PLANT THINNING
Is IMPORTANT
Better Vegetables Obtained if
Plots Are Kept Sys-
tematically

Washington, D. c.. June 1S.-Do
not allow garden vegetables to crowd
each other in drills or rows. This is
bit of timely cultural advice offer
ed to home gardeners by specialists
OF the United States Department of
Agriculture. Unless each plant has
adequate room for development and
a chance to receive all the sunlight,
air, moisture and plant food which
it needs, the specialists point out, 1t
will be stunted and its contribution
to the food supply of the family
therefore will be low in quantity and
inferior in quality.
1t is we'll enough to plant seed
more thickly than the plants should
grow. to allow for faulty germina-
ton and losses. but the mistake of
allowing the crops to grow as thick
ly as they come up must not be
made. A good time to thin out sur
plus plants is few weeks after the
plans have come up, when they have
become lhrge enough to show which
are most thrifty, and before they
have begun to crowd seriously.
Wherever possible. the thriftiest
plants should be left.
In thinning lettuce and beets, some
of the best rooted plants may be set

out to fill up any space which may
have occurred in the drills. Lettuce
also may be permitted to grow fair
ly large before thinning, and the
surplus plants eaten. The plants
should be from two to three inches
apart at the first thinning, and be-
fore the plants crowd a second thin
ming shouId be made which will
leave the plants from six to eight
inches apart. The plants removed at
the second thinning should be large
enough for table use. Garden beets
should be gradually thinned to six
or eight inches apart, the plants
pulled being used for green's. For
this purpose the whole plant is used.
Young turnips may be used in the
same way.
Radishes usually are not thinned
until they ure large enough to be
eaten. Radish tops also may be cook
ed as greens or. If especially tender,
may be used in salads. If radishes
have been planted to mark drills of
parsnips, carrots or other slow
growing vegetables, they should be
removed before they crowd the per-
manent occupants of the drills.
Onions should be thinned before
they reach a quarter-inch in diam
eter, and should be left about three
inches apart.
Turnips. carrots, parsnips and
beets usually are left three to six
inches apart. If they are to be har-
vested while fairly small they may
stand somewhat closer.
Thin hills of muskmelons and Gu
cumbers to three, or at the most five
plants. Only two or three pole beans
should be left to each hill.
In all thinning operations choose,
if possible, a time when the ground
is mellow so that little damage will
be done to the plants that remain. If
