This is the critical period for
the strawberry bed. Either the
crabgrass is chocking-the plants
out or dry weather is killing
them. For that reason many of
our home gardeners are resort
ing to fall plantings. However,
the market gardener is concerned
with low costs and high produc.
tion and therefore must contnue
to practice spring planting and
the development of a matted row
bed.
You probably have observed
that as soon as the spring crop
was harvested the old plants be
gan to send out many runners
which produced runner plants
which caught root in the soil a
long the row. In the heat of late
summer not many runners are
produced but in September antf
October the runner formation is
heavy again. However, our scien
tists have found that runner
plants rooted in early summer
will produce about twice as many
berries as plants rooted in the
fall. For that reason you should
make an extra effort to save the
early runner plants and keep
them growing.
During late August in the
mountains and during earl- ep.
tember in the eastern part .he
state is the proper time to apply
fertilizer o strawberries. If you
have a narrow row the fertilizer
can be applied in a shallow fur
row on each side of the row. If
you have a wide matted row it
will be necessary to apply some
of the fertilizer on top of the
plants in the center of the row
when the leaves ar dry and then
brush the fertilizer off the plants.
The recommended fertilizer ap
plication is 700 lbs. of an 8-8-8
mixture per acre which is equiva
lent to about 3 quarts per 100 ft.
of row.

Make Sure Medicine Cabinet Is Child-Proof
t
BY EDNA MILES
IN the hands of your child,
even that safe and stand
ard household remedy, as
pirin, can become danger
ous. Children often confuse
pills with candy and every
day small victims of their
own curiosity are rushed to
hospitals.
Best solution to this problem is
to see to it that the medicine
cabinet is not accessible to the
small fry
Since it must be accessible to
adult members of the family,
some families provide a special
lock for the medicine cabinet.
Others keep only those rem-1
edies in the cabinet which abso
lutely cannot prove harmful.
Whatever your choice, it’s a
good idea to clear the entire
medicine chest from time to time
and restock it with fresh sup
plies
Medicines gone stale are use
less and some may prove toxic.
Among your supplies should be
a non-poisonous and stable anti
septic for cuts and scratches that
may be kept safely for long
periods.
Such an antiseptic is now on
the market in liquid form.
Vlt’s used for insect bites and
poison ivy as well as for cuts
;ar.d scratches.
Twice dangerous is situation posed, above. Little girl should
be discouraged from “mountaineering" and YOU should keep
all drugs, strong medications under lock and key ALWAYS..
