PLENTY Of WORK
FOR THE GARDENER
Bugs, SIugs and Worms Keep
Vegetable Grower on Alert
as Summer Advances.

Gardeners, whether they are anna
tours or possess wider experience, Will
find that there remains plenty to do
in the garden II the vegetables that
were planted with such high hopes
and expectations are to produce the
crops they should.
AS the summer advances the
myriad bugs, worms and slugs that
lie in wait for tender. growing vege-
numerous and their attacks are in
creasingly serious in the. effect on
the growing things.
! Vigilance Is Necessary.
Constant and unremitting vigilance
Is necessary il the pests are to be
kept under control and the vegetables
are to have their proper chance to
mature. Some sort of spraying device
is just as necessary to the welfare
of a garden as are hoes and rakes:
and several kinds of insecticides must
be kept on hand and frequently ap-
piled.
Arsenate of lead. Paris green. Bor-
deaux mixture-these are three
guardsmen of the vegetable garden.
With them. used either singly or
in combinations such as Paris green
and lead arsenate, the gardener
can keep practically all Of the gar
den destroyers in check. With the
addition Of some form OF nicotine and
soap emulsion for use against green
and black aphts, due a little later,
the insecticide equipment is pretty
complete.
Keep Weeds Down.
Don't let the weeds get the jump on
the vegetables. Keep after them all
the while. AS soon as a weed shows
its head in a row, pull 1t up or cut
1t off. Don't wait until the baby
weed becomes full grown one, with
roots penetrating deep into the soil
and sucking up nourishment needed
for the food vegetables.
Use the hose, the scuff1e. the rake
or the wheel cultivator every day.
Keep the top soil loose and dusty, be-
cause dust mulch keeps the soil
moisture in, prevents evaporation.
permits aeration of the roots of the
vegetables, discoufages grubs and
worms, and also keeps the weeds in
check.
A properly cultivated garden will
produce so to rs per cent more and
better vegetables than one that is
allowed to go for weeks without at
tention. Further than that, a clean.
neat. well cultivated garden is a
thing Of beauty, in which the gar
dener takes proper pride. But who
ever saw gardener showing off a
garden overgrown with weeds?.

Help to Keep Well.
One of the safest rules for keeping
well is to eat variety of food. Veg
etables are a great help in giving
variety to your meals.
Eat vegetables every day: many are
mild laxitives and they are better than
medicine. They help keep you and
your family well.
Use many kinds and lots of them

They are appetizers. Their delicious

They furnish fuel and protein. Veg
etables, such as sweet potatoes, green
lima beans, green corn. white pota-
toes, green peas. onions. beets. car
rots and squash contain enough starch
and sugar to make them valuable as
fuel foods. Some of these are pro-
tein foods. too.
They help prevent constipation. The
woody part of vegetables are valua-
BILE to give bulk to the food. For
very small children it should be re-
moved by rubbing the cooked vege-
table through a sieve, but a grown
person of sound digestion needs some
of this woody portion. Don't cut out
all the hard part from asparagus and
such foods. The mild acid in such
vegetables as tomatoes has some lax

They furnish mineral matter. This
