PAGE FOUR THURSDAY, MARCH 19, 1959 Gardening Hints Are Given By County Agents Pre-Measurement of Cotton Acreage Some farmers are planting cot ton this year who have not plant ed any for a few years and others who may be using plan B, where a 40% increase is permitted, have a service of pre-measurement of cotton acreage available to them. In order to take advantage of this service they should get in touch with the County A SC office as there is a deadline of March 20th. most common are Tomato, pepper, lettuce, and cabbage but others such as cucumber, egg plant, etc. may also be transplanted. ' If you have had trouble with root-knot and other nematodes you should move your garden site or treat with a good soil fumigant. About 1,000 pounds per acre of 6-8-0 or 5-10-10 fertilizer should- be broadcast before the crops are planted. This is about 2 1-2 pounds per 100 sq. ft. or 7*2 lbs. per 100 ft. of 3-ft. row. As fertilizer will injure seed, do not let it come in contact with seed or roots of plants that are being transplanted. Your attention is called to some ed for this area: Snapbeans-Ex- new varieties that are reeommend- tender (Early, heavy yielder, good quality, mosiac resistant) Aromatic Tobacco Farmers who plan to plant aro matic tobacco this year are urged to get their plant bed seeded as soon as possible. Seed are avail able at the County Agents Office. After the seed bed is planted work should be started on the field as most the cultivation can be done before the plants are set out. Gardening Time If at all possible a lot of you folks will w'ant to plant something in the garden on “Good Friday”. There is a lot of work that could be done before then such as cleaning up the garden spot. Plow or spade up the land so as to in crease the water holding capacity, letting the winter or early spring rain soak into the soil. There are a number of different garden crops that can be started in a hot bed or a cold frame then transplanted to your garden. The Lima Beans-Xcmagreen (nema tode resistant, small green seed) Lettuce-Parris Island Cos Southern Peas-Mississippi Crowd er Rutabaga-Golden Xeckless Spinach-Dixie Market Summer Squash-Early Prolific- Winter Squash-Royal Acorn New varieties are released be cause they are better in one or more characteristics than existing varieties. Don’t guess on varieties, always use those that are recom mended for your area.
