Rich Garden Harvest From Simple Technique

R' ►-C. Space Gardea Rows Accurately.

How far apart should rows in the vegetable or cutting garden be planted? There is no standard answer to this question. Market growers may plant radishes, for example. in rows that vary from two kichcs apart, in rich, mellow, weedlets soil, to three feet, where it is desired to cultivate them with horse or tractor. The home garden, which can be watered when necessary, and supplied with plant food as required, should be laid out chiefly for convenience in cultivating; except that vine and bushy crops should have the room they need to develop For the leaf and root crops, dwarf peas and beans, and most flowers, the width between rows may be equal to the space you can cultivate with one trip ot the wheel hoe. or whatever cultivator you may use. This is likely to be 1* inches. Taller growing vegetables, cabbages. cauliflowers and tomatoes, should have up to twice as much: and vine crops four to six feet It dues not pay to crowd. Above all whatever spacing you decide upon, make it uniform, and reasonably exact. The few minutes it takes to measure your rows will be saved many times when cultivating begins! and you will be proud of a garden which has straight rows, evenly spaced. In a well-fed small garden, properly laid out the maturing crops, while having plenty of room to grow, will cover the area so well with their leaves that few weeds c n grow, which much reduces midr . -er care. tiou ot the word amTnabk ! , 3.

1 twin wwfi •Sj Mini I Make Drill, for Seeding Mr sight.

Many tools ar* available to the modern gardener for performing garden tasks; some go armed with more implements than a golfer uses. But whatever other tools you carry. when it comes to marking rows a garden sane is needed Stretch the garden line fairly tight between the stakes which mark the row: and sec that you sow your seeds along iL Some gardeners find a standard hoe the most useful of all tools, and capable of performing a remarkable variety at tasks. Using one comer, a shallow drill can be marked, in whieh seeds of the crops wbieh are grown in drills may be sown. A drill to simply a shallow trench, half an Inch deep for the usual small seeds, up to two inches for peas, beans and onion sets. Some crops the directions tell you to sow in "hills.” Except in regions of heavy rainfall and poor drainage, this does not mean an elevation. It simply means that several seeds are sown in a group <to be thinned out later) and the groups are spaced some distance apart, in contrast to the continuous "drill" Cut a stick to measure the desired distance between "hills” and space them along the garden line If several rows of "hills" are used, it is a good plan to stagger the spacing, so that each hill in one row win line up with a vacant space xn the adjoining row.

I't * Sow Your Seed Thinly.

Market growers use mechanical seeders to sow their crops, but most amateurs sow seeds direct from the packet by hand The technique is quickly acquired Tear off one end of the packet and examine the seed If they are small it will pay to mix with them three times their bulk in light colored sand, perfectly dry. Mix it thoroughly. By holding the packet as shown m the illustration, and tapping it gently with the forefinger, the <ecd can be made to drop evenly m the row. and the sand will prevent sowing too thickly While it is not essential that the garden line be left until seeding u done, there is an advantage in having it there, to insure straight-line sowbarge seeds may be placed individually. and this will make your seeds go farther, and lessen the need for thinning out later, always a difficult task. It is usually wise to sow a few more than you expect to grow, because even though seed may germinate 100 per cent, there are always accidents and adverse weather conditions which may destroy a few plants. After sowing, rake soil over the seeds and tamp it down with the foot or hoe blade. Soil and seed must be in close contact so that when germination starts food in liquid form may be extracted from the soil to nourish the growing MHfei

■Kwmoß Gardeners Always Win Reward.

Is there any recreation which has greater rewards than gardening? Whether you grow flowers or vegetables, you always win a prise. That is why gardeners, as a class, are such happy individuals Their favorite pastime has its conflicts, and its disappointments, but these invariably lead through an exciting and dramatic sequence to s happy ending. What difference does it make whether one grows flowers or vegetables? Both give wholesome exercise in the sunshine Both intrigue us with their fascinating development from tiny seed, to seedling, to mature plant Whether we grow a cucumber or a zinnia, we experience pride in the final result of our skill and carefulness. That is the greatest reward of gardening. But in addition we have substantial dividends: from the vegetable plot we harvest food of a quality which cannot be bought in markets. and serve it on the table at its peak of tenderness and flavor because vegetables, after they are picked, deteriorate rapidly Market vegetables have usually been deteriorating many hours before we serve them: while the home garden product may be served immediately after it has been harvested. Flowers reward us in a twofold manner: they decorate the outdoor department of the home, and so contribute one of summer's major delimits: and they may be brought, with their perfume ana* beauty, into the home, the church, and the school to impart the atmosphere of the garden.

I private driveway, so until you are sure you can get into th: lino of t raff Ice without accident, na.t—be alert— be careful. It's Smart to drive Cnrefnlly.
