TO START GARDENING EARLY
And Gives You Some Suggestions for That Truck Patch hc
VIII Prorde You With Vegetables This Coming Summer

Plan your plot on paper and for uni q

some twine when laying out the ground,
| SO that the rows won't look like dog :

and radishes--for it is possible to raise
these small and succulcnt dainties in n
small garden. Two rows planted in the

April will, IL spring Is at all favorable
mean radishes and peas for the table
in the last Of May or first part Of
June.
Just as soon as you can work part Of
your garden, do so; turn and dig and
then rake the soil fine. Prepare two
rows in the sunniCst part of the garden,
the full length of the plot. and have
the first row about ten inches from the
fence and the second row about eight
inches from the first row--plant with
early peas.
How 60 Plant
Soak three cups of peas in warm
water overnight and then plant the peas
two and one half inches deep. and fill or
form the soil into n long low hill--uSe
three cups of peas to two rows and SOW
each row double Tnp the soil lightly
to make it firm after planting.
From now on. the balance OF the
garden may quickly be put into shape.
Arrange the next two rows about
eight inches apart and plant hccts, rad
