V IIOPi: CIIAMHLKLIN Jttre.iiwl In spite of the fascination inherent in the thought of having ones own vine and fig tree, the matter of planting fruits on a small holding should be entered into with care. There are, however, a few small fruits which are rather easily grown and which come into bearing in a short time after planting such for instance as blackberries, raspberries. strawberries and grapes. Plantings of these small fruits should be established as soon as possible after the vegetable garden has been planned and started. STRAWBERRIES It is wise to begin slowly with any fruit until one becomes familiar with its care. For the average family, 100 to 150 strawberry plants is Plants enough for a beginning. should be set in rows 3 feet apart and 2 feet apart in the rows. Great care should be taken in setting out the plants: They must not be set so low in the ground that the crown of the plant will be covered with soil in the event of a heavy rain, yet they must be set at sufficient depth to cover all of the roots none must be exposed above ground. Although strawberries are adapted to practically every part of the country, and although they will grow on all types of soils except such as are very wet or very sour, nevertheless they will give best results on moderately rich ground which Is kept scrupulously free from grass or weeds. If desired, the strawberry bed may be cleaned out and carried over for a second year of bearing, but the best crop is always obtained the first season following the setting of the plants and after the second season the bed should be plowed up. Many growers follow the excellent practice of setting out a new plot each year, thus having always one new planting and one second year planting, all plots being plowed up after their second year of bear- ) 4 V' fk Leon Henderson but he reached the Inner circle by a more roundabout way.

RASPBERRIES Raspberries are adapted, naturally, only to sections where the temperature does not ordinarily go lower than 15 degrees below zero. However, in very cold states, such as North Dakota and Minnesota, the fruit is successfully grown by laying the canes down in the fall and covering them with earth, uncovering them in the spring. In the average home garden, 100 plants will meet the requirements of home use. The grower may choose between black, red and purple varieties.
