Prepared for Later Crops-In
struction as to Cultivation.
The following article is very inter
esting to the lovers of good winter
gardens. * L'"'
Now ls the time to plan your win
ter gardens. About the 15th or 20th
of July "you moy carefully select
your winter'plant, lime it well, sub
soil about 12 inches-, .lay off UZ of
it In row2 1-3. feet apart, using
plenty of leaf mola'and well rotted
.?ompact as fertiliser. Plant Irish
potatoes on this 1/3. of plat, using the
small potatoes fefj from the spring
crop if you havcJthem. If no. lnnt
the Lookout Mountain potato fer au
tumn use. This crop canu be left
in the ground ana used during the
entire Winter. There is always a
ready sale for fresh Irish potatoes in
fall and winter.
About the middle.of August 1-6 of
the plat may be planted in Rutabaga
turnips, 1-6 In the egg turnip, which
comes off very' carly, leaving the
same territory to be planted in let
tuce the firat of November.
The remainder Ifs ot plat may be
planted in the White Pearl onion
which will be ready for market the
first of February, if the seta are
planted the first or' middle of Sep
tember. By planting them this;early
In the fall or middle of September.
Dy planting thom thia early In the
fall tbey bring a fancy price in the
market, coming on so early In the
succeeding year. Then too, the
ground will be available In March
for planting plmei>T?t or some other
product. ft '
Onions require very frequent cul
tivation until the bulb is about two
Inches in diameter, then the soil
should be drawn away from the bulb,
leaving it exposed above ground, from
which, through the thread roots, it
develops very ralipdly.
Winter gardens ' should be planted
through July, August, ard September.
To'increase variety of production on
?the plat the Irish potatoes may be
gathered and spread in a house for
keeping during the winter, leaving
the space they occupy on tho plat to
be planted in beets tho first of No
vember. These yield an abundant
harvest for February and March mar
ket. They, too. require frequent cul
tivation.
