Weather Wisdom for Gardeners joxtt t /' / '\X •• \ r V-. I 4 7"i.. r 1 fMJWIfcJ-f.., J iU-a_ / i —l *•« * VI r 1 '- 7 '7 Z 5 i - I / —' Amari \ v rt6 * MAR lV \ The map above, prepared by the U. S. Department of Agriculture, chows the eastern half of the U. S. divided into zones according to the average date of the last killing frost in the spring. Christmas is a festival of spring, about the same as Cleveland. AlIt is celebrated when the sun lowing 30 days is playing reason-

starts north from the equator. Newspaper neadlines often proclaim that the shortest day of the year is the beginning of winter, but gardeners know better. Once the days begin to lengthen, signs of spring appear in the garden. Buds swell, bark changes color, mysterious growth processes unfold even in coldest weather. With many hardy plants, the period of freezing is as necessary to their development, as the warmth which follows. Spring is near at hand and it is time to make plans for sowing seeds just as soon as it is safe. How can the safe date be determined? “Beating" the weather is a gamble which many a backyard tiller is willing to take on the chance that he may have his first crop of lettuce or radishes a few days before his neighbor. It is still a gamble, however, and the gardener who would rather be reasonably sure of his crop had best make some inquiries of his local weather station. The date of the latest recorded killing frost in your neighborhood Is an important factor. It will give you a basis for figuring just when you can take a gambling chance on an early garden with a good chance of winning. The latest killing frost on record is about a month later than the average date and so it is usually safe to plant the hardiest seeds a month ahead of it. The period of time between the latest and the average ki’ling frost date increases as we move away from the seashore. In New York there is a margin of 20 days but in St. Louis the average date is 38 days earlier than the record freezing date. Cleveland has a 36day difference and Chicago is

ably safe. Plan to start your garden a month before the latest recorded killing frost. There are many vegetables which frost will not injure, provided it is not freezing weather. In general all the root crops are hardy and do not mind frosts so long as they are not freezes; most of the crops for greens are in the

same category. But only one crop, the immature seeds of which furnish a delicious -food, can be called hardy and that i-t the pea, and only certain varieties of the pea. So while it is freezing or snowing outside gather up weather data and figure the date for the earliest possible start this year. It is a waste of seed to start too early and a waste of time to start a day too late. The frost records will give you a reliable basis of figuring just the right time. If the plants should be nipped you are not out much but if they are not you are just that much ahead with the garden and the odds are greatly in favor of escaping a killing frost. o Rigid Regulations Urged In Measures Indianapolis.
