PLANT A STRAWBERRY PATCH J Begin Right Now to Get Ready for It —The Most Easily Grown of All Fruits and One of the Most 1 Delicious. i Our section, because of cli - I matic conditions and locations, I (crossing as it does nearly all | the best fruit zones of the j United States) should be the | premier fruit-growing section of the country. We are. in fact, : I producing thousands of carloads of the choicest fruits in the | United States. The best apples ; the writer ever ate were pluck ied from the trees in the moun tains of North Carolina and Virginia. Georgia peaches have acquired a national reputation for beauty and quality. Every one has heard of the great straw berry fields of the coast country. But in spite of all this testimony as to the adaptability of the whole South country for the production of choice fruits, the average farmer of our country has less of these luscious, health giving products than men of his callling located in any other of the humid sections of the country. Ido not know why this is a fact but I believe a careful study of the question will convince any one that it is. and it is all wrong. There is not any one thing in the way of food that will do so much to maintain the people in splendid health as a regular supply of fresh first- I class fruit, taken along with other food at meal time. Tree I fruits require some years, of i course, to come into bearing j and cost considerable labor— I in these clays of bugs and worms J to make them of first quality, j Still, the time and expense that j a farmer gives to the work of ! producing these fruits I consider | well spent. But I am writing this to call jto the attention of every family lon a little farm in our country, from Maryland to Texas, the fact that the small fruits—the strawberry in particulai —can be grown so cheaply, both as regards expense for plants and also labor in planting and culti vating that no man who cares for his family should allow him self to deprive those of his house hold of the benefits that come from a liberal use of this wonder ful fruit, both in the raw state and as canned product. The strawberry is perhaps the easiest fruit to grow in the whole list, and yet I will wager that not one small farmer in twenty in our territory has a patch for the use of his family this spring, wher. by the expen diture of $5, 18 months ago for plants, preparation of land, fer tilizer, and cultivation he could have provided for bushels of them. It requires only a little more time to plant a certain amount of land with strawberries than would he required to plant the same amount of land in tobacco; the fertilizer bill is no more and the work of cultiva tion is much less while the land : growing the berries will produce i double or treble what it would were it growing tobacco. And the beauty of the strawberry is that it will grow in almost every ; section and on practically every farm. Now is the time to make pre- I aration for a crop of this fruit for the next year. Take a piece of as light land as you have (if you live in a clay section). Only a few square rods will be needed to furnish a liberal sup ply for a large family. Give this land a heavy coat of stable manure—you can't get it too rich—and plant it in Whippor will peas in rows so they may be cultivated until the last of July or the first of August. In the meantime order from a re liable nurseryman plants suffi cient to set the i>atch, figuring a plant every 1(J or IS inches in the row and the rows 4 feet apart. Have these plants ship ped when the land is ready to plant and them between the rows of peas, having the land | cultivated until it is a perfect seed-bed. If your soil is sandy or not as rich as you should wish, give a liberal application of fertilizer rich in potash and phosphorus, cut off the pea vines with a scythe and cultivate the strip in which they grow, and continue to cultivate until frost, then mulch well beween the rows with pine needles or wheat straw, free from weed seed, and you will be assured of a fair crop of fruit next spring, I and a bumper crop the following spring. Next year prepare another piece of land and take young plants from the old patch for setting. When you order your first plants tell your nurseryman that the berries are for home use and to send the varieties that are of the best quality for your section. If the weather should be dry when time comes for planting, pour a little water in the hole before setting each plant, and do the setting of ihe plants just at nightfall. You had better, perhaps, run a barb-wire fence around the patch next spring so you can turn the baby in for only ten minutes at a time for the first few days after the berries begin to ripen, else she may become foundered.
