In order that we may realize more

gardens where the science OF plant
life vas learned In Austria, in
1869. a Law was passed providing for
gardens In connection With all rural
schools. Before the present dcplor-
able condition OF affairs in Europe
tho interest iu school gardening was
general. 1t is estimated that Aus
tria alone had cigh, thousand school
gardens. and iu France. practical
gardening was taught 90 twenty
eight hundred primary and element

enumerates the advantages OF the
school garden"
THE home garden develops indi-
yiduality, as the child may choose
the plants he wishes to grow, and
how he will arrange them. He en-
joys in every respect freedom which
is not possible in the school garden.
The home garden because II al
lows more freedom, tends to make
the interest in gardening greater and
more permanent. The child may
experiment, and study the nature and
requirements of each variety as he
could not do in the school garden.
The home garden develops In the
child a greater sense OF responsible
ty as the success of his garden de
pends almost wholly on his own re-
sources.
The home garden will be one OF
the greatest factors in making our
cities and villages beautiful and de-
sirable places to live in, as insight
ly places, rubbish pies. etc. will be
replaced by growing plants and flow
ers.
The home garden develops the
sense of ownership. and respect for
private property.
The home garden will very mater
tally help to reduce the high cos, OF
living by providing fresh tender
vegetables for the table during the
greater part of the year. to an eX-
tent that will be surprise to those
who will keep an account OF the
value OF all vegetables used"
Some cities are encouraging va
cant lot gardening to the extent OF
plOwing and preparing the ground
In the vacant lots at the expense OF
the city, on receiving assurance OF
schools or garden clubs that such
will be properly utilized.
School gardening In La Jun,a Is
undoubtedly movement that should
receive the encouragement OF all
good citizens. and one that should
do much toward making OF La Jun
Ia a better and fairier city.
