SUCCESS WITH THE
BACK YARD GARDEN

Many back yard gardens failed
last spring and summer because they
were planted under conditions that
made success impossible, even with
the best cultural methods. 1t Is a
waste Of time and energy. which
might we'll be spent in some more
fruitful, endeavor. to try to grow gar
den plants unless there is fair
chance to succeed. The following
suggestions for gardening by Geo. L.
Tiebout, horticulturist. Extension Di-
vision, u. S. u, are timely:
1. The soil in the back yard should
be workable. One filled with cinders.
coal ashes, brick bats. ETC., should
not be planted.
2. The drainage must be good. II
water does not run of the yard read
fly during heavy rain, or standing
water can not be removed from IL
easily through surface drainage, 1t Is
rot suitable for a garden.
3. When the spot for the proposed
garden does not receive sunlight fer
a fair portion of the day, 1t Is use
less to attempt to grow vegetables.
4. Where chickens. ducks, or other
fowls are kept in no place for gar
den unless one or the other is well
fenced.
When the gardens can be worked
by members Of the household during
their recreation period or with lit
tie extra effort above their normal oc.
equations, no better outlet for patriot
ic and economic service for every
member of the family can be found
Children will take great deal of in
terest IL portion of the garden Il
allotted to them and each one is giver
his or her own lot to work. Theil
products may be purchased by tn,
parents and the proceeds used b!
the children to purchase Thrift

CARELESS USE OF
SUGAR CAUSES WASTE

Overwhelming coffee, tea, and
other table beverages is common
habit and means needless waste of
sugar. Often much Of the sugar is
not dissolved and remains in the bot
tom If the cup to be thrown away.
Thousands of people waste sugar in
this thoughtless manner every day. In
the aggregate it Is large amount
and should be eliminated. Try cutting
your allowance to one teaspoonful or
one average cube of sugar to the cup.
This amount, if entirely dissolved,
will satisfy most tastes.-L s. Z,

GOOD fIiNTING SEED
axe VERY SCARCE
HIGH PRICES AND INFERIOR
SEED ARE THE RESULTS OF
WAR CONDITIONS.
sEro SHOULD BE TESTED
in,nortant To Know the Germinative
Value and Purity Content OF
All Seed.

We are just beginning to realize
that there is a great scarcity OF gooa
planting seeds. Formerly much Of our
forage crop and garden seeds were
obtained abroad. War conditions now
prevent this importation; our own
seed farms are not able to meet the
present demand, consequently high
price and often time inferior seeds ID
the result.
Home grown seeds save expense OF
transportation, allowing much needed
labor and time, and space required In
I. .nsit, for other purposes. In many
cases plants from home grown SEED
show less susceptibility to plant dis
eases than do foreign grown seeo-
They are at hand when needed.
The value of a high percentage In
seed can not be over estimated. Low
percentage of termination not only
means there are a few seeds which
terminate, but that the vitality OF
that new plant starting out to grow Is
very low; it. may not have enough
stored energy to permit to competing
with other plants. and 1t may soon
succumb. Reports Of high percentage
Of garmination not only mean that
great numl ers of seeds are viable.
but that the chances OF getting
root-hold and in competing with other
plants Is therefore greater. A low
percentage and low or weak vitality
of sprouted seeds, and high percen-
tage andSstrong vitality, go together.
Vigor in seeds is one Of the greatest
assets to insure a strong plant.
A knowledge of the purity content
on agricultural seed is essential In or
der to save land from being wasted
by planting it to weed seed and to
save the time ard labor necessary 20
extermiIate the weeds. Certain
weeds produce many seeds. many
more than most agricultural plants.
Alfalfa and clover produce on the
average approximately $50 SEEDS to
the plant. The seed production per
plant of some of the common weeds
found In Louisiana are as follows:
