GETTING READY TO PRODUCE
FOOD IN THE BACKYARD
IN 1918

Washington-How shall we get
ready for home gardening activities
In 1918 is a question now reaching
the United States Department of Agri-
culture from all sections. To these
questioners the department is giving
the following advice:
Determine the location and the area
to be planted to vegetables as soon as
practicable. Clear 1t of rubbish and
as material suitable for compost
heap Is available, start one. Arrange
If possible, for the necessary fertil-
izer for the seasons garden from To-
cal sources such as stables, streets, or
abattoirs. Add these materials to the
compost heap so as to insure as large
a supply as possible of suitable ma
terial with the smallest practicable
use of commercial fertilizers. This is
desirable to insure plant food and to
save expense. Commercial fertilizers
are scarce and high and in garden
work even when such materials are
abundant and relatively cheap they
can not entirely replace stable ma
nure and compost Each city or town
should be able to supply the major
part of the needs of its gardening
population IL the fertilizers produced
within its limits are husbanded for
their use.
Get Seeds Early
As soon as the spring catalogues
are available, select the list of seeds
needed to plant the area to be used
for gardening. In choosing the list
have in mind the selection of those
sorts which did best last season, those
which the family rellshed most, and
determine the quantity with care in
order that only the seed necessary to
meet your requirement be purchased
The supply of some of the important
varieties of garden seeds is limited
and in order that all may obtain the
quantity needed to meet their needs
every one should cooperate to make
the supply available produce a maxi.
mum crop.
Place your seed orders early,
Plan Your Garden In Advance
In planning the garden have due
regard to supplying the family with
fresh vegetables as we'll as those de.
sired for canning or drying, but re.
frain from entering the field of com.
mercial vegetable production unless
you are an experienced practical gar.
dener with suitable soil and location
and adequate capital to finance the
Operation.
Planning the garden on paper-that
is, drawing right plan to scale or
which are indicated the spaces to BIZ
devoted to early planted and later
crops, the best planting dates, etc.
is an interesting winter evening EN-.
ployment for the entire family.
See that garden tools are properly
protected and are ready for spring
use. Have fruit trees and small fruits
Ipruned and sprayed at the proper sea
sons.

Largest City and Import ant Military Position in Northern France in
 Hands of Allies

LONDON, Nov. 2.-The Canadians have captured Vaenciennes, the sec ond largest French city to be cap tured by Germans.
 The capture of the place was ac- compIished by the usual outflanking movement by which most of the oth- CT important towns in Northern France have been captured, eiimnat- ing the necessity of the Allied troops attacking strongly fortified places and the consequent loss in man-pow- CT.
 Valenciennes is in the heart of network of rail and water communi- cations and its capture is considered important by military critics.
