STRAWBERRIES. 
Soil and Situation. Land which will produce paying crops of 
corn can he relied upon to give good returns if planted to Strawberries. 
Preparation. Deep and thorough cultivation nowhere rewards the 
private or market gardener so bountifully and immediately, as with 
this most delicious fruit. It should be our ambition to grow the great- 
est possible quantities, ns well as the largest and linest berries. Very 
large Strawberries sell in market much more readily, and for a much 
higher pr ice, than ber ries of ordinary size. 
Land in sod should be cultivated one year or mor e with corn or gar- 
den vesietables, to ilestroy the grubs which often in gr eat numbers sub- 
sist upon the roots of grass, but do not remain in land which is kept 
clean of weeds. 
Hoeing and weeding is, 31161= all, the great secret to success, or the 
reason why one pro pels while half a dozen neighbors equally well 
situated fail. Hoeing should be done early and often. 
Season for planting, if the plants are not grown on the premises, 
but are brought from a distance, as early in the spring as the ground 
can he made reailv is the most favoratile time; but Str.awbeny plants 
can bs safelv tiansplauted at any season, when there is no frost in the 
ground. We are accustomed to tUis way of renewing our beds, with 
very fortunate results 
Early autumn planting. If carefully set out at that season, they 
will produce a goorf crop in less than 10 month's time. 
Setting plants in August, even in drv and sandy soil, ran be suc- 
cessfullv done. Dig holes the size of a tumbler, and then fill them 
with water. Set the plants and cover each with a large leaf, which 
may remain for a week, when it must be removed.
