top is pinched out when five or six
clusters of fruit have formed.
On your schedule for early April
paintings have some Black-eyed and
Crowder peas. Whatever other vege-
tables are available, several times a
week a dish of peas is in order. This
means at least three paintings should
be made during the season. I usually
make them early in April, the latter
half of May and late June or early
July.
For variety, an occasional mess Of
greens is needed during summer. New
Zealand spinach is one of the best of
summer greens. Plant 80 to so foot
row for an average size family. Plant
three to five seeds in hills two feet "a
part. Soak the seeds overnight in
warm water and they will come up
more quickly. This month is good
time to plant.
Some time during April, depending
on weather conditions, you should
plant six to ten hills each of Early
White Bush and Yellow Summer
Crookneck squash, covering each hill
with a hotkap. These little paper
covers will cause the seed to come up
several days earlier than they other
wise would, and also to be ready for
use considerably earlier. 1t pays to
use these Inexpensive covers in the
home garden for such crops as canta-
loupes, cucumbers, squash, watermel-
ons, or others planted in hills. Do not
plant seed earlier than you would if
they were not being used, but at the
usual time. They can be secured
from most seed stores.
Not until the middle OF latter part
of April should you plant pole snap
Worcester Democrat and the ledger-enterprise. (Pocomoke City, Md.) 1921-1953, 1936-04-03

beans, pole butter beans, bush butter
beans, cucumbers and okra. Early
April will do farther south, but above
the Cotton Belt early to middle OF
May will be soon enough. These will
not thrive in a cool soil and nothing
is to be gained by planting earlier.
Two other vegetables that should
rot be put in the open ground until
the weather actually becomes warm
are peppers and elephants. In fact,
the latter never will amount to any
thing if subjected to even ordinary
cool nights of early spring.
Late this month or early in May
you should make a second planting
Of beets. By early June the roots
from the first planting begin to get
stringy, hence a second planting about
this time.
You usually set onion and cab
bage plants during February or March
but if for any reason you were pre-
vented from doing so set them early
in April By fertilizing heavily, these
later-set plants will mature only
little later than the early-set ones.
You should make your last spring
planting of radishes late in February
or early in March. Late spring
paintings are not advisable except in
Upper South, as they get pithy when
warm weather arrives.
Where poultry manure is available
scatter a half bushel or three pecks
per 100 feet of row space on either
side of lettuce, cabbage, onions, OF
other early vegetables now growing
in the garden. Scatter on both sides
of the rows and cultivate it in. For
real quick results apply in a similar
manner one or two pounds per 100
feet of row space of some of the quick
ly available nitrogen fertilizers.
AS soon as picking Strawberries is
completed, the whole row should be
worked out if plants are to be carried
over for a crop next year. New
plants must be produced for the com
ing years crop and for these to be
properly developed, blowing down
most of the old row is necessary soon
after picking is finished. A leaflet

methods of doing this job may be had
from the Progressive Farmer for
three-cent stamp.
We need to plant vegetables at the
right time, but it never pays to get
in such big hurry as to plant before
the ground is thoroughly prepared.
Planting on poorly prepared ground
has resulted in more failures in the
garden than probably all other causes
combined. Don't make this mistake!
Worcester Democrat and the ledger-enterprise. (Pocomoke City, Md.) 1921-1953, 1936-04-03
A Busy Time
For Gardeners

AS soon after April 1 as weather
conditions permit you may make your
first planting of snapbeans and roast
ing ear corn. Each Is or 20 days
thereafter make another planting of
each until late July for corn and ear
~ September for beans. Only by
making such frequent paintings is it
possible to have a supply of these for
use from early summer until frost.
The tomato will stand cooler
weather than many seem to think.
While it does not pay to set them too
early, it always pays to take chance
on setting few plants early in April.
This is about as early as they should
be set here in the Mid-South, but of
course even earlier setting is advis-
able in the Lower South. Above the
cotton growing sections April Is to
early May is about as early as it is
safe to set them.
Stake and prune your first setting
of tomatoes, as this method gives
ripe fruit a little earlier than when
not pruned. Soon after the plants
are set and are we'll started to grow
