The War Garden.

/ Hazel ITawn, Chairman Ayr. Com.
/ Grow garden
/ If you haven't the land or time for
big garden, grow little one.
The time for talking about growing
a garden has passed. Planting time
is here. Plant the things the family
I like, and the things of the sort, that
all which cannot be eaten can be
canned.
Keep this in mind: An idle plot of
land this year will be reflection on
its owner Ii the owner cannot use it
for garden himself, let him rent, or
lend it to someone who will. Make
every square foot of earth do its duty
toward winning the war.
Your family can also serve the ma
ton by growing much of the food it
Will need next fall and winter.
Remember it requires more than a
talk and few five cent packages of
garden seeds to make a profitable
garden. Don't forget that the hoe in
the backyard is mighty good back
ing for the flag on the front porch
Seed sowing usually proves stumb-
ling block to the beginner in garden
ing. lie gets along very nicely after
the plants are up, but the trouble lies
in getting them started.
For best results the soil must be
mellow, moist and fine, and free from
Jumps. If the surface has dried since
blowing or spdding and is lumpy, it
Will pay to turn over two or three
inches of the surface soil with a spad-
ing fork so as TO have moist and mel
low beds for seeds, then rake and rake
again until the surface soil, for the
depth of at least two inches, is fine.
1t is very important that the soil be
in the best possible condition before
seed and plants are put in. 10 amount
of after cultivation will make up for
the careless work in the first prepar-
alton of the garden.
The rows should be straight, not
alone for the sake of the appearance
but for convenience in cultiyating. In
small gardens the garden line is most
practical. Hemp rope, of clothesline
size, is excellent. Use strong stakes
that can be driven with the back of
the spade. With the line drawn make
a turrow deep or shallow according to
size of seeds using pointed stick or
end of hoe handle.
% SOW SeeuS Dy mana evenly Is an
art. that can be acquired only by con-
siderable practice. If, in the beginning
the seeds are poured from packets in
to a cup. both temper and seeds may
be conserved. The cup is not apt to
blow away and spill the seeds.
Grasp pinch of seeds between the
thumb and forefinger and scatter
with Il rolling motion. That's about
all that can be set down in print about
it, the rest must be learned by exper-
fence.
1t is better to use too much seed.
than two little for the following rea-
sons First, because not all of the
seeds will terminate, and as all the
poor seeds may fall in one place. We
must allow enough to insure a good
stand; Second, conditions in the gar
Gen are never perfect Tor termination
and growth, aud many of the plants
may perish before reaching daylight.
Third, see IS must be covered with
earth, which is dead @eight that
must be fitted by the plantlets. We
must theI efore plant seeds enough to
afford lifting power to break the sur
face crust.
