Urban Interest in Agricultural
PrnOTsaSS

PrOSrSSS
The urban and industrial popula.
tons Of this country have mace
serious and grievous errors in re-
gard to their treatment of the
farmer. Too many of them wish to
hold him in thra1dom to their in
tereSt. They have an idea that he
is an isolated sort of individual and
unable therefore to act in co-opera-
tive unison with his fellow produc-
ers. This being true, the farmer is
fair game for everybody. It is his
; business to live out in the open
country and raise cheap food for
those who think they live and pros
per under the conditions of urban
society. If these ends are not at
tanned; there is a general hue ana
cry that the farmer is even a profl-
teer and a soulless sort of ind1v1d-
ual. The theory of the urban COM
munity and the industrial organl-
zation in regard to the farmer seems
to be expressed in the sentiment
treat 'em rough" The people who
live in the SNUG. comfort OF our cit
les and who work eight hours q day
for high wages have never stopped
to realize that the farmer, like them
selves. is justified in expecting to
receive some of the worthwhile
emoluments Of service and to enjoy
some of the happiness and Dement'S
which flow from a just recompense
for labor. These same people II
asked to sell the products OF their
energy for less than cost would I'M
mediately strike, and If they were
strong enough, tie up all industry
until their demands were met. These
same people do not realize that the
farmer has been frequently asked
to sell his crops in recent years at
less than the cost of productlon.
They do not understand that IN
many respects the world has been
hungry for food and inadequately
supplied Herewith. They presume
that because some particular kind OF
food is cheap at a given point that
there is a super-abundance OF IL
everywhere. People who view the
situation from this standpoint are,
in the parlance of the street, "rldlnS
for a fall"
OF course, there is an over-conges-
ton of food crops at some points
due to excessive transportation costS
and the breaking down OF national
and international credit, but this
condition is temporary and not per
manent. The era of cheap food for
urban centers has passed in my
opinion. It is also evident to the
student Of economics that the in
surance of an abundant food supply
in the future constitutes one OF the
worlds most difficult problems. rms
time is not far distant, therefore,
when the farmer as the primary
food producer will come into his
own. Urban jewellers will soon be
counting his favor instead OF heap-
ing abuse upon his head, and charg-
ing him with all the crimes IN the
decalogue. I am sure the farmer,
however, will bear no i'll will toward
his city brother but rather "heap
Goals of fire upon his head"
We may rest assured, therefore
that there is no such great over
production of food or raw materials
as many of our people have recently
concluded. All fair and LIBERAL

Handling Radishes as a Commercial
Crop

handing Radishes as Commercial
Crop
P. R., Scotia, S. c., writes:
What variety of radish is best to
plant for the early market?
What is the yield per acre?
What fertilizer should be used?
Will they do well in virgin soil?
Teadishes may be planted, accord
ing to the location and the seasonal
conditions, from February to April
and from July to October. Cover the
seed to depth Of about one-half
inch. Plant in rows of two feet
apart, or they may even be broad
casted. This calls for the use of
more seed, however, than is neces-
sary. One ounce of seed is sufficient
to plant 100 feet of drill. 1t will
take three to five pounds of seed to
acre. Scarlet Globe, French, Break
varieties. 1t takes radishes from
thirty to forty days to mature. This
crop may be sown with carrots or
parsley in alternate rows, if you
prefer, and thus keep the land pro-
ducing a desirable crop after the
radishes have been harvested.
There is not very great market
demand for radishes except in large
consuming centers, where they are
used as a vegetable, of course, and
as a garnish. There may be some
local demand in the vicinity of small
towns and cities by hotels or even by
private parties. 1t would be well to
investigate this matter and deter
mine whether facilities for the dis
posing of the crop are available be-
fore you undertake to raise it on an
extensive scale.
There is no reason why radishes
will not do well on a virgin soil, as
they like plenty of vegetable matter.
This crop can be grown with great
variety of fertilizers. We suggest
that you use a formula containing
3 to per cent nitrogen, 8 to per
cent phosphoric acid and per cent
potash. We scatter the fertilizer
over the land and work it into the
soil before planting the radishes. We
consider this better practice than
utting it in the drill row. Side
pplications with radishes will sell
en- prove desirable because of the
pid maturity of this crop.
The yield per acre varies greatly.

Data Relative to the Cultivation of
Lettuce

B. C.. w, Tabor, N. c.,
|. writes: want to plant some let
tuce for market this spring.
When should the seed be sown,
and how far apart should the
plants be set? What fertilizer
should be used, and what va
rieties will give the best re-
suits?
Climatic and soil conditions will
influence the time at which lettuce
should be planted to considerable
extent. The lettuce plant is quite
hardy but will not stand severe
freezes. The best time to plant ordi-
narily in the south is from January
to April in the spring, and July to
November in the fall. The seed
should be covered to depth OF
about one-half inch. The rows for
lettuce should ordinarily be IS inches
to two feet apart. In cold frames
the plants should be set six inches
apart in each direction. It will re
quire about one ounce Of seed to 200
feet of drill row. This should be
enough to produce 5000 plants.
The best varieties to plant are Big
Boston, Tennis Ball, and Grand
Rapids. These require 60 to 80 days
in which to mature. The transplant
ing should be done when the plants
are relatively small, say showing
two well developed leaves. In our
experience the early production and
transplanting of lettuce is essential
in order to secure not only a good
growth, but fine quality of headed
lettuce. This is, of course, the kind
which bleaches the best and there
fore commands the highest price. 1t
is also sWeeter than that produced
during the latter part of the gov
ing season. The tendency when
warm weather appears, as you know,
is for the lettuce to become bitter,
and in fact, extremely warm weather
causes it to dry up and die unless
there is a superabundance of mois-
ture present or water can be sup
piled to it in an efficient form.
AS matter of fact unless you
can produce lettuce in an off-season,
as it were, there will be little benefit
derived from it's growth because
nearly everyone has an abundance
Of it at certain seasons Of the year,
therefore the market gardener
should strive to plant and mature
his lettuce so as to have it ready
for sale when the local market is
relatively bare of this crop.
We grow most of our lettuce here
in cold frames. These are built of
properly reinforced cement. We
simply put rich earth in the beds
every year and can grow two or
three crops Of lettuce in the same
cold frame each season. The cold
frame enables us to protect the let
tuce against freezes. A cold frame is
not nearly as expesive to prepare as
would be a hot bed, as it is not nee
essary to use manure with a cold
frame. We can sell the lettuce rails
ed here quite readily at a good price
There is an opportunity for the pro-
duction of lettuce for local con-
sumption in the vicinity of almost
any town or city in the south. If
the crop is properly handled it will
enable one to make a good return
on the investment.

data on this point as I have never
made a study of radish production
on an acre basis. You can plant
radishes in a cold frame or hotbed
if you wish. and in that event you
sow them in succession so as
to have them coming on throughout
the year. This is one of the easiest
crops to raise. and is also one of 80
most perishable. In other words,
when it reaches maturity, it must be
used Immediately or it deteriorates
at once.
