Strawberry shortcnlso would som become a thing of the past If nil strmv 'berry plants were set In poorly drnliwul soil. While strnwbenlo.s can bo grown successfully on a wide variety of soil types, good drainage Is necessary, and ihuudant humus Is essential to goml yields. Methods of growing and ban ning strawberries in the South Atlan tic and Gulf Coast regions, where the Mlmate is mild and the plants grow during neurly the entire year aro dif ferent in many respects from those In other parts of the country. These regions ship over I'.tiOO carloads nu nually. Soli must be selected that Is espe cially well drained. This Is particu larly important in ttyj South, where much of the land Is 'low and often poorly drained.. Leaf, root, and fruit diseases nre favored by poorly drained sites. There is no particular typo of soli to which strawberries arc best adapted. Fine sandy to heavy gumbo soils nre used. Preparation of the land 'for planting should be thorough. If sufllclent humus is not already pres ent, heavy application's of manure should be made; or, if thii: Is not avail able, some Rreen-manure crop should be grown on the land for a Benson and then turned under before setting tho plants. Nematodes, also called gallworma and eehvonns, are a serious menace to southern strawberry growers. They nre most abundant where the soil rarely or never freezes to consider able depth, and are more injurious in sandy -than in heavy soils. Where available, new land or that known to he free from nemntodes should he used for strawberries. Common crops and plants known to he immune or very resistant to this parasite, such as corn, sorghum, winter oats, rye, pearl millet, velvet beans, peanuts, nnd a few others should he planted in rota tion with strawberries. Many grow ers find it to their advantage In com bating nematodes to secure plants from northern nurseries each year, nnd set them in their plantations dur ing the winter months about 'every four feet apart in the rows. The manner of hnndllng these plants, sometimes called "mother plnnts," Is to set them in January, February, or March. They will start growing at once, and by June will de-, velop enough runner plants to cover u considerably Increased area.

Tho ex:tet time for making the original planting and the several transplantlngs of the runner plants varies in different lo enlltles ami with weather conditions. Generally two planting system are used In the South (he bill system tmd the matted-row system. Under the hill system the plants aro commonly set In late summer or aulumu. and the crop is harvested in the winter or the following spring. Usually plants set ut that time make no runner-, but if any do appear they ure rem ed. When this system is used the ,tf:iiit nre set In single, double, or trinhj. rows. Whatever method Is used two things are of special Importance: Setting the plants nt the right depth and m ining the soil very Ann about the roots. I'hcs plants should he set so that the crowns will he even with the surface of the ground after the soil has been packed about tho roots. If set too deep tho plant will smother, and if tha crown Is exposed above tho surfnei-.it may dry out nnd die.
