The oStttmtial thllitfa to b* ??)? aldered in H>e home garden ar#: locution, planning, preparation and cultivation, fertilisation and equip menta. In locating the garden the ques tion of itH proximity to the house is of vaat importance, (or naturally moat of the work 1m done during spare momenia whk h could Hot be taken advantage, of if the garden were located n half mile from the liou^e. Other things being equal, the general lay of the lain! deter mine to a considerable extent the earjinesn of the crops. Well-drain ed land, sloping Keutly to the South or Bouthwoht, ia preferable for the production of early vegetables. Wind barriers, tfuch as hills, woods hedg en, tight board fences, etc., on the North or North weal produce very much the a a in. 6 effect. Cliooae a location >that 1h well drained <>r tl'?* drain it after it baa been chosen. If circumstances will permit, ntak the rows long, thereby Having tlnio in turning and economizing land. Grow vegetables In rows Ioiik enough and wide enough to permit / cultivation by home and wheel ho If the towh are long it may be nec cnnary to plant more than one kind of vegetable In the name row, in which case it 1h exceedingly im portant that they are compatible that Is, tliey require the same gen eral treatment and practically the Mime growing season*. The peren nialn, auch an asparagus, rhubarb, etc., should be planted at one aide whore /hey wlJI not Interfere with the cultivation of the other -.crops, ' The larger growing plants, an cOrn, late cabbage and potatoes may be i planted together on the other Hide of the garden. Of courtje these suggestions are' general, since fre quently there are conditions over which the gardner ban little or no control. Hoiu^tlmeM, there Ih a de- ' elded variation in -the character of the soil In the same garden. Th!*, as well hm any other local condition, ought to be. taken into consideration in arranging for the location of the various cropw. For example, If a part of the garden below, moist and oool, this place Hhould not l/e planted to early crops, which req h I re a quick, warm soil, but should be reserved for onions, celery, etc. A rotation of crops, manures and tillage should be practiced on the garden, as well aa on the1 genera i farm ft I* doubly important to , rotate if disease* and Insect* be come serious on any one crop. In a rotation to eradicate dlveiMH arul insects, the greatest oare should be takeu to select those crop* on wblcb these particular peats canuot thrive. For example, the potato "scab" will live on such plants aa turnips, radishe* and rutabaga*. There are some pests, however, which cannot be starved out in this | manner on so small a place as the J garden. In a case of this kind, it j is usually cheaper to plant that par- j tit ular crop and others on whIHi i this petit would exist on a different j part of the farm until the pest ban j been starved out of the garden. Time and lal?or wjf.ll be saved by ; making the garden soil deep, /fine j and 'It'll before* planting It Is j not Hufficlent that the land be j smooth <*n top, but the pulverising j process should extend as deep as the plowing, for few things are more detrimental to the delicate roots of the small plant** than olods and air spaceg, both of which are results Of poor preparation. By harrowing thoroughly before and after plow ing, the laud can be put In excels lent physical condition. A deep, thorough preparation before plant ing aud frequent, shallow cultiva tion after planting is necessary for best results. I The fertilizer used influenced to a marked degree the character and 'luaU.tjL'Ol tUo vegetable* produced.^ Barn yard manure Is undoubtedly i the bent for this purpose, but carp should be taken to see that it is well rotted and contalus no elements that would be injurious to the soil. An excosH of such things as saw dust, shavings, etc., which do not rot quickly, have a tendency to pro (tuce sourness in the boH, which is detrimental to practically all garden vegetables. Even when barnyard manure 1b used, it is usually econo mical to supplement it with a good high-grade commercial fertilizer with a greater per cent, of potash than is required by the general field crops. Under ordinary conditions, a fertilizer with an analysis of 3 per cent, nitrogen; 8 per cent, phosphoric acid; 8 or 10 per cent. pot.aBli, would be found to give ex cellent results in a vegetable gar den. Nitrate of soda hastens the growth of such early crops as as paragus, rhubarb, lettuce, etc. Hard wood ash 1h one of the best BOurc es of potash, provided it has not been exposed to rain. Liiue, while not directly a fertiliser. oft?a pro 4|0g MNM result* *h?u ap plied Co garden soils, especially If the I nod has ? tendency to sour ness. My u?w of hotbed ftnd cold frame (without which tto garden 1m com plete), the vegetable season could bo lengthened at both end*. The hotbed consists of an enclosure cov ered with sash (In some cases cloth In substituted for glasa) and sup plied with some form of artificial beat to keep the aoll warm and In condition to favor plant growth, usually fermenting stable inunure Is used for this purpose. The cold frame Is a hotbed without the ar tificial heat, In preparing the hotted, have the manure thoroughly mixed and fined. Put in -a bed of manure about 8 or 10 inches thick, cover this about 6 or 6 Inches deep with clean garden soli. After the bed has been prepared, let' th?> heat come do w ii to 80 degrees F, before planting the seed. Aitor the plants are up, the hotbed should be venti lated during the forenoon tit warm days by raising the sush on the op posite side from the wind, Water on bright days during the morning only. Some plants can be grown to maturity in hotbeds or cold frames, while others ure started in them aud transplanted to the open when outside conditions are favor able. There are but few things more necessary <to a garden than a hotbed. O. M. Clark, ^eat. tjortloalturlnt. SI MMONH FOR KELHEF Stat* of South Carolina, - Count} of Kershaw. .
