AS TO CROP PRODUCTION
(Continued from Page t.)
you sent me arrived in good condi
tion and were planted on May 18.
They all did well with tlio exception
of three of th0 raspberry canes,
which died.
Brussels sprouts planted April 24
formed sprouts just over 1 inch In
diameter. Onion seed planted May
21 made bulbs about 1& to 2 inch
es iu diameter. Cabbage seed plant
ed outdoors May 23 formed email
heads. Lettuce, radishes, beets,
peas, parsnips, parsley, carrots,
rutabagas, and turnips did fairly
well. Beans, as usual, were a fail
ure.
The root maggots did not bother
the turnips much this year, but they
concentrated all their energies on
the cauliflowers, with tho rosult th;.tf
there were none left for me. They
evidently prefer cauliflower to cab
bage, sus both grew in the same
patch and not a cabbage was touch
ed.
I was also bothered by a small
brown-winged beetle which came off
the fireweed and doveured the buds
on the potato vines. It also at3
some of tho leaves on th© apple
trees and strawberry plants. I sup
pose I will have to spray next year.
We had a frost here about the
middle of August which nipped the
peas and the potato vines, and abou
September 1 another frost killed
everything. Consequently the po
tatoes were not very large, but
they are of good quality.
Th-> Petrowslci turnip is earlier
than the white varieties, and he-!
sides being almost exempt from tho
attacks of the root maggot, is very
sweet and tender. I will set some
out for seed next summer. 1 sav
ed a quantity of turnip seed this
summer from turnips which grew
out all winter; also some kale and
radish seed.
Alfalfa sowed on June t> was up
on June 13, but did not do very
well except where it was shaded
by weeds. There it attained a
height of 1 loot. If it survives the
winter I will sow another smv-ll
patch in the spring with oats .is a
nurse crop.
On the viiole, the garden did not
stow as well this summer as it did
last year, but in Klukwan there
were some very fine gardens. AVhen
cue sees tomatoes, cucumbers, and
com flourishing outdoors, as they
were in Klukwan last summer, it
encourages to further effort.

said Mrs. McBrien "that we have

so that the new phone locations
may be given a number, and the
uamea and addresses of the sub

that our friends and patrons will
