The first essential for the produc- i tion of good early cabbages is that! the soil he rich. You cannot take up a j piece of old field soil and make cab-1 bages on it, no matter how much fer- 1 tilizer you may apply. In fact, no mat- j ter how fertile a piece of land may ap pear to be, it will not produce the best truck crops until after it has been, used several years for this purpose j and heavily fertilized annually. Then the soil must be light and j well drained. You can grow good cab bages 011 low land, provided it is | thoroughly drained, for some of the j best cro;?s are now grown in eastern | North Carolina on blaok swamp land j that haB been thoroughly drained. Ev en nn this fertile soil fertile so far! as nitrogen is concerned, but lacking mineral matter to some extent, the i growers use half a ton per acre of high-grade fertilizer strong in nitro gen and phosphoric acid especially. On high land it ahs been found that cabbages need both manure and fertil- j izers. The New Bern growers use, in pl?nt-; ing, a machine that opens a fuirow, j puts in the fertilizer and makes the! bed all at one operation and the J planters follow immediately' after the \ machine. In low grounds there I no ticed that they set the plants right on j top of the beds. I found at llaleiqh j that it was best to run the beds east i and west and to set the plants low j down on the north side of the bed. i Being on the cold side they will not be apt to start into g.jwth in warm spells in winter and then get killed by a cold snap. They are also shaded eeting 0 a. m.

If the fall Is a late one and the seed are sown in strong soil and allowed to suffer from dry weather, you may be able to get good plants from seed sown October 1, but you should have strong plants to set in November ?f they are to winter well. If you propose to carry the plants over winter in the bed for setting in early spring, it will be well to have cloth to protect them pn the very cold nights. But if the bed is in a well sheltered place, and the plants are transplanted so that the whole stem is covered, the less coddling they get the better, for you do not want them tr? start Intn ernwth till after the cold spell that usually comes about the middle of February. A night tempera ture of 20 to 25 degrees above zero will do no harm so far as cold is con cerned, but on such nights it will be better to put the cloth over as much to shade them from the morning sun as anything else, till after they thaw. In setting in the opening ground in November the important point is to 3et deep enough to cover the entire stem of the plant, as this may be split by frost, and a plant with a split stem may survive, but will not make a EVERYT every piano clasl We do not represent a t $75 to $100 more for a upon what we tell you money than can be o piano customers who will CALl HOLLAND i 'ill iV fill o o o o o <> o < <> < o o e want it. ^ O O w o e proposi- ^ perate the ?

Of course, the beds made to protect the plants are leveled in the spring, and the crop well cultivated. Beacon Shoes on sale at PollakofTs. Paint ? There are two good reasons for painting often-enouprh or even too-often. One, to look prosperous ; two, to be so. Nothing does one more credit or gives one more credit than paint,'supplemented of couige by what goes with it; and paint costs nothing. Tru?, the first cost is $5 or $6 a gallon put-on; but it saves more than that in the propertv; saves it from slow going-down ?not always siow?it urops witn a jump when water gets in on wood and iron. Dry wood and iron cost nothing, kept dry by paint. Better paint when it needs It. Paint never goes down in the sense of being more profitable next year. DEVOE * P. B. Speed sells it.
