Generally, a steep slope should be avoided for cul tural reasons and to avoid the land washing. Slope enough to drain well should be had if possi'ole. Drainage, of both air and water is of prime importance. By air drainage is meant air circulation. There are two general systems of j planting, one is known the hedge j row or matted row, and the other is I the hill system. In the matted row ! system the plants should be set one j foot apart in the row and the rows I about three and a half feet apart. (The plants should be permitted to j spread out to a width of about fif teen inches in the row; this leaves room for cultivation and picking of the fruit. By this method it will require about 11.880 plants to one acre. Strawberry plants are set in the same manner as cabbage or oth er vegetable plants. Simply make an opening in the soil with a spade or dibble, put the roots straight down into the opening and press the soil firmly against the roots. Be sure that you have the crown or heart of the plant above the surface of the ground. I Cultivation should begin as soon! as possible after setting the plants! and the surface of the soil should be' kept loose and pulverized. They should be cultivated once a week to keep down weeds and hold moisture in the soil. Care should be used sr that the crown of the plants are not covered with dirt. The expense of establishing one acre of strawberries is about $!M.yo. One man has furnished us the record from an acre of strawberries cover ing a period of twenty years. The greatest gross production was $1,293. 95. expenses of cultivation. harvest- Pictured on the figure at the left is a yoke front, part elastic top, band bottom bIoomer.Center,h fashion, able, elastic top, pantie bloomer.

Redditt, ex-1 unsion service poultrynian at the' college of argriculture, Lincoln. The diiHculties of turkey raising have been overcome to a great degree by; the efficient experiments carried on ; by the poultry department, and re-1 suits published in bulletins on turkey, production. ; Clean feed, clean water and clean j range are the primary requirements . of successful turkey raising, estab-1 lished in an experiment cm the poul- i try farm. According to Prof. F. E. ' Mussehl, chairman of the poultry de partment, the methods developed by' tlus experiment Mrill receive wide ap-; plication if the number of requests for the bulletin on the experiments is any indication of the interest arcused in turkey raising. Inquiries have come from as far east as Roan-! oke. Va., and as far west as Utah i and Arizona. j Turkey raising was started on the college of agriculture poultry farm by using the current methods of letting the turkey hen incubate and brood, her own poults. The results obtained were not satisfactory as many poults were lost. Artifical hatching and brooding methods were next tried. ' The rerjuirments for the incubation j of turkey eggs are about the same as for chickens eggs. Egg production ! costs were less because the hen did not stop laying to hatch and brood the poults. The poults were bred with an or-1 dinary coal or kerosene brooder. The method of feeding does not vary! greatly from the accepted .standard of chick feeding.

Aecording to Professor Mussehl.' turk'-y raising should again be a pro-i lituble business, as turkeys bring to fifteen cents a pound more than chickens during the holidays. .-MWIliaMW iu,w .limn "''' u-a.'-nuy .
