' ! Are you growing your own cab1 bage plants for early spring setting? 1 | Seed should be sowed by the end of ; September. ! He sure to start a strawberry patch this fall. A small crop of ber' jries can be obtained next year from plants set at this season. 9 In ordering fruit trees, see that 5 you include at least a few of all the fruits that do well in your locality, s with varieties of good quality that - ripen in succession. I If you wish to propagate your own s fruit trees, plant the seed now by sowing them in rows and covering -1 two or three inches.

Remove runj ners that have been allowed to take II root between the rows, cultivate 1 j thoroughly, and fertilize. Also, it is 1 I well to mulch the plants heavily at this time rather than in spring, for . the reason that winter rains will be r retained. furnishing as a conse. quence a more abundant moisture supply during the fruiting season t when it is most needed. e P. J. CRIDEU. X Associate Horticulturalist. Clemson College, S.* C. Plant Sweet Pen* This Pall. Until a few years ago people had the mistaken idea that it was in) possible to plant sweet peas in the fall successfully. Being aware of the u fact that experience is the best teach.jer known, three years ago I experii" niented, ;?nd the results have been > all that could be wished for. A great deal of the success with . sweet peas depends upon careful pre paration of the soil. Study where - would be the best location, selectin" 5" a sunny spot where the soil is soft i and loamy and well drained. Have s a deep trench dug about one foot i wide and two feet deep. In the bott torn of this it is well to put a layer - of old tin cans or corn stalks, to keep ; the soil thoroughly drained. Take t well rotted stable manure and (111 the trench one third full, then draw In - enough soil to till it two-thirds full, s Mix the soil and manure thoroughly. - and you are then ready to sow. Prom the first of October to the y first of November in this country is - the best time to plant. I buy the - Spencer varieties, assorted colors: - they come a little higher than the r; common vaieties mixed, but "the best" will always pay in buying seed. By planting in the fall of the p year, vou will have the advantage w over your neighbor, for when your peas are blooming profusely in th ! early spring hers sowed in February > are just beginning to run. H Sow the seed rather thickly so H that if the winter is severe there will ! then bo a good stand. Cover about H three or four inches h aving m vc I* inches of the furrow still open. \ft . the seed are un and lw??rtnni.??? - grow quickly. draw ;i little of the soil around the roots, gradually lilling up the open furrow. As soon as they are ready to run. I watch them closely to see that each vine gets started up the wire.

Information of the swindle was sent anonymously to John 0. Knox, assistant district attorney, (who is in charge of the "blackmail syndicate" cases In New York and other cities. The informant told Mr. Knox that while traveling recently from Portland, Ore., to St. Louis he was nearly trapped by one of the women and afterward learned from a Pullman porter that the "badger game" was I being played by women traveling " regularly on that line. <1 * 4 UEBDAY. OCT. 3, 1916. "j ND GARDEN! i I common wire netting is best, but if that is not convenient, common twine can be used. Put in small stakes' every three or four feet and begin-1 , ning at the end of the row. put a straight row of twine both at Top and bottom; then weave your twine back and forth. You will be pleased I I with the results, as after the vine. ] have covered it, not a sign of twine is visible. Dry twigs and small branches stuck in the ground are very good for the vines to cling to, especially in the country where one can get these so easily. I make three plantings; In Oc-j tober, November and February. This gives nie a profusion of flowers from parly spring until July. When one lives near a town, there is splendid iopportunity to make much pin money! out of the sweet peas. I have calls' [for nearly all I grow, and besides the | actual profit from mine.

Did you ever notice that the largest potatoes do not always win at the fair? Size is not the most important consideration in selecting a sample. F. M. Rast of the University of Florida College of Agriculture lays emphasis on the uniformity of the sample and the neatness of the package. Two or three nig potatoes in . bushel or an unattractive package will spoil the effect of an otherwise good exhibit. Mr. Rast gives the following points to be observed in making an exhibit i of sweet potatoes: "Do not select large, overgrown, irregular potatoes. Medium sized potatoes are best. Have all potatoes in the package of [the same general size. Deformities and irregularities detract from the appearance. Diseased or bruised potatoes are not desirable Exhibit at least one bushel. A well made and attractive package will help to win. The first five points are exteremely. important in selecting the sample."! For Irish potatoes lie offers tic following points: "Select potatoes with smooth skins and few eye?.
