berry Crop

The owner* of strawberry beds In central and southern New Jersey, which have been seriously damaged by the drought, will need to give their plants special care this summer and fall If they are to have a good crop In 1»S4, says Prof. M. A. Blake, horticulturist of the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station. Not only did the d - .Might greatly reduce the yield and alee of the berries this year, but the foliage was so scorched and burned that the fields are a sorry eight. The problem now ta to develop Plants for a crop lu 1*24. The danger la that growers who plan to cany over the old fields will not till the plants eoon enough to insure a crop next spring—even with favorable weather at that time. The strawberry. like tb* apple and the peach, develops Its fruit buds the summer and fall previous to the spring in which the fruit Is produced and vigorous foliage ta neceeeary for fruit bud formation. If no frnlt bud* are developed before winter, or only a few. the crop will be email regardless of how liberal the spring tillage and fertilisation may be. Many of the plants have lost most of their foliage and will not develop much new foliage or many new run1 ner plants or buds unless they receive special attention. Where the rainfall haa been sufficient to break the drought, tbe fields should be cultivated thoroughly and be cleared of weeds as soon as possible. In addition they should receive an application of nitrate of soda at the rate of 200 pounds to the acre. Delaying treatment of a droughtburned strawberry field until late this aunSner or until next spring will result in a poor crop or a fiat failure, 'since by that time the patient will be too weak to utilise nourishment. ▲ straw perry crop la 1*24 in the drought area of 1*22 means thorough Ullage and culture now.

A number of cover crops tultable for different conditions may be sown, say* A F. Mason, fruit specialist of the State College of Agriculture. Rye ta good on poor ground where plowing la po*ible In the spring. It may be sown late, makes a good early spring growth, but must be plowed under when it gets 18 to 24 Inch*

high.

Wheat ta easier to disc when plowing ta not possible In the spring. It grows as satisfactorily aa ry# on tbe heavier soils, and costs but little more

to sow.

Vetch ta tbe beet all-around cover crop for orchards, particularly when sown In combination with crimson, red or atalke clover, wheat or rye. Crimson clover and vetch have done well on good soils while on poorer or slightly sour soils, red and atalke

have done best.

Oats and barley both make good fall cover crop* If seeded by the middle of August. On a demonstration plot la Mercer County, needed the middle of August, barley made a fall growth of 2* feet and oate a growth of II inches. A mixture of a bushel of oats or barley and 20 pounds of retch per acre io. early fall seeding la recommended for trial. If the seed Is drilled, more uniform stands may be expected, and lea# seed will be n O. chard* of early and mld-eeason peach varletl*. such aa those that come before Iron Mountain and Roberts. may be aeeued Immediately after harvest. For later varletl*. eeedlng ought to be done early In August, before the branch* are too heavily

born# down.

The beet time tor planting rye or wheat In combination with vetch la between August 16 and October 1.; Two or three pecks of ry* or wheat, to 26 pounds of vetch should be used on each acre. Vetch and the clover* should be aown In August at the rata of 16 pounds of vetch, with 6 pounds of alslke or A pounds of red clover or crimson clover to the acre. Vetch alone should be town at the

rate of 20 pounds per acre.

If vetch haa not been used before. Inoculation a d*lrable. A practical method la to mix a quart of aoll from a field wfiere the crop haa been grown succewfully, with a bushel of the seed slightly moistened. The aoll * should be taken rom several polnta at a depth of 2 to S Inch* and mixed thoroughly. |
