Questions

1 Is it too late to sow turnip seeds?
Just the best time

2 What the best way to make an
asparagus bed? Make it very rich
plant the roots in the spring,
keep the weeds down with salt
put on in April and thick enough
to look white on the ground

3 Has any one experience in getting rid
of grown ivy? No

4 When trim raspberries, and how
much? After they are done bearing
cut out all canes which bore this
year and leave three young canes
for next years fruit.

We found the garden looking
well; long rows of tomato plants!
strawberry beds, sweet potatoes and
other vegetables all were flourishing.

The flower garden was in good order

A.B. Davis of Va. was doing wonderfully
well. Tho' only planted this Spring.
