H. G. Corney of E. P. Roe's farms offers plain directions for forming and caring for a strawberry bed. Use deep rich loam, well rotted manure, and thorough deep soil preparation, with careful planting, root protection, mulching, and early spring top-dressing to maximize yield and plant health. Choose varieties like Bidwell Duchess for early, Charles Downing Sharpless Cumberland Triumph for mid, and Golden Defiance Kentucky Mount Vernon for late.
A columnist urges gardeners to bury kitchen bones near grapevines and fruit trees rather than discarding them. Deep burial helps roots access nutrients from bone fragments, boosting fertility and fruit development. large bones break down slowly but eventually feed roots. Also notes experiments suggesting surface manure on hills may be less effective than targeted placement. early plant growth may rely less on soil nutrients than anticipated.
