Few Tools Needed by
Real Home Gardener
E. E. Rice, Garden Supervisor.

Thrift gardens should be thrift gar
dens from start to finish, and the vege-
tables grown in them should not cost
as much as it would cost to buy them
on the market. Every item of expense
should be kept down. This is espe-
cially true in the purchase of tools,
according to United States Department
Of Agriculture specialists Some gar
deners have an idea that they must
have a large assortment of hoes and
rakes, wheel hoes, seed drills, spray
ing outfits and special equipment be-
fore they can begin to garden. But
the tools actually required in the cul-
tivation of a thrift garden are few and
simple. A spade or spading fork, a
steel rake and hoe, together with a
piece of string and two small wooden
stakes, are the chief essentials. There
are number of other tools, such as a
trowel, sprinkling can, wheel hoe, seed
drill and wheelbarrow that may often
be used to advantage, but they are not
absolutely necessary.
1t is important. however, that the
few essential tools be properly cared
for and used frequently. Every time
they are used they should be cleaned
and stored in a dry place Also, they
should be kept sharp so that the work
may be done easily and thoroughly.
good job of hoeing can not be done
with dull or rusty hoe.
