AGRICULTURAL INTERESTS

the next best thing that may be done is
TO pillow or spade the soil and allow it TO
lie rough throughout the winter. This
practice destroys many insects that lie
just below the surface. The winter
frosts have a tightening effect upon the
soil. especially on clay soils.
The earliest and choicest vegetables
are harvested by the man who maintains
a few hotbed, sashes and uses them to
start his garden. He is able to handi-
cap the frost line by several weeks and
to set strong. well-deyeloped plants in
his garden at time. his neighbors are
planting >eeds.
The farm income is at its lowest point
in the early spring, but 1t can he in
creased considerably by the sale Of
young plants grown in the hotbeds and
ready for transplanting. Tomato. cab
bage, eggplant and pepper plants are al
ways snapped . when the first warm
planting days tome, and they are cas-
lily grown in the hotbed. A little more
space and a little more seed than the
grower needs for his own use are like
ly to bring good profits. Before the
ground freezes in the fall is good time
to clean out the old hotbeds.
Unless the soil used in the hotbed is
to be exchanged for fresh earth it should
be shoveled from the bed and tossed in
to a pile nearby. The decayed manure
from the bottom is scattered over the
pile and thoroughly mixed with It to
form rich soil for next years beds. Over
this goes a coat of straw or leaves held
down by bits Of board to keep it from
| blowing.
Some farmers find it convenient to use
evergreen boughs instead of straw FOR
the outer covering.
