Cultivation of Strawberries 
On page 316 A. L. Vroelawl’s story on 
strawberries is just about right. We pre¬ 
fer our rows 3 ft. apart, and a narrow 
row about 14 in. wide. It makes picking 
easier; with a wide row the pickers will 
get on the berries with their feet and 
knees. Two may pick on one wide row ; 
one will usually get ahead of the other 
and swipe most of the larger berries, and 
that makes trouble. A narrow row is 
much easier to keep clean from weeds, 
etc. After the rows are as wide as I

wish them we keep all runners cut off. 
We have a runner cutter made from a 
rolling cutter or colter, such as are used 
on plows, and two pieces of 2x1’ wood 
about N ft. long. If you make them 
shorter the tendency is to go too deep. 
Just simply make it like wheelbarrow, 
nail a few pieces of hoard across and 
shave the Upper cuds of 2x2s similar to 
wheelbarrow handles, ppt on a stone or 
small sack of earth to weight it down if 
necessary. I’ush along ahead of you. and 
it will do the. work fine. If some plants 
have rooted the cultivator will get them. 
This may not be news to many growers, 
but may help some.
