When the soil is heavy and somewhat cold It Is safer to plant slightly shallower. The soil should be made firm over the seed after planting. This Is usually done by patting it with a' hoe. In traiuplantng plants, also the soil should be well firmed around the roots. 4. Thinning and Weeding. , Seeds are usually sown more thickly than is necessary and the extra plants resulting must be regarded as weeds. These extra plants of such crops as beets, onions and carrots may be used for greens or salad, or they may be transplanted. All weeds, ot course, should be promA small hand tool, ptly removed. called a weeder, is useful for this . purpose. 5. Care of the growing Crops.

Cultivation liberates the plant food, preserves the malBture and improves the sanitary condition ot the soil. An effort should be made mulch oa to keep a loose, dust-lik- e the surface to prevent the evaporation of the water.. To maintain this mulch it will be necessary to cultivate soon after each rain or each watering. (Do not cultivate while the soil Is sticky.) A good hoe and steel rake are the necessary tools. The former tor use when the soil Is hard or when large weeds are present, the latter for preparing the soil and maintaining the soil mulch. A wheel hoe is very useful and will save much time In cultivating. When watering is should be remembered that one heavy application is better than many sprinklings J. F. 8KINNER. over. |
