seems TO flourish because 10 Ia loved.
Meeting a professional gardener or
florist soon after. he will say that that
particular plant IL just next to impos-
sible to grow and not worth bothering
with.
This IL no reflection on Professor
Coville as a grower OF blueberries, as I
have no reason for doubt on this
score. II Is directed more partlcu-
larry TO those who may feel that there
Is no use trying.
Only A week or so ago I saw a high
bush blueberry with long. gracefully
twisted stems growing in clay soil In
a Connecticut garden. The plant was
all of three or four feet high and the
top as many feet In diameter. It must
have been growing there for several
years. transplanted from its native
home. II this can be done with wild
plants. plants that have been produced
under cultivation should naturally be
less difficult to transplant.
Professor Coville emphasizes the i'm
portance OF acid soil for blueberries

are to be planted soil from the woods

garden soil that has been frequently
MANFRED and has had no lime applied
Is also likely to be acid, particularly il
the soil Is somewhat clayey.
Ordinary garden soil will become
acid by spring II a lot OF decayed
leaves are turned under this autumn.
Professor Covilie recommends a soil
composed OF a mixture OF sand and
peat, either bog or upland peat. Soil
aerstiun n also considered important
That Is accomplished by frequent cul-
tivation. Permanent but moderate soil
moisture is another requirement. Al
kaline soils are unsuitable.
The bushes should be set eight feet
apart each way, as when they reach
maturity they will nearly cover the
intervening spaces
The ground between the plants must
be kept free from all other vegetation

SELECTING SEED CORN.

Select seed corn for two years supply
and store where It will not freeze in
winter.
Ears should be selected from the
field as late as possible before frost.
Each ear chosen should be taken from
stalk which has ripened. and the
husks on the ear should have started
TO dry out. The stalks and ears in
each ease should be vigorous and Of
the type generally desired, of mode
rate height, well leaved and stand
ing erect, with ear attached to
the stalk at height OF from three to
ive feet, depending on the variety.
These ears should be husked and
plac"d in some dry, warm place hav-
ing ample ventilation and free from
mice sand rats. The ears should not
touch one another. Later they should
be resorted and all poor ears dis
earded so that only good sound corn
Is retained.
Observation end experience proves
that the yield OF corn in New York
Is lower than II should be because
too much corn Is grown OF varieties
which will not mature under the
climatic conditions where they are
grown.
