TAKE \ CHANCE on
EARLY PLANTING


Irish potatoes easily injure by
freezing, but they require about q
month to come up and may be plant
ed at about the same time as lettuce
and radishes. 1t pays to take a
chance on early planting of certain
of the more hardly garden vegetables.
II they are killed or severly injured
they may be replanted. A good
method is to make about three plant
ings at intervals of two weeks, and
IL the first planting is killed the lat
or ones take its place; if not killed,
early vegetables will be produced and
the second and third paintings pro-
vide o continuous supply.
