A UST OF DON'TS. 113 



GEO. J. KELLOGG Don't plant by a line. If you use one, walk

Don't get the strawoerry fever unless you get enough to last 

 twelve months in a year. Don't expect much from a loose, sandy 

 E. T. INGRAM soil witnout a harder subsoil. Don't try to 

 learn it all by your own experience. Don't expect all varieties to- 

 do as well for you as for some one else. Don't condemn a variety 

 unless you know you have the one you ordered. Pa. 



Don't let your berries get too ripe on the vines, or a few over- 

 ripe ones will spoil the rest. Don't let berries stand in the sun 

 HORACE J. SMITH after being picked. Don't let the pickers 

 tread or roll on the vines, nor play base ball. Don't leave a bed 

 too long, but set some new vines every year. Don't wait till 

 picking time before making up cases and boxes for the season.

Don't plant on undrained land, on foul land, on too light
