11 il%Vv>l I IvV and wholesome Strawberry, requiring 
w if for family use, only a small plot of 
ground to produce all the family can consume. If engaged in rai-sing 
for market, this branch of jjmall fruits will probably bring as good re- 
turns as any class of small fruits grown. Strawberries can be grown on a great 
variety of soils. Grodnd should be deeply and thoroughly worked, and surface 
kept clear of weeds, to produce the best results. Plant in rows two- feet by 
one, or three by one, if for garden or hill culture, or four by one for matted 
rows in field culture. Blossoms of all varieties mentioned are bi-sexual or per- 
fect (having both stamens and pistils within the same flower), except those 
marked P, which has no stamens, and are called imperfect or pistillate.
