HoME.GARDEN CAMPAIGN.
The Gardens Should Be Tended by Fam,
lily Help.

a productive home garden ON every
farm and "A back yard garden for every
village, town and city home" Is the slo-
gan of the United States department OF
agriculture. Many forces and different
organizations are helping in the garden
campaign, but the United States depart
ment OF agriculture and the agricultural
colleges are carrying the biggest end OF
the work of organization and instruct ion.
There are approximately 100000 rural
families in the United States, and ap-
proNimately 1900, 900 additional families
IN cities and towns up to 25000 popula
ton. In the entire United States there
are about 2l,000,0O0 families, but por.
ton of these in the large, congested cen
tiers of the population cannot have gar
dens. A home garden for every possible
family is the aim This work il well un-
der way, already having been organized
in January for this years campaign of
food production.
Caution.
The department is emphasizing Geo
nomic production of food through these
gardens and, therefore, points out the
following important cautions:
Ia No home garden should be raised
except by labor of the family for the
use of the family; in other words,
home garden with hired labor is not ad
Nocated. The hired labor should be re
leased to engage in general farming TO
add to the food stores of the nation.
tbl Garden seed especially of certain |
important standard crops, such as beans |
and peas, must be conserved and not |
wasted.
(cl Good soil, sunlight, and air are |
necessary for good gardens It is a waste |
of seed and labor to plant on land not |
suited or where shaded large part of |
the day.
Id In small back yard gardens, plant
only those crops which produce large /
quantities on limited area, such as string |
beans, tomatoes, lima beans, beets, or on.

such crops require more space than is
needed for the other crops.
