Gardening on City Lots.
No. Is.

Back number OF years. ago Mayor
Pmsrse OF Detroit sprang into national
promiaence by advising the people Of
that city TO grow potatoes on vacant
lots. An unthinking public was in
clined to treat the proposition as a
joke. and the newspaper paragraphers
had a lot of fun at the expense Of "Po-
tato Patch Pingree." But Mayor Pin
gree had given birth to great idea,
one that could be put into orerction to-
day with. highly beneficial results.
An enormous amount of food could
be grown on the vacant los. and even
on the back lots, of every cit in the
land. The men who grew il would be
benefited. both physically and imam
cially.
A number of cities have ken up
gardening on vacant tots II: connection
with the work Of public schools. and
SO far-as the results are of record they
nowhere have been disappointing. The
children have grown vegetables for use
in their own homes and for sale, and
In doing 1t both their minds and their
bodies have been improved. 1t has
given them an appreciation Of nature
and an insight into natnre's workings
that never could have been learned
the dignity Of labor and especially the
dignity Of farming. and they are less
disposed to regard as 4 "rube' the man

and also vegetables the quality and
freshness of which will be a revela-
ton If his back yard is thirty to
forty feet deep and eighteen to twenty
feet wide he can come pretty near to
supplying his table with, several va
rieties of the best-liked vegetables.
Whatever else he grows he should try
tomatoes. for they do we'll under very
adverse conditions, and tomatoes ripen-
ed on the vine are superior to the
very best the market stalls afford. A
strip the depth of his lot and three
feet wide would accommodate dozen
plants, which can be purchased of any
cents a dozen. The dozen vines should
give the average family all the to-
matoes it wanted throughout the sea
son. with considerable surplus for
canning. Then, just before frost, there
would be a large quantity of green
tomatoes to pick for preserving.
Two rows of snap" beans thirty or
forty feet long also would supply
family. Several varieties. of which
the stringless green-pod probably is
the best, will bear all season long and
still will be in blossom when frost
comes. A couple of rows of lima beans
also would be profitable. South of the
northern Pennsylvania line, in a ia
vorable season, they will bear two
crops. 1t would pay to plant as many
rows of peas as there was room for
because their season is finished early
enough SO that the ground could be
used for some second crop. The cata-
logue of any seed house viii give the
necessary Information as to varieties
and the time and manner Of planting.
Just what to grow is a question each
gardener would have to decide for
himself, hut cucumbers and radishes
are two highly desirable choices be-
cause Of their superiority when fresh.
A spade, hoe and rake are all
the tools absolutely necessary for such
a garden. and the only really hard
work connected with it would be the
spading up of the ground in the spring.
The cost, aside from fertilizer, ought
not to be more than So or So. The use
of fertilizer would have to be deter
mined by the condition of the soil, but
any soil would be benefited by load
of good stable manure or street sweep
ings.
The city man who will try gar
dening on his back lot not only Will
have cheaper and fresher vegetab ables
for his table, but he win have lot
keener appetite when he sits down
