EARLY POTATOES

Comparatively few home gardeners
grow potatoes in their vegetable garden,
vet there are few crops which win give
as good a return both in actual yields
and in satisfaction, granted one uses
good seed stock and gives good cultural
care. Potatoes look we'll in the garden,
the sturdy, vigorous plants grow rapidly
and soon cover the ground with a mat
of green foliage. The early crop is the
one that is especially worthwhile be-
cause it natures when prices OF new
potatoes are still high and d usually
of excellent quality.
Potatoes may be planted any time
now, the sooner the better. Irish, Cob
bier is a splendid early variety, white
skinned and white f1eshed and cooking
up mealy even when freshly dug. This
variety may be purchased at most OF
the stores handling vegetable seed.
Large tubers should be cut into CHUNKY
pieces containing two or more buds OF
eyes. The rows should be placed 28-50
inches apart and the hills in the row
1918 inches. The seed pieces should
be planted 3-4 inches deep. The soil,
needless to state. should be carefully
prepared and literally fertilized With
broadcasting of complete fertilizer
Early potatoes, as a rule, will mature
without need of spraying. requiring
little more than regular cultivation TO
keep down weeds.
An interesting means of speeding up
the early crop of potatoes is to expose

TREATMENT OF
PRUNING WOUNDS

The following item, released by the
press service of the Department OF Ag-
riculture, contains valuable suggestions
for any one who prunes trees.
Shade trees often suffer permanent
injury as a result Of improper care or
complete neglect Of the wounds caused
by pruning Specialists OF the UnlUeo
States Department of Agriculture recon-
mend that scars made in pruning De
painted Immediately with shellac TO pre-
vent driving out and consequent dying
back of the cambium layer, the area
Just beneath the bark.
"Shellac should be prepared by dis
solving gum lac in alcohol No other
solvent should be used as some solvents
actually kill back the cambium layer IN
stead of protecting it. In the case OF
small wounds half inch or less In d.
ameter, shellac will give complete pro-
lection under ordinary conditions, but on
larger wounds the Shellac should be COW
cred with some more permanent prep
aration, such as asphalt, tar, or good
lead paint of any desired color.
''In the case of large wounds, good re-
suits will be obtained If the shellac Is
applied only over the cambium, cut
edges of the bark, and the sapwood,
but the permanent dressing should cover
the entire scar.
"A shellac brush can be cleaned cas-
lily by working it around for few min
utes in cup of water with half tea
spoon of ordinary borax. Shellac can
readily be removed from the hands with
the same preparation

GARDEN NOTES

One Of the blessings of modern
gardening is the comparative freedom
from itinerant statesmen for trees
shrubs and other nursery stock. More
and more Of the business is now car
ried on directly between the grower
and the consumer. Washington gar
deners are rather favored by having a
number of nurseries within driving dis
lance. where plants may be purchased
on actual sight and not in the light
OF howery words of some agent who
may know but little about the stock
or its adaptation to the locality and
perhaps cares less.
There is really no object in buying a
large collection of garden tools to OPP
crate small back yard garden. Some
of the fanciful devices developed to aid
the gardener are impractical or rela-
lively fragile. A very good garden can
be developed and maintained with
simply a spading fork, rake and hoe
with perhaps a small hand cultivator
for working close to the plants. After
all, the success of the garden rests
chiefly on the thought and energy OF
the gardener.
Simplicity in arrangement of the
back yard garden is also to be COM
mended. Straight rows are preferable
TO small beds which require lots OF
hand wedding. Tall species should be
grouped by themselves-that is, in the

The proportions used are approximately
ounces of the powdered sulphate, 8
ounces of hydrated lime, and 20 quarts
of water. The copper sulphate is dis
solved In about half the water and the
lime in the other half and then the two
are poured together, giving a brilliant
light blue liquid known as bordeaux
mixture.
The discovery of the value OF bor-
deaux mixture as a fun2icide Is an
interesting story. A French grape grower
who was bothered with thieves stealing
the fruit from vines along the highway
scattered a mixture of lime and copper
sulphate over the foliage to deter the
thieves and was surprised to md that
the treated vines kept healthy and
produced sound fruit while back from
the road the crop was lost. Thus was
discovered a simple spray which las
since proved a boon to mankind.
