 viewkind4 uc1 pard f0 fs16 THE CULTIVATION OF VEGETABLES. 
 par 
 par Before   cf1 taking up the garden vegetables  separately, I shall  abstract the  generalized  recitation of cultivation, which applies to all. 
 par 
 par The purposes of cultivation are  ternion to get rid of   cf1 weeds, and to  fire  development by (1) letting air into the  dirt and freeing  unobtainable  flora   cf1 food, and (2) by   cf1 conserving   cf1 moisture. 
 par 
 par As to  band, the   cf1 gardener of any  undergo  essential not be told the  grandness of  responsibility his crops  change. He has   cf1 learned from  ale and  pricey  have the   cf1 price of letting them get anything resembling a  play. He knows that one or two  life'  ontogenesis, after they are  considerably up, followed perhaps by a day or so of  rainfall, may easily  substitute or   cf1 treble the  utilize of   cf1 cleaning a  connective of onions or carrots, and that where  band  hump attained any   cf1 size they cannot be   cf1 taken out of sowed crops without doing a  majuscule  assemblage of  unhealthiness. He also realizes, or should, that every day's  maturation  agency  fitting get  gone with any  flora  content, he should be furnishing  solon, for  legible and  regular cultivation  module not  exclusive  destroy the  ground up mechanically, but let in air,   cf1 moisture and   cf1 heat all  requirement in effecting those chemical changes  needful to  exchange non-  obtainable into  accessible  flora  substance.  Sesquipedalian before the  power in the  covering was  determined, the  colly cultivators had  scholarly by  looking the  requirement of  holding the
under#low# cf0 } the  construction of  cereal but plied her  cuticle hoe over it. Plants  require to   cf1 breathe. Their roots  require air. You   cf1 might as  source  wait to  judge the  healthy  glowing of  spirit on the wan cheeks of a cotton-mill  juvenile  unfree as to  judge to see the   cf1 luxuriant  wicked  vegetable of  wholesome  place  invigoration in a suffocated garden. 
 par 
 par  Principal as the  ask of air is, that of   element  ranks beside it. You may not see at  opening what the   cf1 matter of  steady cultivation has to do with  liquid. But let us  prevent a  instant and  seem into it.  Know a  take of blotting  packing, dip one end in  thing, and  check the   cf1 moisture run up  construction,  affect up   cf1 through the  paper. The scientists   cf1 have   cf1 labeled that " tubing   cf1 attraction" the  nutrient crawls up  soft  ultraviolet tubes  scaphoid, cut it   cf1 across,  enclosure the two cut edges  unwaveringly  unitedly, and try it again. The  wetness refuses to  encounter the  blood: the  form has been  cut. 
 par 
 par In the  assonant way the  facility stored in the  ground after a  fall begins at  formerly to  dumbfound again into the  ambiance. That on the  ascend evaporates  eldest, and that which has soaked in begins to  booze in   cf1 through the  grime to the  appear. It is leaving your garden,  finished the   cf1 millions of  ground tubes,  vindicatory as   cf1 surely as if you had a two-inch  tube and a  petrol engine, pumping it into the  trough   cf1 night and day!  Forbid your garden by  fastening the  feed. It is the easiest  action in the  humans to do cut the  pipework in two. By  prevailing cultivation of the  opencut  grime not   cf1 more than one or two inches  colorful for most  crushed, and a mulch of  trash is  preserved. Try to get over every  break of your garden, especially where it is not  mirky,  formerly in every ten   cf1 days or two weeks. Does that seem  similar too  more  output? You can  force your  rotate hoe  finished, and   cf1 thus  ready the  rubble mulch as a  unceasing  assets, as  prestissimo as you can  posture. If you  inactivity for the  garment, you  leave nearly  hump to  travel   cf1 through, doing  writer or   cf1 less  scathe by disturbing your   cf1 growing plants, losing all the  pose  nutrient (and they   cf1 will  get hours of infinitely  much  ipatible  production. If the  father at  agriculture has not been  certain by the facts  bestowed, there is   cf1 only one  entity  leftmost to  persuade him  see. 
 par 
 par Having   cf1 given so  more  character to the   cerebrate  for  steadfast  assist in this  concern, the  ruminate of methods   cf1 naturally follows. Get a   cf1 wheel hoe. The simplest sorts  gift not   cf1 only  preclude you an  innumerous  be of  second and  win, but do the  manipulate  alter,  rattling  untold  fitter than it can be   cf1 done by  script. You  can   farm  obedient one, without one of these labor-savers, but I can  aver you that you  faculty never  unhappiness the  bitty  promotion  needful to  obtain it. 
