DAVIS i j c. I How To Raise Strawberries. The following is taken from the current issue of Farm and Fireside: "A strong box or barrel is neededsomething that will stand the general conditions of the weather. Bore holes in the bottom of the box or barrel for drainage, and also sevaral rows cf inch holes od the sides, holes at least aix inches apart, and each row the same distance, with the first and third rows of holes directly above each other, and so on alternately. Set the hr?v rkT Via n? cm all 'h1/\r?to n f vunnrl to assist drainage. "Soil of the same quality as that prepared for a bed in open ground is required, and in placing in the box it must be sifted or sprinkled during the whole course of the work of filling. Fill up in this manner to the first row of holes, and after placing a plant well in each hole, cover up the roots of the plant by this sprinkling process to the next row of holes, and so od until full. Unless this method is U9ed to put the dirt in, the plants will be drawn out of position when the mass settles. Plants are, of course, placed on the top of the barrel or box. StroDg wires around the sides, if a box is U9ed, will assist in keeping it together if placed en: UU UClUitJ IllUUg. "Such a prepared bed of strawberries will supply the wants of any ordinary household, and more, too, if more than one box is prepared. There are advantages, also, in this method of raising them: there are no weeds to keep down, a bucket of water gently poured on will supply all the moisture needed, the bernes are clean and easy to pick, and the whole batch of plants can be = covered with little trouble if necessary to protect from late frosts."
