SMALL cHiLD's GARDEN.
The Main Thing 10. to Have Strong.
Hardy, Free Blooming Flowers.

Jessie Whitcomb in Mothers Magasine.)
Many mothers are now planning to
Mary, because this summer they will
be big enough to profit by It. Many
mothers are also ruefully remembering
the crash of hopes last Summer-9o far
as tho children's gardening was con-
cerned-and are wondering whether it
will be worth while to try It again.
They remember seeds dug up or
flower plants ruthlessly Jerked up and
weeds left standing. dried and parched
little beds, or tangles OF triumphant
iimson, dandelionS and knot grass. Or
perhaps it may recall anxious little
workers and sorry disappointment over
poor. spindly howerless plants. We
have had all sorts Of experiences In
cession Of summers had drilled into
me exactly what is what for q small
The main thing is to have a very
limited variety Of seeds and those of
the strong, hardy. free blooming sort.
A child Of 8, or yusrs can have
satisfactory garden OF three sorts OF
Of three plants and then weed out
everything else.
one summer I remember three par
ticularly successful and simple at
tempts. One boy planted his plot with
mixed zinnias, surrounded by ono row
Of radishes and one row Of lettuce.
The lettuce and raidshes occupied his
attention to begin with, and when he
had eaten them, his zinnias took the
whole space and blaomed gorgeously
until frost. The next boy did the same
thing, using peoples instead Of sinnias.
The Free Lance, bound to be different
as ever. hauled stones in his little cart
till he had fair sized heap. ana
planted q package Of mixed morning
elories in q row encircling the base:
Ali summer long his pink, blue and
purple morning glories were tho ad-
miration Of the family.
Children love flowers. but they do
not love disappointment, ana tho way
to mako contented little gardeners
even 6f children who perhaps have but
little affnity with the soil! to limit
and to have those varieties all bright,
free bloomerS. ssS
