it is a common saying that fruits are cooling and also berries of every description it is because the acidity which they contain aids in separating 0 the bile from the blood hence the great yearning

present fall the most suitable season for transplanting strawberries has passed they may yet be set out with good prospect of success with but a little attention the strawberry will will thrive under almost any circumstances A great diversity of opinion prevails among cul jurists relative to the quality of soil best adapted to the strawberry some asserting from their own experience that a soil poor and barren id is best others claiming that the th plants require a very rich soil we do not endorse either of these opinions probably in isolated instances both extremes have succeeded tolerably well it cannot b be expected that an improved variety of any species will retain its excellence in a barren or uncultivated waste waster nor do we believe that th the nature of the plant uries a soil largely impregnated with animal manures in a tolerably poor soli soil deeply spaded with good cultivation we are of opinion that the tho strawberry would thrive and yield better than in a richt richa
