Serious results are sure to follow when 

 the seed of a staple crop like cowpeas 

 is of such low vitality as it is this year, 

 .many lots being so poor that they are 

 worthless for seeding purposes. In 

 years when the seed is of poor quality 

 and at the same time when the price is 

 high, as is usually the case, it is especial- 

 ly important to know the percentage of 

 germination. When this is known, seed 

 of low vitality can be used by sowing 

 enough to secure a good stand. 



LILY OF THE VALLEY. 



I have a piece of ground 100x150 feet, 

 in a first-class condition, in which I wish 

 to plant valley for outdoor culture. When 

 should the pips be planted? How far 

 apart? What size pipst What treat- 

 ment shquld the plants receive during 

 the time they are not blooming? 



H. C. C 



For outdoor culture of lily of the 

 valley purchase the best single pips, what 

 are usually termed Berlin or Russian 

 being both good. A special strain of 

 Berlin known as Fortin's costs about 

 $1.50 to $2 per thousand pips additional, 

 but is well worth the extra money. Val- 

 ley prefers land which has been deeply 

 dug and well manured. Plant in rows 

 two feet apart and place the single pips 

 six inches apart. Cultivate freely dur- 

 ing summer to keep weeds down and
