—I Make snre that the cold frames a| ( . in good condition. You will I be using them before long. if last year's garden was a faHure. don't put ull H- ««me on drought. Make an honest chockup on your garden activities, and Z if there w.-re not seve.nl things neglected, then, whh althe. fads at hand, plan the new garden. A better watering system will allay much trouble if we get another drought this season. Do your gardening with pencil and paper this time of the year. A plan well thought out beforehand will invariably result in the best garden. If you have a fireplace, remember that the ashes from the oak logs represent real money as garden fertiliier. Save them! Otherwise you may find yourself at the seed store buying them or their equivalent. Pick out a location for a oompost heap and really start one this year. It is the cheapest method
