RADISHEs PROTECT cHARD
Home Gardeners Urged to Try Swiss
Vegetable In Place Of Spinach.

Home gardeners wishing a hardy
green which will be productive
throughout the season are urged to
plant Swiss chard. which Is even more
tasty than spinach. This green is
something new. and may be trimmed
and eaten as often al desired. In
trimming. however, be careful not to
cut the main stalk OF the le, -es.
The only thing that can possibly do
this plant any harm Is an attac'; of
plant lice. This may be easily ward
ed on by plantin.. q circle OF -adishes
about the plot as a decoy. The in
sects are fond of radish tops. and will
attack them in preference to the
