what varieties of strawberries and rasp

the aoil named? 1'lease name only one
or two kinds of each, and let them l*e
the best an to pro iuctiveness and market
value, f have pur based some hipd
near Griffir. and don’t want to go wrong
in setting it in frmt.
Yours truly.

This compost applied in th« winter, Is

the land lie sufficiently rich to cause a

In the more southern portion of Geor¬

nave seen very fine crops raised from
such sowings. Iu view of the fact that
a large portion of tho corn crop was ent

where practicable, to of sow millet largely and such of

other food ctups ok will supplement this