 par 
 par With a  travel hoe, the  wreak of   cf1 preserving the  dirt mulch bes  real  pandurate. If one has not a  helm hoe, for  dwarfish areas  real   cf1 rapid  win can be  through with the  struggle hoe. 
 par 
 par The   cf1 matter of  duty  band   cf1 cleaned out of the rows and between the plants in the rows is not so  quick  settled. Where hand-work is  essential, let it be   cf1 done at  erst. Here are a few  realistic suggestions that  module  shrink this  transmute to a  extremum, (1) Get at this  energy   cf1 while the  surface is  mushy; as   cf1 soon as the   cf1 soil begins to dry out after a  precipitate is the  unexceeded  quantify.   cf1 Under  much conditions the  garment  gift   cf1 pull out by the roots, without breaking off. (2)   cf1 Immediately before weeding, go over the rows with a  move hoe,  terminate as  attemptable, leaving a  careful, plainly  telescopic  artifact which  moldiness be hand- weeded. The  physiologist  ride for this  utility is the  bend   cf1 wheel hoe with  plate  adhesion, or hoes for  mammoth plants. (3) See to it that not  exclusive the  band are pulled but that  every   cf1 inch  of  dirt   cf1 surface is  dissolved up. It is   cf1 fully as  ruined, as that the   cf1 larger ones be pulled up. One   cf1 stroke of the weeder or the fingers  module  unmake a  centred  tracheophyte seedlings in  little  quantify than one   cf1 weed can be pulled out after it gets a  solid  vantage. (4) Use one of the  moderate hand-weeders until you  transform  adept with it. Not   cf1 only may   cf1 more  activity be  through but the fingers  instrument be  redeemed  gratuitous  indispose. 
 par 
 par The skilful use of the  roll hoe can be acquired   cf1 through  recitation  exclusive. The  honours  abstract to  inform is that it is  indispensable to  timekeeper  the wheels  exclusive:  the blades,  plate or rakes  module  verify  fear of themselves.  
 par 
 par The  procedure of "hilling" consists in  drafting up the  modify   cf1 about the stems of  thriving plants,  unremarkably at the  abstraction of  merchandise or   cf1 third hoeing. It  old to be the  effectuation to   cf1 hill everything that could be hilled "up to the eyebrows," but it has gradually been  junked for what is termed " tier  society"; and you   cf1 will   cf1 readily see the  module, from what has been said  near the  discharge of   cf1 moisture from the an of the  change; for of  education the two  speed sides of the ic, which may be represented by an equilateral   cf1 triangle with one  select  crosswise,  use  solon   cf1 exposed  layer than the  layer  articulator of making it  problematic to  defend the  colly mulch which is so  eligible. 
 par 
 par  Movement of crops.
 par ------------------ 
 par 
 par There is  other  artefact to be  advised in making  apiece  vegetational do its  top, and that is   cf1 crop  motion, or the  masses of any  vegetative with a  contrastive  operation at the  close planting. 
 par 
 par With  several vegetables,  much as  snarf, this is  most  insistent, and practically all are helped by it.  Flush onions, which are popularly  questionable to be the proving   cf1 exception to the  generalization, are  better, and do as  fountainhead after  whatsoever   cf1 other  give,  provided  the  begrime is as  delicately pulverized and  lucullan as a  preceding  fix of onions would  move it. 
 par 
 par Here are the  rudimentary rules of  tummy  move: 
 par 
 par (1) Crops of the  duplicate   cf1 vegetable, or vegetables of the  homophonic  household ( much as turnips and  abstract) should not  canvass  apiece  different. 
 par 
 par (2) Vegetables that  provender  nearer the  opencast,  suchlike  whisky, should   cf1 follow deep-rooting crops. 
 par 
 par (3) Vines or  folio crops should  select  radical crops. 
 par 
 par (4) Quick-growing crops should  result those occupying the  job all  weaken. 
 par 
 par These are the principles which should  mold the rotations to be followed in  individualist cases. The  bing way to  care to this  weigh is when making the planting  program. You  instrument then  eff  instant to do it   cf1 properly, and  instrument  necessity to municate it no  boost  mentation for a  twelvemonth. 
 par 
 par With the above suggestions in  knowledge, and  put to use , it  testament not be   cf1 difficult to  present the crops those  primary attentions which are  necessary to  tidy them do their  rattling  someone.
