MUCH INTEREST IN
STRAWBERRY CROP

Reports from county agents indi,
cate that farmers are showing con
siderable interest in the strawberry
as a cash crop and that record
acreage will be devoted to it in 1928,
according to Charles A. Keffer, direc-
tor of the Extension Service, Univer-
sity of Tennessee.
In speaking Of the crop at a recent
meeting of Monroe County farmers
Director Keffer stated that the straw
berry crop, grown under proper cul-
tural methods and properly managed
and marketed, had proven a prof
liable crop in sections of Tennessee
where it had been tried. Director
Keffer advised strongly against few
farmers in any community attempt
ing to put out large acreage. Past
experience has shown that from 65
to rs more acres around any one
shipping point is most satisfactory
and that this acreage should be di-
yided among large number of grow
ers. From one-half to one and one
half acres to each grower is consid-
cred enough, especially at the start
Director Keffer warned farmers
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1922-12-08

against thinking that strawberries
|could be grown successfully on poor
land The soil selected should be
we'll drained and fertile as one would
select a good crop of corn. If not,
it should be made so by the use Of
manure and commercial fertilizers.
About 5000 plants are required to
plant an acre, allowing the rows
three and one half feet apart, and
plants IS inches to two feet apart
in the rows. The cost of plants will
vary from twelve to fifteen dollars
per acre, depending on quality of the
Fall planting is not advised. March
and early April planting has been
found best where the crop is grown
on commercial scale. Considerable
money can be saved and danger of
getting diseased or insect infested
plants avoided by growers in any
community pooling their order for
plants and purchasing in large lots
from reliable parties.

rage which It is proposed to erect.
He contended that it would not de-
tract from the appearance OF the
neTghborhood and would be OF such
construction that It would IN no
sense be an eyesore.
The various property owners con-
tended that the erection OF the ga
rage would result in marked de-
probation OF the value of their prop
critics and would be objectional in
view OF the fact that the section Is
a strictly residential one. It was
that Mr.. Bissell has ample
room both in front and back of his
present home at No. Red Oak Road
to erect the garage.
