I WHAT IS .•' JHJO'I IHOME /’SIR GARDENS

Home Garden Offsets High Food Costs Enables Householder to Maintain Standards of Living Without Increase of Income. With the recent increase in cost of food products, backyard gardening again assumes economic importance in the average American home, and millions of vegetable garden* will be made this spring because of the money which can be saved, as well as for the fun of making them, and the superior quality of their product. With all the talk, of dietetics, ’’greens,” and vitamins, it ha* become pretty well known that besides the savings resulting from a home garden, the heajth and vigor to be had from good fresh vegetable* from your own garden is incalculable in terms of dollars and cents. Those families who are limited to an inelastic budget, those who would protect their health, and more especially those who would enjoy the taste of real fresh vegetables, should begin to plan early. If you are in the habit of growing a casual row of peas, or beans, or corn, ju*t becajise your mother always did, that’s one thing, but if you want a garden that will really assist in filling in the family budget, that’s quite, another.

<Sat • HOW MUCH BETTER IS THE FLAVOR OF VEGETABLES THAT HAVE BEEN GROWN IN YOUR. OWN GARDEN from a reliable weed house, and then begin to plan for just how many vegetables you can grow in the coming sea-son. Remember that you should have fresh vegetables from May until September, and should plan accordingly. If your space is only ten by twenty feet, you can eliminate com. potatoes, pumpkins and others thaj take a lot of space, concentrating on the smaller varieties. But no matter how large or small, there are some vegetable* that you can grow. First of all, then, determine just what you want to have on the amount of space available. Your seed catalog will assist you here. The next etep is to decide on how many are wanted, when they would be most useful, and exactly what spot in the garden will ac-

1 commodate them. Do this by making a chart of the garden, row by row, recording the variety and date of first planting, the approximate date of the harvest, and what Is to succeed. The principle of succession—that is, following one vegetable with another — is very Important if a, large production is ’seeded in a small space. For instance, the first sowing in one row could be a hardy crop such as ;pcas, and when that Is harvested, tomato sets might be put in, to be followed by a quick growing full radish or lettuce, or u frostresisting legume, such us turnips. By planning with careful attention given to succession, you can ihave u garden thaj will thrill the pocket book as well as the palate, J it will be fun in the bargain. 13 Ex-Bolshevist Leaders Executed Moscow, Feb.
