Strawberries, planted in the spring as soon as the 
ground is dry enough; tomatoes (for the late crop), 
planted in Tune. Used successfully by some New Jersey 
growers. It is claimed that the tomatoes do well and 
that the yield of strawberries the following season is not 
affected.

The strawberries are planted early and bush beans at 
the proper time. This is a popular system at Norfolk, 
Va. After selling the snap beans the plants are plowed 
into the soil. Strawberries are grown in wide mat rows. 
19. Sweet Corn and Late Squash. Early corn is 
planted in rows 2 J4 feet apart. Every sixth row is left 
vacant and planted with squash. Watermelons may be 
substituted for squash. The corn fodder, after marketing 
the ears, is cut and shocked.
