Havoyoua small garden? Ifnot, why? I?
There Is no reason why anyone with
The slightest taste for the pursuit
should not be successful in raising
4 garden with very small expense or
effort. Unfortunately in most works
On horticulture, and in all short art
:cles on the subject it is taken Ior
granted that the reader has some pre-
vious knowledge OF the business, or at
any rate has his garden already pre-
pared by an expert. This will not be
the case with many who intend to
move into suburban homes this spring
so it is for their benefit the following
hints are given. Even the circum-
5cribed area available at the back of q
twenty-five foot frontage, will, il prop
erly handled, furnish enough green
delicacies to materially reduce the
grocery bills during the summer, and
add much to the health and comfort Of
the family, for a twenty-five foot lot
OF ordinary depth should permit the
rear fifty feet to be used for gardening
purposes.
In many instances careless contract
ors scatter the subsoil removed when
excavating Easements all over the lot
When this has been the case the work
Of preparing the garden ground is in
creased as this unfertiIe soil must be
removed, until not more than three
inches are left on the plot it is pro-
posed to cultivate. When this Is well
leveled the ground can be treated the
same way as il still covered with sod,
the trenching being carried slightly
deeper. The ground having been made
reasonably level the best course to
pursue is to stretch garden line three
feet from the fence lengthwise of the
plot, and parallel with it stretch an
other. leaving a space OF two feet be-
tween them. Cut along both lines
with a sharp spade, and a turf path
clear to the alley is the result. Prob
ably the sod on this will not at first
look very tempting, but constant travel
over it, il not too frequent, will i'm
prove it so that in time 1t will afford
a smooth green walk. Now dig a
trench foot wide and foot deep
across the end OF the three foot space
between the fence and the path, plac-
ing the soil removed, somewhere con-
yenient for future use. Into this trench
throw the sod removed from the second
foot, taking care to invert 1t when do
ing so. and then add a thick layer OF
coarse manure, tramping it well down.

AS to the hve centre beds they

outside rows should be reserved for
beets, as they require thinning and

bed should also be put in beans, late
varieties being chosen that are suitable
for shelling, just as they reach their
full size. Yellow Swedish and Red
Flageolets are far the best for this
purpose. One outside row should be
sown to Chard, a delicious and pro-
lific vegetable much neglected in
this country, while the others will sup

With regard to culture, no matter
how strong the temptation may he, no
one should ever attempt to do any
thing in a garden when the foliage Is
wet with dew or rain, or until the soil
is sufficiently dry to crumble between
the fingers without adhering to them,
and if it can be avoided no foot should
ever press the cultivated ground. The
most etficacious tool in any garden is
a sharp and narrow rake, which should
be constantly run between the rows
whenever the ground is dry. Except
in very wet seasons this implement
when frequently used will suffice to
keep down all weeds between the rows,
which it also keeps the soil sufficient
ly pulyerized to act as a watering pot
