Thousands upon thousands OF nome
gardens were al important facto- last
year in supplying food, and il is inn
portant that many more thousands OF
gardens be planted in 1920. With
food prices still soaring, II behooves
every householder to plant a garden
and grow his own supply OF vege-
tables. The job OF producing food for
the Nation has been we'll taken care
Of by farmers, but the spare hours of
industrial workers are now needed to
supplement the efforts Of the farmers,
say specialists of the United States
Department of Agriculture. The man
or woman who works in the store,
Office, or factory can not be of much
direct assistance to the farmer, but
can at least spend one or two hours
everp day in the cultivation OF vege-
table garden in backyard or a vacant
lot
Home gardens are especially needed
in densely populated sections, where
the people are largely dependent upon
transportation facilities for bringing
their food to them. Every foot of suit
able land in and around large cities
should be made to produce its quota
the coming season.

Time to Plan the Garden.

During January, while the Southern
gardner is planting peas. onions, and
potatoes, the Middle States gardner is
looking over seed catalogs, and the
New England and Minnesota gar
Diners have just settled down for a
hard winter. 1t is just as important
that the New England gardner be
making his plans during January as
that the southern gardner be plant
ing his peas, onions, and potatoes.
Three months may constitute the
growing season in certain parts of the
extreme northern United States. and
it is important that the northern gar
dner have all his plans made and be
ready to make the most of the time
at his disposal.
Looking back over last seasons
garden experience, anybody can see
just where improvements could have
been made in his methods. Most home
gardeners did not have definite gar
den plan to begin with and simply
rambled along through the summer,
doing things as they called for at
tention.
This season there should be plan

You may depart more or less from
this plan, but you should start right
anyway. The winter is the proper time
