THE city or village gardener has
L little or no choice as TO the char
acter Of soil or It's location It Is a
question with him of taking the
available land and doing the best he
can with It. The land at his disposal
often Is shaded during a portion OF the
day, and the soil frequently consists
Of hard CLAW refuse accumulated from
building operations. or materials that
have been dumped upon the land 1t
IS possible, however. to grow many
OF the garden vegetables under ad-
verse conditions. Results obtained BY
many city gardeners during the past
Two years are considered truly re-
markable by specialists Of the United
states department Of agriculture.
In casting about for a location for
the garden, the back yard or home
plot should be given first considera-
ton, the specialists say. As a general
rule. a location near the house Is most
desirable In the first place, II the
garden is near, it can be worked dur
ing short periods Of available time;
then, IL is more convenient for gather
ing the vegetables as they are want
ed for use; and finally the garden can
be better protected from molestation-
Vacant Lots often Good.
II the back yard or other ground
near the dwelling Is too small. IS
shaded during a considerable portion
of the day. or II the soil Is OF such a
character that vegetables can not be
grown upon it. the use Of a vacant
lot in the neighborhood is recon-
mended- There is a decided advan-
tage in working upon ones own land.
