is not so far gone that he is going
to start planting his spring crop
HOW nor is he advising others to do
SO but he is calling attention to the
citizens Of Chickasha that they
should be thinking and preparing
for back yard garden this year.
So far as the mayor has any in
fluence garden will be planted in
every vacant spot in the city and
every bit of parking that can be
used for garden purposes except that
10 corn or cane or like articles will
be allowed to be planted in the park
ings as this is liable to cause auto
mobile accidents because of an ina
bility to see cars coming on other
streets.
Plans are now on foot to have
those who own vacant lots to loan
the use of them to the poor of the
city to plant in garden products so
that they will have enough to carry
them over the summer.
1t is estimated that If every va.
cant piece of ground in the city were
planted to gardens that could be
utilized, at least 100000 worth of
garden products could be raised in
this city Those who have had ex
