LEARN TO DEFEND GARDEN
Interest and Willingness Not Sufficient
to Make UP for Lack of Prac-
teal knowledge.

There is, perhaps, love for the soil,
latent or rudimentary, in most Of us
an agricultural instinct that has come
down to us through the generations
since the first gardener. 1t is n taste
easily developed. Soon comes a liking
for the smell of the earth upturned
by the pillow, an interest in watching
the breaking Of the plants through
their covering and in noting the varied
characteristics. But skill does not al
ways equal the interest and there must
he intelligence and skill If the garden
is to be a success. The habits of each
variety of plant, its special needs, the
nature of it's insect enemies and the
means of circumventing them, al Gan
be learned by experience, but it is bet
ter not to wait for this, since discOur-
agement may intervene. 1t Is wise to
take the instruction that experts can
give and it was happy thought on the
part of the Gardeners association to
plan for this. Lectures on the sub
ieet should be well attended and pro-
ductive Of good results.-Indianapolis
