STRAWBERRY SHOOKS OR DIRT BANDS 
STRAWBERRY SHOOKS OR DIRT BANDS. Eggplants, Muskmelons and Early Cucumbers pay well if they 
come early into the market. In order to have them early, it is a good plan to start them in a cold frame in 
what are called “Dirt Bands.’ This is a box 4 inches square and 4 inches deep, without bottoms. These are 
placed in a frame and filled up with good rich soil, and five or six seeds in each box; when the plants come 
up, thin them out to one or two in each box. Before using dirt bands, wet them thoroughly before bending 
or they will be apt to break at the grooves, asthey are made of thin veneered wood. 75c per i100; $3.50 per 
1000, not prepaid. Tacks for Dirt Bands and Boxes, 44 lb. 15c; Ib. 50c, postpaid.
