WEEDS: THE TRAMPS OF THE GARDEN

A Weed Is Plant Out Of Place, But 1.-THE Only Good
Weed Is a. Dead Weed"-Weeds Steal Food,
' Moisture, Air and Sunlight From the nd
- Useful Garden Crops

= This process of pulling. or other
wise destroying the weeds in the row
of seedlings is called wedding. 1t is
one of the most important garden
operations, especially in the spring,
when so many crops are getting
started. ~ q
To pull weeds intelligently we
should know them by sight and be
able to distinguish them from the
young seedlings of the crop plants.
So If one does not know Just how the
crop seedlings look be sure to- find
out before wedding begins. "
=: Weed seeds are easily distributed.
Wind and animals help this distribu-
ton. In general, weed seeds arezvery
hard to kill. Changes Of temperature
have little effect upon then. They
sprout readily in small amoF4
soil and will thrive even INDEX dis
advantageous conditions. =
. To assist in destroying the weeds
various small tools called hand weed
ers are used. They enable one to
stir the soil nearer the crop seedlings
than can, usually be done by hand. In
case the seedlings are to be thinned
to several inches apart these weed
ers can be used to dig out seedlings
and weeds together. |<"> e = = Z

A weed is a plant out OF place. A
carrot growing in row Of onions is
weed. 1t is out of place. t. 1t be.
longs in a row of carrots. A poppy
growing in a row Of carrots is "a
weed. 1t belongs in a bed Of pop
pies But most weeds are neither
good to. .eat, like the carrot, nor
beautiful to look upon. like the pop
ply. They are vagrant plants-the
tramps of the garden-ready at any
time to steal food and moisture, air
and sunlight from the. useful crops to
which the garden belongs,
In most gardens there are vast
numb ers Of weed seeds of many kinds
ready to sprout into life whenever
there is a chance: So when we plant
the garden to radishes or carrots or
lettuce or other crops and wait for
these seedlings to. appear the eager
weed seeds make the most of the OPP
portunity to- some up by the thous-
ands. Many of these young weeds
are sturdy plants, ready to grow so
rapidly that they will crowd out the
seedlings we wish to raise. Conse-
quently we must pull up the tramps,
roots and all, and cast them on the
ground to wither and die.
