. Kellogg's great crops of small fruits : and how he grows them. Nurseries (Horticulture) Michigan Ionia Catalogs; Fruit Seedlings Catalogs. A Floater. from below. The particles of earth must be brought near together. If you do not have a roller, take three two-inch planks about seven feet long and one foot wide; bolt or spike the edges together like the siding on a house and hitch a chain to each end and load it with as much stone as the team can drawr and go over the surface. On many soils it will do better work than a roller. Do not attempt to set plants in loose The Marker. Marking- off the ground. Have your ground properly firmed, leveled and rolled so the perfection plant setter will set the plants exactly the right depth or if you use the dibble or spade, you can determine quickly the right depth for setting plants. Mark as lightly as possible where the rows are to be. For this purpose we take a board about one- half inch thick, eight or ten inches wide and long enough to mark four rows at a time. Make four short sled runners and nail them under the board the distance the rows are to be apart, and nail shafts or handles on the top to draw it with. A man can draw it all day without fatigue. The object of using a thin board is to make it bend and accommodate itself to the uneven surface of the ground. Get the first row per- fectly straight and let one runner go in the last mark as a guide. This will make all the rows exactly so far apart so that late in the season when your plants get larger you can remove one or two teeth of the weeding machine and cultivate two rows at a time, enabling you to use the weeder all summer, doing the cultivating at the rate of fifteen or twenty acres per day. TOOLS. We herewith give a description of some very desirable tools with name and address of the manufacturers. We do not handle them and you should address the parties direct, who will advise you as to where they can be had, with price, etc. For berry boxes, crat
