Save the best shaped and colored tomatoes lor deed every year, aud the strain will be much improved. If the cabbage heads show signs of bursting, pail eaoh bond a 1 ttle so as to break a few of the roots and thus check the rapid growth. Look out for weak anil broken ronnds in the ladder. Bad accidents have happened by going through bucIi ladders. Pat iu new rounds before anything occurs. Last mouth we told you to "tip" the blackcap raspberries an to cut out the old wood that has fruited. Not too late to do this now. Blin k berries too, should have fie old wood cat not. Look out tor frost Into this mouth. Tomato vines, etc, may be protected cold uights by a covering of straw, newspapers, cloths otn. On largo fields, smudge fires will often save a srop from frost damage. Winter onion sets should go into the ground early this month. They are quite hardy, but a light muloh of leaves, straw or litter won't hurt theni in the north ; they'll be ready for nse early in the spring. Pears are best when ripened in doors instead of on the trees. The time to pick pear is determined, first, by their known season of ripen ing ; and, second, by the ease with which the stem parts from the branch when the frnit is slightly lifted. Does your neighbor know that the Htrawberry plants are now forming dormant fruit buds for next year's crop, and that the corp thon depends largoly opon the care now? Perhaps you"ll be doing him a favor if you show him this paper and ask him to subsoribe. It is important to piok vegetables at Uie right time. If picked while the sou is at its height, they are more or leia wilted aud do not kep so well. This does not apply to beans they should never be handled while wet or they will rust. Nearly all vegetables are juicier aud sweeter if picked before they are qaite full si zed. OregonCity Oourier for one yeir, and beautiful oil ptintiui;, all for 12.00.
