D'
EAR friends: The time finally
has come when it is usually safe
to set out tomato plants, and to
plant our tender vine crops, though it
is possible even yet that they may be
frosted, but not likely to happen.
The friends who have been be
moaning their frozen plants, set out
Eome time ago, should pull them up
and try again now with better
chances of success.
All our vine crops squash, pump
kin, cucumbers and melons may be
planted during this coming week.
Growing Summer Squash.
TJie ground should be prepared and
the hills should be made several days
before planting the seeds' of all the
vine crops. This was described at
length last week, but if you missed it
the essentials are a generally well
prepared soil, deep and well worked,
then laid off into hills the required
number of feet apart.
These hills need especially soft and
rich soil. If your, soil is hard, clay it
will pay you to dig it out for a spot
a foot or so square and fill in with
sand or sandy loam. Also spade in
some well-rotted manure where each
hill is to be if it is possible to obtain
it. This applies to all the vine crops
considered today.
There are two kinds of squash, the
cummer or bush squash, and the fall
and winter or vine squash.
Summer squash should be raised in
every home garden, as they take up
little room and make a welcome
variety in our food. It is said that
three to five hills should supply the
ordinary family;
The best varieties for use are the
Mammoth White Bush Scallop, Early
Tellow Bush Scallop and Golden Sum
mer Crookneck. Plant in hills four
to six feet apart each way. Plant
eight to ten seeds in each hill, cov
ering them one inch deep, and when
ine plants are well estaDlisnea tnin
them to three in a hill.
Land plaster is good for them, also
Boot from your chimneys. Give early
protection from insects as recom
mended for cucumbers.
Mid-Season and Vinter Squash.
The later vine squashes are planted
at the same time that the bush
squashes are as it takes them much
longer to mature.
The best mid-eeasdn squashes are
Delicata and Delicious, and the 'ba
nana (or sweet potato) squash is also
recommended. The fruit of Delicata
is small, like little pie pumpkin
and it makes excellent pies. This
variety is good for both summer and
winter use as they keep well into the
winter if carefully stored.. The qual
ity is excellent.
The delicious squash weigh from
five to ten pounds and are superior
to all others in quality and flavor,
being also fine winter keepers, but
have not been largely grown in the
west. It is strongly recommended to
us. however, as extra fine flavored,
dry, sweet, superior color and small
seed cavity. Oregon Agricultural col
lege' authorities urge the growth of
this squash here. They also recom
mend the banana or sweet potato
squash, which is also newly intro
duced here and not carried by all
our seedsmen yet. It is of "a long,
cylindrical shape, often growing three
feet long, about six to eight inches
in diameter and of a gray-green color.
The seed cavity is not large and the
quality is not surpassed by any
squash grown."
The old standard winter squash is
the Hubbard, which keeps till spring
and is always reliable.
One variety of these squash should
be raised in each garden as they keep
.well and need no canning or drying,
for winter use.
The fruits of the summer squashes
are used while they are young and
tender, but those of the fall and win
ter varieties are allowed to get fully
ripe before being gathered and stored.
.'our or five hills will be sufficient
and a space 10 to 12 feet should be
allowed between the hills. Plant and
care for like other squash.
I'lnntine Pumpkins.
Only one variety of pumpkins is
recommended for home gardeners
that is the Winter Luxury, and it is
a medium sized, finely flavored fruit,
enormously productive and with fine
keeping qualities.
Squash and pumpkin are said to
be the easiest of all vegetable crops
to grow and harvest. Both are usu
ally grown between the- hills of corn
in the home garden where they do
.well in the soil suitable for corn.
They may also be planted in any
out-of-the-way corner, and are or
namental in covering some unsightly
place. But try to have them well
separated, as squash and pumpkin
will mix" if near together and the
fruit deteriorate.
Plant pumpkin in hills 6 to 8 feet
apart each way, using six to eight
seeds to a hill and later thin to three
plants to the hilL
Growing; Cifcnnibers.
The Hills for cucumbers can be
made about four feet apart with good
results. United States Department of
Agriculture Bulletin No. 1044 recom
mends making the hill3 seven feet
apart. A lady told me the other
day that she always made her hills
for cucumbers "Tight near together"
about two feet apart and she had
-just loads of them." She had very
rich soil, however, but our soil in
Oregon is generally good, so that
lour feet apart is usually a safe dis
tance, especially where they aro well
watered.
It is customary to plant about a
dozen seeds in each hill where you
have reason to dread insect pests,
covering them to the depth of about
an inch. Later the plants should be
thinned to three to five to a hill. The
Davis Perfect and Boston Pickling
are the kinds recommended for us.
The young cucumber plants are oft
en destroyed by a small beetle. The
easiest way to protect the plants is
to cover each hill with a small bot
tomlesB Wooden box over which a
piece of mosquito netting has been
tacked, or a bottomless tin can or
pail may be used.
