Early Garden Work.
As soon this month as the frost is
out of the ground, ]x?as can be sown,
of the extra early and eari v frame va
rieties. Thev should be sown rather
shallow. They are a hardy plant, and
will stand some freezing, and are
sometimes seen poking their noses
through the snow qnite unharmed.
Cauliflowers should be now transplant
ed in the hotbed, and not a day should
be lost. Onions can be set whenever
the ground is fit. In warm borders,
parsnip, horned carrot, long scarlet
radish, celery, cabbage and spinach
seed can be sown about the middle of
the month. Rhubarb, to get a supply
at once, should he set out by separa
ting the roots. So with horse radish;
but a little of the crown of the root
should be attached to each piece.
These are perfectly hardy and can be
set out at once.
All the trash in the garden that was
not cleared oft* last autumn or winter,
und is unfit to convert into manure, in
cluding the raspberry, blackberry, rose,
shrubbery and grape primings, should
be gathered up in heaps and on calm
days burned. The rose bushes should
have all the old and dead wood remo
ved, and the rest considerably short
ened if overgrown. Shrubbery also
should be thinned out where spreading
too much at the bottom, and shorten
ed in, especially where space is valua
ble*
Those who desire the autumn crop,
only, of the Cutawissa Raspberry,
should remove all the vines close to
the ground. As soon as the new shoots
are two or three inches high, a good
mulching of stable-yard manure is ex
cellent. After they reach a foot or
eighteen inches, a mulching of grass,
straw, garden rakings, Ac., should be
applied once or twice dm ing the seas
on. Raspberries, blackberries, goose
berries. Ac., require a loose, rich, moist
soil, and this is the way to provide it.
New asparagus beds can be prepar
ed now whenever the ground is in or
der. For this purpose roots, one, two
and three years old are generally used.
Wo however prefer to plant the seed,
which should be covered about two in
ches, and planted from two to three
inches apart, in hills a foot apart each
way. Three seeds should be allowed
to a hill, and stuck in a triangular
form, thus Planting the seed in
stead of the roots, will produce better
plants and afford a supply of aspara
gus just as early.— Germantoicn Tele
yraj>h.
Clear up the Front Yard.
A pleasant home should never have
an unpleasant approach. In the gen
eral clearing up in spring, do not for
get to put the frout yard 'to rights.'
\Ve do not advocate anything stiff, for
mal, or expensive. Straighten up and
repair the fence. Remove everj-thing
from the yard that does not belong
there. Have a good walk from the
gate to the front door, not one that is
sunken below the general level and al
ways flooded in rains; but let it be a
little raised so as to be passable in all
weathers. Have some flower borders
by all means, but if there is unfortu
nately neither time nor taste for these,
have grass and some trees and shrubs,
not set in stiff rows, but dotted here
and there. Then get a Virginia creep
er (American \\ oodbine) or wax work
vino from the woods, and run it over
the porch, if there is one, or if not,
run it upon the door. A climbing rose
may be easily obtained and will be ve
ry beautiful when in bloom. A small
amount of work and a little taste will
make even an humble house look at
tractive and homelike.— American A<j.
