Most people like to plant at once, as soon as spring opens and land can be made ready; others prefer to prepare the land, then get plants, trim both root and top, and trench them in for two or three weeks till they begin to throw out feeding roots. By this time weeds in the field are well sprouted, and another good harrowing equals two or three hoeings at far less cost. How to plant comes next. Distance between rows will depend on methods of culture and varieties; but whatever the system, level culture is best, and plants should neither be set on Wavs of Plantina or in hollows, except for local reasons. Check off rows in any way ways 01 ridniing easiest and surest to get straight rows, at equal distances apart. I prefer a line for initial rows at least. Plants, with roots and tops well pruned, are best moved about in cloth- lined baskets; a plunge bath of basket, plants and all, just when ready to plant, puts plants in proper shape for setting, which in nine fields out of ten may be done by hand without use of trowel or dibble, if the land has been well prepared. Plants should be dropped only so fast as they can be set. Thus the roots remain moist when they go under ground, dirt sticks to them well, and ordinarily, if work is done early in the season, there will be no necessity for further watering.