It will be easy for the home gar
dener to tack together a few of these
boxes for his hills of cukes and in el
Ions, but it would require too much
work probably for the growers who
wrote us some time ago about plant-
xng quite an area to cucumbers. It
would not be a very great deal of
trouble, however, for them to make
bauds two or three inches wide of
two or three thicknesses of heavy
paper folded over and over, and fasten
eacn witn a pin. 1 lien if these are
securely in the ground around
hill just as the cucumbers come
great deal in
insects. After
are quite large "when set out they
resist their insect enemies better.
But if you did not grow the plants
yourself ybu can buy them at your
seedsman's ready to set out, and I
would strongly advise you to do this
that they may have an early start.
These plants are grown in pots or
'flats" and must be set out very
carefully, pot and .all, so as not to
disturb the roots, as melons and cu
cumbers will not stand having their
roots disturbed in the least. They
should be eight to ten inches high
and about ready to vine when set in
the ground.
As it is difficult in some seasons
to make them maturevall their fruit
before being killed by frost in the
fall, melons must be forced in every
way possible. Set them in the warm
est, sunniest location you have. The
south side of a building where they
will get reflected sunlight is a good
place then give them plenty of wa
ter to drink.
Muskmelon seeds may now be
planted in the ground and will grow
rapidly in rich, soft soil. Hills of
muskmelon should be six feet apart
each way and especially prepared
and enriched as has been described
above. Melons need even more ma
nure than- other vines, and it is a
goad plan to make little holes near
the growing plant and bury extra
manure or commercial fertilizer there.
Plant 12 to 15 seeds in each hill, as
many may be eaten by insects. Pro
tect them with paper collars, etc.,
as has been described. When well
grown, thin to two or three of the
stockiest vines to each hill.
The Emerald Gem is a good kind
and matures well here, as I have
found by personal experience. Bur
rell's Gem is also good, but the popu
lar Rocky Ford is a hot climate vari
ety and not adapted to our local conJ
uuiuiis, so snouiu not De piantea nere.
Growing Watermelons.
Watermelons are not asysure to ma
ture here as muskmelons are, yet if
you raise the right kind and start
them early you are pretty sure to
have some good melons,; which will
be all the more valued as uncommon
in home gardens. The' green melon
can be used as mangoes in pickles.
Hungarian Honey andjOregon Prize
are the only two kinds which are
guaranteed to mature here in Port
land. They are grown just like musk
melons except that they are planted
in hills 8 to 10 feet apart each way.
It is possible to raise any o these
vine plant by training them up on a
trellis or other support like any other
vine, and this may well be attempted
wnere your garden space is very
iimuea.
Of course the objection to this is
the weight of the fruit, which is so
heavy that the vine cannot support it
unaided. But if you train squash or
melons on a fence, etc., you can fasten
slings of cloth under the fruit to hold
it up, or prop it up securely from be
low in some way. This is much more
work than letting the fruit rest se
curely on the ground, and only recom
mended where you want to make a
few feet of soil as productive as pos-
However. I see no reason why cu
cumbers cannot be grown as any up
right vine is. This spring I saw three
greenhouses full of cucumber vines
trained each on a cord and running
to the top of the greenhouse. The
cucumbers were borne in profusion
and the vines had no trouble in hold
ing up extra large ones. Outdoor
vines would be much less tender than
the hothouse vines and should support
their fruit more easily. It would be
interesting to experiment with grow
ing one hill of cucumbers upright
like pole beans. They could be pruned
and cared for generally like staked
tomatoes are. If you do this I would
, like to see your vines later.
Selecting; Tomato Plants.
We are all supposed to have o-r
own tomato plants, 6eeded in our hot-
oea. transplanted two or three times
and now large, stocky plants ready to
set in the garden. If you are unfor
tunate enough not to have these, you
must buy of your seedsman and be
sure, aDove an things, that it is a re
liable seedsman and a. nmri variety
It has been amazing to me this spring
seusiuie-appearing middle-aged
men aim women ouying "some to
mato plants" at the corner grocery or
department store and lugging them
proudly home two months before they

wnat varieties have been already

stunted by cold that they will never
amount to much. But when you go
now to buy be sure you get the right

climate is not especially adapted to
tomatoes, and. like melons, we must
buy particular kinds to have them do
well here. The free government seeds
nave ine stone. tomato, an old, rather
"""" 'ate Kind, if you plant it
you
will get some fruit probably, though
not enough but you are very likely
to get that variety if you ask for
"some tomato plants."
The best kinds of tomatoes for this
locality are Bonny Best, Earhana
Chalk's Early Jewel and Puget Sound
Special, the first seeming to be gain
ing in favor lately. Where tomato
preserves are liked a few plants of
Yellow Plum or Yellow Pear or little
Red Cherry should be grown. Ex
trmely early, they are very'produc
tive and of much milder flavor than
the large red tomatoes.- This is also
true of Golden Queen, which is espe
cially fine for salads. A few plants
of these specialties will be a great
addition to your garden. .
In general a dozen good tomato
plants, well cared for, will provide
all a small family will need to use for
the table and can, but tomatoes are
useful in so many ways that it is well
J.o be sure to have enough.
But the choice of variety is not
enough. You must also choose your
plants carefully. Do not select the
very large, tall, spindly ones in blos
som, but select by the stem largely.
If you can get plants with a stocky.
well colored stem, it doesn't make
much difference that they are smaller
plants. The ideal tomato plant looks
like a stocky, sturdy little tree.
If the tall, pale-stemmed ones are
all you can get, you mtist'set a stout
stake by each and tie to it carefully.,
xney aiso snouia nave a sningie set
on the south side of them if there is
hot sunshine, until they "stock up"
(if they ever do).
Setting; Ont Tomato Plants.
Soma time ago we described the
best way to set out plants generally,
but for fear you did not see it I will
speak especially of setting out to
mat plants,- though these methods
apply to setting out all plants In the
garden.
It is extremely important that to
mato plants be set out right, as it
will probably make weeks, of differ
ence in their early growth and ma
turity. First, be sure you keep the
plant roots moist, well covered, with
soil, dampened and wrapped, as they
are when purchased, until you take
them, one by one, to set out. Never
let the sun shine or the wind blow
on the exposed roots.
Second, the soil for the bed should
be worked up deep and fine. Never
make raised beds, however. Do not
have the soil too rich, as that causes
a rank leaf growth at the expense
of your fruit.
Now measure off your ground and
set stakes where you intend to put
your plants. Tomatoes are usually
planted about three to four feet apart
each way, but if you intend to train
them up to stakes they can be grown
nearer together. I would not advise
doing this, myself, unless your gar
den space is very limited, as you sac
rifice quantity to quality and the re
turns dd not justify the labor in
volved, it seems to me.
Third, it is better to transplant as
soon after a rain as the ground is in
good condition, if you can do so. But
ir ine weather comes off hot and
cloudless and you feel that the plants
should be set out now. water the bed
well where you" intend to set vour
plants. A sprinkling of the top isn't
enough. The bed should be irrigated
t night and the water allowed to
soak in over night. Dig down and
see that the soil is wet down six
inches or so, so that it will be moist
below the plant roots. Now rake the
bed. over carefully, making a dirt
mulch over the wet soil below and
leave the bed until late afternoon to
set the plants.
Fourth, now you are ready to dig
a hole at each marked place and set
in your plants. Dig the hole for each
plant just as you set it, not before so
that it dries out. Try to spread out
the roots carefully as you set the
plant in the hole and set it an inch or
so deeper down than it was before.
Fill in the soil and press it firmly
around the roots, so that the hole is
about half filled up. Now pour in
about a cupful of water and let it
settle, then fill up with soil, and
lastly stir the soil carefully on top
to preserve the soil mulch, which acts
as a blanket to keep the moisture
from escaping.
Plants set out in this . way will
never even wilt in the hot sun next
day. and it will pay the commercial
growers to take this care in setting
out tneir large areas, particularly
Keeping the roots moist, in pressing
tne son well around them- and espe
cially in pouring a little water ii
around each before filling up the top.
We used to set a row, pressing the
dirt around the roots, then water it.
ana Dy tne time we were back to the
beginning again the water had sunk
in so we could hoe in the rest of the
soil around the plant. It pays to do
tnis in not dry weather.

Unheard-of Wages.
Laborers In
Trieste Take Control
t Shipyards.
mRIESTE; May 8. There is a vol
JL canic turmoil amongst the work
ing population of this city, now under
Italian control. The employes of the
shipbuilding yards are constantly
striking for hitherto unheard-of de
mands. Recently the operatives of
the Lloyd arsenal struck for a rep
resentative voice in the managemen
and a share of the profits. The scale
demanded would give some of the op
erative wages and bonuses' aggregat
ing 40,000 lire monthly, which would
amount to $8000 in normal times.
The operatives of the Cosulich ship
yards introduced -the newest ruse in
labor disputes. They issued an iiltl
matum to the management stating
fchat if their demands were not com
plied with in ten days they would go
into the plant by force and take pos
session of it. The demands were
three: First, a share in the profits
second, a voice in the management
third, the dismissal of Captain Cosu
lich, the manager and chief owner
the yards. Officials made prepara-
ions to resist by the posting of Bom
attalions of soldiers armed with
armored motorcars and machine guns
but the operatives' terms were com
plied with before any disorder oc
curred.
Strong bolshevik elements preva
in the city. Demonjtrations are held
every Sunday, when cries of "Hurra
for Lenine. Trotzky, Soviets, etc: are
heard. The military guard of the city
has recently been increased and
close surveillance is maintained ove
the gatherings.
