Success with "gan en crops, such as onions potatoes, cabbage; ete. soi must. be suitable, cultivation must be thorough, varieties the best for the district and the market, and good" galesmanship. The plot selected for the should be well drained, and must not be shaded to any. extent. Drainage takes away surface wa- ter rapidly, and keeps the soil wa- ter away from the surface, there- by allowing the reots to grow deep 'and the air to enter the soil and aid in decomposing it. Fertility is another most important feature. The need for fertalizér is shown by low growth and pale color in the plans. Stable manure, bone meal, or good commercial fertilizer should bé used to renew the elements re- quired by the soil. Germination. Crops are often lost through the failure of the seeds to germinate. Don't blame your seedsman for this. It is usually because in ,planting the soil is left loose about the tiny seeds, and the dry atmosphere. pene- trates to them, shrivelling them up until. all vitality is destroyed. Vegetable. crops as a rule are sown in rows, and in every case, as soon as the seed is sown, it should be pressed down in, the drill with the: foot, then covered up level by the back of a rake, drawn lengthwise of the drills, and again firmed by the roller or back of & spade, For want of this simple precaution, perhaps one-quarter of all seeds sown fail to germinate.

The crops should be moved around from year to year, so as to give the soil a chance to recuperate. Where a number of successive plantings are desirable, as with peas, it is an excellent plan. to plant a third or fourth erop between the rows of the first crop, removing the vines of the firé® crop as soon as the peas have been picked. The observance of the foregoing suggestions, along with instructions for planting, which most reliable |® seedsmen supply with purchases of seeds and plants, should enable any thoughtful and ambitious person to make a success of growing the com- mon and most popular summer vegetables. ixtensive Potato Cultivation, The potato is probably more in demand at all times, and will show a better proportionate profit, year in and year out, than any other farm crop. In next week's issue of this paper will appear' an article dealing thoroughly and interesting- ly with the methods of one success: ful farmer in Western Ontario, who bas grown potatoes extensively for 43 years, and who last year sold $1,200 worth of potatoes from a twelve-acre patch of his 150-acre farm. Don't fail to read this article. Here are some interesting facts| lan cited by the farmer about whom the article is written: 'The first two crops after win |in twenty-one thousand tile for the underdraining i in Syorenned yield per acre. "When you take much food*from | said the soil you must return a like amount or. your soil. will soon play: out. This spring we used about five tone of fertilizer, as well as several hundred loads of manure.' "In the last two years I have sold fifteen thousand bushels of potatoes from this farm, and have not had one single complaint as to quality."' "Up to the year 1900 the total value of 'stuff sold off my farm'| 233 amounted to $41,724.98. The ten Howing 1900 would add easi- ly. another $40,000 to that sum,' '"Phis last year I had at least|4 Put these I can raise one acre of potatoes for twen- ty dollars, easily."

A young singer who had been studying for opera work had the good fortune to be engaged by an ampresario for a tour through South America. His chest swelled with pride as he walked the deck of-the steamer that was to take him on his first trip to foreign lands. On the second morning out he was much surprised to meet an old classmate; 'who, like himself, was a tenor) singer: ell, well, where did you come from} 'Where are you going 7" each 'asked the other. And each answered, 'I'm engaged | by an oper ompany for a South ou or ys is on this steamer, id pl Tinie; too." ithin five minutes both singers found that they had been engaged by th same . part. mean by hiring two.
