THE STRAWBERRY BED

Once the strawberry bed is through
producing. the gardener is faced with
the alternative of plowing it under and
planting the soil to another crop or
of renovating the bed. Probably year
in and year out the best plan would
be to establish a new bed each year.
Properly. this should be done in early
Spring. but may be accomplished any
time during the Summer or early
Autumn with fair, hope of success.
However. 1t is quite possible TO main
tain an old bed in worthwhile condi-
tion for at least two producing seasons.
Assuming that the bed following
fruiting practically covers the ground,
the gardener should again restrict the
plants to practically the original rows
by Spading the soil between the rows.
This inter space between rows should be
well fertilized with good grade COM
mercial fertilizer or stable manure and
regularly cultivated for a few weeks
until the new runners begin TO form,
when they should be allowed to re-
occupy the space. A temporary crop
such as lettuce may be grown between
the strawberry rows If one needs the
space. The old plants which are not
spaded under should be kept reasonably
free Of weeds to encourage growth and
runner formation. With such treat
ment the strawberry bed should give
very fair accounting the second season

ing in with the common lilac. old fash
ioncd SNOWFALL and black currant. The
delightful odor which gives this shrub
its common name. mock orange. has a
very lingering effect on the memory
and once known is rarely forgotten.
Plant breeders have done wonderful
things with the mock orange In
recent years. One has but to glance
through Il. II, Wilson'S latest book,
More Arlstocrats of the Garden"
to realize this. Double fiowered forms
are now available, retaining the fra
grance but taking on added beauty
Such arc Virginale and Avalanche
These are now available to American
gardeners through ordinary nursery
houses and should be given careful con-
sideration when planning the home
grounds
The mock orange is healthy shrub
with no serious enemies. It needs
no spraying and is beautiful in foliage
after the flowers have gone. No one
need hesitate to include these fine new
mock oranges in his planting plan.

STALKING TOMATOES
AND ITS ENVIRONS

Stalking tomato plants is very de-
sirable practice in the home garden.
In the first place space, none too plenty

Then staked plants arc usually one or
two weeks earlier In ripening their first
fruits. Furthermore, in seasons Of eX-
ceSsive moisture such as sometimes pre-
walls in this locality. there is much less
rotting Of tomatoes on supported vines
and the fruits are bright and attractive
from exposure to the light.
Stalking may be accomplished in
various ways A single stake may be
placed for each plant or two or three
wires may be strung between posts in
the same manner that grapes are sup
ported. Seedsmen offer wire supports
designed expressly for training tomatoes.
The kind of support makes but little
difference SO long as 1t keeps the plants
off the ground.
Tomato plants grown in this way are
usually pruned. the severity differing
with the type of support. For example
when grown to a single stake. one or

This is accomplished by simply pinch
ing out the side shoots as they appear.
Pruning may be expected, however, to
reduce total yields and. where maxi
mum yields are in view. should be SPAR
ingly practiced. With tall-growing
varieties such as Ponderosa it will be
necessary to pinch out the top of the
plant after ii has gone above the top
wire or top of the stake.
Training tomatoes III some such way
as herein suggested makes for neatneS.s

throughout the season. A well trained
row of tomato plants is really an at
