PROPAGATION OF DEWBERRIES
Roots Make Strongest Plants and Are
Generally Used by Nurserymen
for Reproduction.

Dewberries are very easily propa-
gated. They, like the blackberry, may
be prOpagated from suckers that are
likely TO be rather numerous, or from
roots. The roots make the strongest
plants and nurserymen generally re-
produce the dewberry by roots.
The dewberry roots are cut into
small pieces, an inch or two long. and
the roots put In box OF sand or soil.
They are sometimes put In beds I'LL
the roots begin to sprout and start
shoots.
Those who have dewberry vines that
bear well and yield fine berries should
reproduce them as suggested. Often
wild plants are found wO-..I reproduc-

ship at End.

A publie-spIrited man In Fayette
county, Mississippi, gave six regis
tered pigs to the boys and girls pig
club work last year, with the under
standing that each one who received a
pig was to give back to the club one
pig from the first litter and one from
the second. The donated animals
were drawn for by members from each
benf and one from the county at
large. The recipients were very proud
Of their pigs. The six from the first
filters were distributed In December.
II the plan is continued for five years
IL Is estimated that 2O4 registered pigs
will be given away at the close Of that
time, and II Is hoped that purebred
hogs will be found on every farm In
the county. II these plans mature as
IL hoped, the 2O1 which will be avail
able for gifts at the end OF the five
years will be put up at auction and
the proceeds used for a scholarship
to the State Agricultural and Mechan-
ical college. which will be awarded
yearly to the winner OF the county pig
club championship.

POULTRY MANURE BIG ASSET
Fertiiizins Trees-Seems TO En-
courage Weeds.

On poultry and fruit farms the poui-
try manure is a valuable asset for fer
tilizing trees. The Massachusetts sts-
ton recommend the following mixture:
Hen manure. 1900 pounds; high-graGe
sulphate potash, 10 pounds; sixteen
per cent acid phosphate. $50 pounds.
This makes a total Of 1900 pounds Of
fertilizer for orchard use. The approx
innate analysis is nitrogen IL per cent /;
phosphOric acid 3.3 per cent; potash
As per cent.
Poultry manure spread on strawber-
ries seems to induce a rapid weed
and grass growth and Is not conducive
to the production of large quantities
Of fruit. The Massachusetts station
recommended the following mixture Of
poultry manure when IL Is used on
strawberry patches: Hen manure, 1000
pounds; nitrate of soda, 100 pounds;
grade sulphate potash, 200 pounds |;
acid phosphate. coo pounds.
