Mountain Grove Nurseries. 35 Small Fruits. The small fruits, such as Strawberries, Raspberries, Blackberries, Gooseberries, Currants, etc., ripening from the middle of May until Fall, are everywhere capable of successful cultivation, and yield large returns at comparatively small expense.

First of the small fruits, in the month of May comes the beautiful, wholesome and appetizing Strawberry. The profits which may result from its cultivation, when properly conducted, are enough to satisfy the highest expectations. On a sandy and gravelly loam, the well known author of the "Fruit Garden," Mr. P. Barry, of Rochester, planted Wilson's Albany, and picked at the rate of almost three hundred bushels per acre, averaging about one thousand dollars. This is enormous, but shows what can be done under favorable circumstances. Plant in March, April, May, September or October on good ground, deeply worked and well, manured. Vegetable manure (muck, rotted turf, woodsoil, ashes, etc.) is the best. Bonedust is excellent. Set in 4 foot rows, 15 inches apart in row for field culture ; and 15 inches each way for garden, leaving a pathway at every third row. Keep in hills with runners cut, unless troubled with the white grub. Cultivate clean, mulch late in Fall, uncover crowns early in Spring, remove mulch after fruiting, and spade in a light dressing of BUBACH NO.
