BOWSFIELD The hardier vegetables, such as spin- ach, peas, carrots, beets, radishes, onlons, etc., may be safely planted as early as the ground is in good work- able condition and free of frost, while beans, melons, squash, cucumbers and corn should not be planted until the soll becomes warm and the tempera- ture at night does not go much below 55 degrees. Tomatoes may be set out at this time, but eggplant and peppers shoull be delayed until the temperature re- mains at 60 to 65 degrees at night. Early lettuce should be sown in the EARLY VEGETABLLS. botbed, greenhouse or window garden early in March, and if the plants are properly hardened beforehand they may be safely planted to the garden as soon as they attain a height of two inches. Make a second sowing as soou as first plants are ready to set out. likewise a third sowing when the scc ond lot of plants are ready for setting out, and s0 on until the season becomes too far advanced and the weather too warm for the lettuce to head. The round, smooth peas may be sown as soon as the ground can be worked; they will bear considerable cold with- out being injured, both before and aft er they are up, but if there is no object in having them come on very early it would perhaps be better to delay plant- ing until the ground becomes some- what warm, when the early, midsea- son and late varieties may be sown the same day. A pint of seed will sow about thirty-six feet of row. After the peas are cleared off the ground may be planted to string beans, early sweet corn, cabbage or celery. Of carrots and beets make two sow ings, about two months apart. Musk melons, cucumbers and early and late sweet corn may be planted in the same ground all on the same day. The hills for melons and cucumbers should have at least two shovelfuls of well rotted stable manure mixed with the soil. In the common methed the rows are three and one-half feet apart and the hills of melons and cucumbers six feet apart in the rows. The tomatoes, pole limas, squash. peppers and eggplant should be fertil- Ized in the hill with old well rotted sta- ble manure. One shovelful to each hill of lima beans will be sufficient, while the tomatoes, etc., should have two good shovelfuls to each hill. TIn all cases mix with the soil. The soil for lettuce, spinach, radishes, carrots and beets should be well en- riched with heavy applications of well rotted stable manure applied broadcast and worked well into the soil. If you got.in a sowing of garden peas early in March put in another at the end of the month. If you want to get very early cabbage, cauliflower and let- tuce plants into the ground by the Ist of April remember to begin to harden them off in the hotbeds by the middle of March or perhaps ten days before setting them out. Do not uncover the strawberries too early. Toward the end of March will be time enough. Wait, in fact, until they begin to grow. Sod is excellent for tomatoes. Some of the largest crops have been grown after sod. A handful of fertilizer in the hill starts growth, and the sod fur- nishes plant food for maturing the crop. It is best, though, to plow the sod in early fall and leave the furrows exposed to the action of frost and the elements during the winter. In the spring get on the ground early and bhar row frequently until planting time. It 18 well to broadcast manure for onions on top of the ground after plow- ing. This is then harrowed in with a disk harrow and thoroughly incorpo- rated in the soll before onions are planted. Garlic Is easy of culture and will suc- ceed on any soil that is suitable for onions. It is grown or propagated by dividing the bulbs, which are listed by the seedsmen as cloves or sets and can be procured from any of the large seed houses. They are planted as early in spring as the ground is in condition for working in rows twelve to fifteen inch- es apart and from five to six inches apart in the row. HOW TO ANSWER BLIND ADS.

Hear Edison's New Art 7he NEW EDISON more distinctive than a Strad The actual re-creation of all forms of music—not the mere mechanical and only approximate reproduction, which is characteristic of all talking ma- chines, (all other devices for the reproduction of sound).

Hear Edison’s re-creation of Spalding’s masterly bowing, then hear Spalding himself. America’s greatest violinist, proving by actual com- parison that all of his brilliant technique, all of the poetry of his interpretations and all of the rich tone of his priceless violin are faithfully re-created by Edison’s new art.
