Quoting this survey work were ap
pointed by the mayor and they are
now Systematically arranging to ma
nure, pillow, and assign these lots to
persons desiring ground for gardens
next year.
Here is what one Iowa city il doing
to get ready for next years garden
campaign.
FIRST. survey of the city was
made and rs acres of space suitable
for gardens was located inside the
city limits in addition to what was put
in gardens last spring.
! SECOND. Three hundred tons of
manure which could be used for fer
tilizer were located within the city
limits
THIRD An inspection of the treas
urer's books showed that $1,000 in
cash were paid out last year to needy
people.
FOURTH. Ninety per cent of the
potatoes consumed last year were
shipped in from outside points.
What did the city do about It?
Well, the city council and conner
cial club met and appointed commit
tees in every voting precinct. These
committees will arrange for teams,
wagons, and plows, and will organize
the work so that 1t can be done most
efficiently and economically.
The mayor says the city will use
some of the city money to employ
teams and wagons and plows, If neces-
sary.
1t is further planned that those who
receive support from the city must
take care of a garden according to in
structions-that Is, provided they are
able to work.
Those who wish to prepare them
selves to make success Of home veg

Take thought of the spring garden
now
Notwithstanding the large produc
ton of vegetables this year and the
great volume put into cans and jars
for winter use, there is nothing to in
dictate that there will not be equal
need for production and conservation
in 1918, says the United States De-
partment of Agriculture.
Many gardens failed this year be
cause of poor soil or poor prepare
ton or both.
This is the time in many sections
to break and to fertilize. Then in the
spring it will be easier to make the
seed bed and the soil will contain
plant food.
For the average householder it will
be sufficient to prepare ground
enough to produce the home supply
for eating in the fresh state and for
canning, drying or brining for use
during the following winter. Produc-
ing vegetables for market should not
be undertaken without full know
ledge of horticulture and sufficient
capital and equipment
Marshalltown, Iowa, city of go
