professor of vegetable gardening. In
view of the inability to get manure,
be offers the following suggestions
on the use of commercial fertilisers
on vegetable land:
A commercial fertiliser contain
ing 3 per cent nitrogen, 7 or 8 per
cent phosphoric acid and 2 to 3 per
oent potash, may profitably be
broadcast over the garden In the
spring at the rate of 6 to 8 pounds
to the square rod. Thia should light
ly be harrowed Into the soil.
Nitrate of soda Is particularly
useful for such plants as lettuce,
cabbage, cauliflower, onions and cel
ery, grown for their leafy parts. The
normal application Is at the rate of
abont 1 pound to the square rod.
Sometimes It Is more economical to
apply to the plants In the row, one
half to one ounce for each plant.
None should be allowed to stand on
the leaves, as It will burn them.
' Hardwood ashes, 40 to 50 pounds
to the square rod, may be harrowed
In in the spring. . If too much is
used It may make the soli alkali and
Is Your Home Really
Modern?
Perhaps you have a boose with strictly modern plumbing and heat
ing. ' Do you realize thut unless it is wired fur an ELECTRIC
RANGE you hove neglected the min-t valuable and up-to-date fea
ture of all?
Oar combined LIGHTING, COOKING AND HEATING RATE is not
expensive. This is an Itemized statement of one of our cnstlniers
with five children and two adnlts, who installation consists of a
STANDARD ELECTRIC RANGE AND LIGHTS:
almost worthless. Lime and some
available potash are added to the
soil in the ashes. .
Poultry manure Is valuable tor
certain leafy vegetables, but Is high
ly concentrated and will readily
burn. It should he mixed with 3 or
4 times Its bulk of soil In the iorm
of compost, or spread very thinly
over the ground and harrowed In.
Mothers Should see that the
Jrhole family take at least 3 or 4
doses of a thoro, purifying, system
cleaning medicine this spring. Now
Is the time. The family will be
healthier, happier, and get along
better If the blood Is given a thoro
purifying, the stomach and bowels
cleaned out, and the germs of Winter
accumulated In the system, driven
away. Hamster's Rock Mountain
Tea is one of the very 'best and surest
Spring medicines to take. Get it and
see the difference in the whole fam
ily. Their color will be better, they'll
feel fine and be well and happy.
