SELECT CURRANTS 
Currants should be planted in good, very fertile soil, with liberal manuring, and 
the tops should be cut back nearly to the crown, allowing only three or four canes to 
grow the first year. Plant in rows five to six feet apart and three feet in the row. 
Prune more or less every year to get rid of the old wood and keen the bushes open. 
Currant worms should be vigilantly looked for in spring and summer. These worms 
can be destroyed by white hellebore, one ounce to three gallons of water, and apply 
with a sprinkling cSn or a good spray pump, which is much better. Be sure and use • 
the remedy before the worms appear or immediately afterward. 
The Currant is well adapted to our soil and climate, and everyone should have a 
liberal supply. See spraying bulletin, pages 34 to 36, for additional remedies to 
destroy the Currant worm.
