VARIETY OF FOOD ESSENTIAL
Hens viii Not Thrive and Lay Well
Unless Furnished With Differ

Hens, to thrive and lay well, must
have variety of food, and they must
have it clean and in a sanitary condi-
ton. The idea Of shutting poultry up
IN small quarters and scattering the
feed around in dirty places, then ex-

Turkeys on most farms are over

feed very light grain at the start and
give all the milk that the young poults

Southern gardens begin TO look
seedy about June 10, gardens In the
Middle states section are In the height
Of their glory, and the New England
gardens are just getting Wen started.
1t seems TO be a foregone conclusion
on the part Of most persons through
out the Southern states that southern
gardens can be grown only in the
spring and in the fall. with few
chance hardy crops during the winter.
The farmer of the middle section
plants his spring garden, then gets
busy with farm crops, and very little
further attention is given the garden
unless the work is done by the wom-
IN. In the New England states and parts
Of the Northwest where the grow
ing season Is quite short only one crop
OF most vegetables can be grown. In
the middle section, however. two
ereps can often be grown on the same
land, and more Important still, a con-
tlsuous supply Of peas, beans, sweet
corn, and a number Of other yegeia-
bles can be had by making successive

duce more than any other similar area.
To get maximum production, however,
It is necessary TO keep the land busy
all the time. This can be done two
ways; first by companion cropping,
and, second, by following one crop
with another or successive planting.
There are a number of crops that
lend themselves to companion crop
ping. For example, where onion sets
are planted in rows, say IS inches be-
tween the rows, row of radishes,
spinach. or lettuce can be drilled be-
tween the rows of onions and be OF
the ground before the onions need the
space. Spinach, radishes, early beets,
or turnips can be planted between car
rots, parsnips, and satisfy. A crop Of
snap beans can frequently be grown
between the rows of tomatoes. Radish
seeds may often be planted alongside
row of peas. the radishes being
pulled and out of the way before the
peas begin to climb the trellis or
brush provided for their support or
to spread over the ground. A little
later in the season sweet corn or late
cabbage can be planted between the
rows of early Irish potatoes and make

Irish potatoes are dug.
In the middle section, early peas
may be followed by late cabbage late
potatoes, late snap beans. beets. or

Plan Fall Gardens.
Fall gardens should in no case be
overlooked, especially from the Middle
stntes southwark. Paintings of prac-
tically all the early spring vegetables
may be made from July to September,
according TO locality, and be brought
TO maturity before early autumn
frosts, By proper attention to the gar
den, fresh vegetables may be had
through a period of about 10 months
Of the year in the extreme south and
for about { months in the middle sec
ton. The season for the New Eng
land and northwestern sections is
necessarily much more limited, but
even here the efficiency of garden
can be greatly increased by careful
study and attention to the matter of
companion cropping and successive
paintings of certain vegetables.
