Getting Soil Ready Vital
 In Gardens
1BY Associated -Pressl

Garden generals. like front-lfne generals. plan their summers cam paign to fit the terrain and the climate in which they are to battle
 In the 1943 Victory Garden front. map the ground that is available to you. Then carefully draw your plan, showing which way the rows will run, what eacn will contain. and about how much production can be expected.
 The ideal arangeent is to have a plot of land that slopes gently toward the south, the bet ter to catch the sunlight.
 The rows should run across the hillside. not up and down it. Other wise in heavy storms the soil may wash away.
 Avoid planting near trees and shrubbery Their long roots rob garden soil of moisture and plant food and their shade IS undesirable.
 The sail and early vegetables should be planted on the south side of the plot. Larger plants placed on the south cast shadows over smaller ones.
 Experts of the United States De- partment of Agriculture say the ideal size Victory Garden in cities is from 30x50 to 5Ox1OO feet. This. they say, will grow a good portion of the vegetables needed by the av- craze family.
 Plant in Sun
 Give your Victory Garden a spot in the sun but besides a good sun ny spot, these things are necessary for a successful garden:
 1. Fertile soil. Choose a place where the weeds grow abundantIy. If weeds won't grow. you'll have a hard time making vegetables grow.
 2. Access to water. If drought comes, be sure you can reach the garden with a hose or other source of irrigation water.
 Lime is added to acid soil. Sand may be mixed with soils that are too fine-grained.
 If possible blow up your ground.
 Soil is turned to give seeds al chance to make anchor in rich, DOT ous ground In blowing, the top soil is turned under Thus the richest soil is underneath.
 To reach it, the plants send down long, healthy roots. These will pick up more moisture in dry weather than short ones growing near the surface.
 The soil may be spaded or blow ed as soon as it is dry enough to work in early spring.
 Test it by squeezing a handful tightly If it sticks together, it's too wet. If it crumbles at the lightest pressure, it's in prime working con dition. All elods should be complete ly crushed to eliminate air pockets.
 After spading Or blowing. the soil should be raked immediately.
