The hills for melons and cucumbers should have at least two shovelfuls of well rotted stable manure mixed with the soil. In the common method 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- {zed 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. " Inm: all cases mix with the soll. The soil for lettuce, spinach, radishes, carrots and beéts 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, caulifiower and let- tuce plants into the ground by the 1st 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, untfl 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 har- row frequently until planting time. It i3 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 s easy of culture and will suc. ceed on any soil that is suitable for onfons.
