GARDEN PLOTS
DEMAND FALLS
BELOW NORMAL
Two Organizations Find
Damp Weather Acts as
Stopper on Enthusiasm.
STILL READY TO
/. SUPPLY OTHERS
Groundless Folks of CITY
Have Chance to Aid Ma
tons Food: Problem.

The cold wet weather of the pas,
two days has put temporary check
on requests for garden plots, according
TO statements from the Offices OF the
Votes for Women league and the AS
ISOLATED Charities. both of which are
conducting garden plot exchanges and
boosting the put, in garden" move
ment in Fargo, today.
But one request was received yes
terday, and none today. With the re-
turn of fair weather. however, boost
ers say. both interest in gardening and
the demand for plots will be revived
Approximately Atty families have been
supplied by both organizations to
date.
some little difficulty has been
experienced within the past week in
satisfying applicants for garden spots
as to location. The majority want
spaces within walking distance Of
their homes.
"our greatest need is for lots locat-
ed within the city limits" said an
officer Of the Votes for. Women league
today. "A large number Of people
who live in downtown fats do not
have the time TO walk to the edge of
the city to work on a garden, despite
their desire for q garden.
There are a number of lots within
walking distance, not being used, that
the LEAGUE Is trying to secure"
The size OF the plots being supplied
by both organizations varies from a
few feet square to a half acre.
That Fargo will have in a greater
number of gardens than ever before is
the belief OF ofIicers Of both organiza-
tons. Interest In gardening as a
means of combating the high cost OF
living, and providing against a short
age OF foodstuffs this fall was never
as intense as at this time. they say.
