Garden Should Be Kept Busy Till Frost Comes

This is the twelfth and last of a series of articles on vegetable gardening. BY W. H. BK ATT lE, Bureau of Plant Itidustrv, 1. s. Department of Agriculture. IF you want to pet the greatest good from your garden, you must get it started early and keep it busy until the crops are killed by the fust hard frosts in the fall. That is where the southern gardeners have the advantage, for they can have fresh vegetables right from their gardens every month of the year. Thcfe is a big band of territory extending almost entirely across the United States, including Virginia. North Carolina. Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma and parts of several other states, in which the growing season is long and vegetable crops of one kind or another can be grown during eight or nine months of the year. Then there is our northern section in which the growing season is comparatively short. Where the space is limited, a system of companion cropping is the plan to follow. Small crops like lettuce, radishes, spinash, and mustard are grow n on the same ground with tomatoes or pole beans. The small but hardy plants are planted early, then later, when the soil warms up. the tomatoes or pole beans are spotted among the smaller crops and by the time the later crops havp reached considerable size, all of the smaller crops have been harvested. > Succession planting of the garden vegetables is the important method of insuring a continuous supply, and there are two kinds of succession planting. One is where plantings of such

crops as beans and peas are made every few days during the early part ot the season to insure a continuous supply over a long period. The other type is where a second crop is planted following the first or early crop and perhaps a third crop to follow the .second crop. For example, early peas might be followed very properly by late beans: early potatoes by late sweet corn; early sweet corn’ by turnips. You can have continuous supply of certain vegetables by selection of suitable varieties. This is especially true of peas. Under favorable conditions Early Alaska peas will mature in 45 to 50 days after planting: Little Marvel and Gradus are about a week later; the Thomas Laxton requires about 60 days and the old Telephone about 70 days to mature. Lettuce, spinach, and several of the cool weather crops can be grown as a spring crop and again as a fall crop. Oiher salad and green crops like Swiss chard. New Zealand spinach and even ordinary spinach can be grown under favorable conditions during midsummer. Chinese cabbage is another excellent salad vegetable for late summer and fall culture. The beauty about the Chinese cabbage is that the mature bunches or heads can be taken into a cool pit or cellar and stored until almost mid-winter. Recently the Italian or sprouting broccoli has become one of our most popular garden vegetables. It is a cool weather crop and grows just like cabbage or cauliflower, but instead of forming heads it makes a lot of sprouts or branches that are eaten as greens.
