The Victory Garden
PLANT AT RIGHT DEPTH.


You have heard and read much of
the American depth bombs which
did so much damage in hunting sub
marines Similarly the gardener must
know at what depth 10 plant his seeds
in order that his plants will grow
best. says today's bulletin from the
national var garden commission. Any
reader OF this paper can have 4 free
garden book by writing 10 the com
mission in Washington. enclosing a
two cent stand for postage.
There IS an old rule 10 plant a seed
at q depth five times its thickness, but
this rule does not hold good for all
seeds. The kind Of soil makes a lot Of
difference too. In a fine sandy soil
the seeds should be planted deeper
than in a heavy clay, and in a dry
soil deeper than in moist soil Try 10
strike a happy medium Have the
soil worked into a fine seed bed and
follow these directions for the ordi-
nary soils:
Plant these seeds one inch deep:
String beans. lima beans. beets, sweet
corn cucumbers, melons, squash
pumpkin, onion sets, beets, okra and
spinach. Plant these half inch deem
snip. radish satisfy and turnip. Plant
irish potatoes and peas TO ( inches
deep and parsley one-eighth inch deep.
II you make an outdoor seed bed for
tomatoes, cabbage. cauliflower, col
lard. celery or eggplant do not cover
the seeds more than half an inch.
II the soil is mellow. firm II along
the rows before PLANTING the seeds
and then press the earth down with q
hoe over the seeds This puts them
in good contact with the earth so
they viii absorb moisture and grow.
In planting small seeds It is a good
plan 10 sprinkle a few radish seeds
IN the row. These win sprout first
and mark the row for cultivating or
hOeing- II the ground is packed by
beating rains the sprouting radish
seeds viii break through and thus
help the little seeds through the
ground as they sprout- When the
ground becomes packed OF baked over
small seeds break up the surface
carefully with a garden rake.
