If you use plenty of good stable manure 

 you need not think of adding any other 

 fertilizer. I would advise mixing the 

 soil soon, so as to be thoroughly rotted 

 before you need it, using one good load 

 of manure to three of soil. Have a load 

 of sand near by to mix in as you pile 

 the compost. Avoid long, strawy manure, 

 since you have little time for it to decay. 

 Manure is never better than when fresh 

 for mixing in the soil. If musty and 

 burned out from heating, it has lost much 

 of its strength and value. Cut the pile 

 down with a spade after about two 

 months and mix it up and let it lie in a 

 heap again until wanted. You need not 

 put it in the beds until the plants are 

 half grown in boxes. 



If you plant the seed about September 

 1 you will have a crop for Thanksgiving. 



Nitrate of soda is an excellent fer- 

 tilizer for lettuce where there is not 

 enough manure in the soil, but it should 

 not be put on until the soil is in the 

 benches. H- G.
