THE HOME HERB GARDEN

Back in Colonial times the herb
garden was an important part of
every home planting. Woven into
the folklore of early settlers in
America are many legends about
the various herbs.
When we moved over into the
more materialistic age of the
present century, interest in grow
ing herbs seemed to wane.
One individual l know, who is
planning a rather elaborate herb
garden for some time in the flu
ture, began this year to plant Ell
Their from seed or from cuttings,
large number of herbs of which
he had heard. These are planted
in small plots in part of the
vegetable garden. He is studying
their growth habits in that par
ticular locality, so that the final
plan may be more intelligently
worked out. This also I gives
him the opportunity of saving seed
and making cuttings from this
start in small way. 1t certainly
any is said to have known over
800 plants to which he ascribed
curative properties as early as 400
3. C. These were added to and
held in high repute by doctors.
Many of these early drug plants
are still used as the source of Ger
tain remedies, with much refine
ment of the products. The chem
istry of drugs has come a long
way since and many drugs are
now made alphabetically.
Certain herbs give off pleasing
odors, especially when leaves and
flowers are crushed. The clean
crisp, spicy odors are retained for
a long time and our grandmothers
used them for making sachet bags
makes fascinating hobby.
The botanist groups all plants
under three general headings. That
is, herbs, shrubs and trees. The
shrubs and trees are woody plants
of large stature, while the herbs
are not only smaller but are not
woody in the sense of trees and
shrubs. This definition does not
fit all the plants we usually con-
slider in this group. We have ac-
customed ourselves to using the
term herb as that of a fragrant
plant having medicinal or culinary
use.
Many plants have been used in
medicine from very early times.

English and German cooks use
many herbs. And now, American
housewives are making more gen
eral use Of herbs than formerly.
Many are prepared and available
at grocery stores.
Since it takes so little of them
to make n big difference, on ac-
count of their pungency, many of
the rarer ones are not grown COM
mercially. But there is no limit
to those we may grow at home.
Next week this column will give
specific directions for producing

airy herbs which may be easily
grown for home use.
