To the student Of history the one

DON'T LET YOUR
 GARDEN PRODUCTS. CROW TOO CLOSE
Crowding of Vegetables Stunts Growth and Re-
 tards Progress

Washington, D. C., June 11.-Do
 not allow garden vegetables to crowd each other in drills or rows. This is bit of timely cultural advice offered to home gardeners by specialists of the United States Department of Az riculture. Unless each plant has ade-
 quate room for development and a
 chance to receive all the sunlight. air, moisture and plant food which it needs, the specialists point out, it will be stunted and it's contribution to the food supply of the. family
 therefore will be low in quantity and
 inferior in qaa1ity.
 It is well enough to aplant seed more thickly than the. plants should grow. to allow for faulty germination and losses it is explained, but the
 mistake of allowing the crops to grow as thickly as they come up must not
 be made. A good time to thin out surplus plants is a few weeks after the plants have come up, when they have become large 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 spaces which may
 have occurred in the drills. Lettuce also may be permitted to grow fairly large before thinning, and the sur plus plants eaten. The plants should be from 2 to 8 inches apart at the first thinning, and before the plants crowd a second thinning should be made which will leave the plants from to 8 inches apart. The plants removed at the second thinning should be gradually. thinned to or inches apart, the plants pulled be- ing used for greens. For this pur- pose the whole plant is used. Young turnips may be used in the same way Radishes usually are not thinned until they are large enough to be eat en. Radish tops also may be cooked as greens or, if especially tender may be used in salads. If radishes have
 been planted to mark drills of pars- nips. carrots or other slow-growing vegetables, they should be removed before they crowd the permanent oc- cupants 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 3 to 6 inches apart If they are to be harvested while fair ly small they may stand somewhat closer.
 Thin hills of muskmelons and cu-. cumbers to 8, or at the most plants. Only or pole beans should be left to each hill.
 Tn 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 the ground surface about the plants to be thinned is hard. wet it thor oughly long enough before operations are begun to allow the moisture t. soak to the ends of the roots
