Transfer cabbage and cauliflower plants from the hot-bed to the cold frame, to harden before transplanting to the garden. In planting vegetables in the hotbed that do not transplant readily, such as squashes, cucumbers, and; melons, use pots. Tin cans make a | good substitute if the bottoms arei melted off. This method will give; the plants a few weeks start over: those planted in the open and consequently earlier bearing. j Do not fertilize your strawberries! with nitrate of soda in the spring before they begin bearing if you are going to put them on the market. This causes them to be soft.' Use equal parts of acid and cotton seed meal, 400 to 600 pounds per acre. It is getting late to spray for San Jose scale. Try to get a spray on before the buds swell. It may be too late to save the trees next year. Republican, and others had protested, of the solution to nine parts ofj water. If you have not replaced the miss-' ing trees in yopr orchard or added the fruits you do not now have, do so at once. It is getting late, but spring planting is successful if prop-1 erly done. Plant your early Irish potatoes as soon as soil conditions will permit. The Irish Cobbler and Early Bliss are two*good varieties. Spray your rose bushes with commercial lime sudful spray using one part of the solution to nine parts ofi water. Remove all prunings from your orchard and burn. This helps to j control insects and diseases. Arch Bigby, of Honea Path, was in the city on Monday on business. His son, who is in the regular army, is now on German soil, being a member of the army of occupation. \ War has emphasized the need of' dairy products to maintain a healthy people.
