berry. The vines are vigorous and some¬ 
times grow twenty feet in one season. Al¬ 
though the vines are thorny, the fruit 
stems hang out from the vines making 
them easy to pick. We set 1,000 plants 
to the acre; making the rows about 9 feet 
apart and setting them about five to six 
feet in the row. Should be set as early in 
the spring as possible although some set 
in the fall. As vines start to run, keep 
them trained along the rows so they will 
not be in the way of the plow. In winter 
place posts along the rows every ten feet 
and string two wires on to them, the first 
wire being about eighteen inches from 
the ground. In the early spring tie your 
vines up to the wires, stretching the vines 
out full length. One set of posts and 
wires will last the lifetime of the plants 
or ten or fifteen years. After fruiting, cut 
out all old wood and train and cultivate 
the vines as you did at the first. Plow 
and hoe when needed. 
Whatever you do plant some Young- 
berries, they have the flavor of the Red 
Raspberry and are a cross between the 
Austin Dewberry and the Loganberry. 
They make the best jelly, marmalade and 
jam ever. In Southern Alabama they have 
cleared from $550.00 to $650.00 per acre 
from Youngberries and in California as 
much as $1,000.00 per acre.

This is a new kaffir corn and we find 
it a wonderful grower on our farm: we 
truly think it will make 100 bushels of 
threshed grain to the acre on good soil. 
Should be planted in May but will do 
well planted as late as July 4th. Will do 
well in dry weather and is fine feed for 
stock and chickens. Three pounds will 
drill an acre You should try some of this 
fine feed.
