IWPPSSP^PPBW1^ THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, FRIDAY, MARCH 25,1921 Edited by David H. Stevenson. . Director National Home Gardeners' Editor's Note: This column Is to be conducted continuously during* the gar- den In* season as an aid to amateur gardeners. The "hints" and careful In* structlons to be found In these articles are based upon expert Investigation of particular needs of the home gard- ener. If you have a garden you will want to be a constant reader of the "Hints for the Garden" column. Refer It to your neighbor gardener. SPRING IS HERE A new garden season hat begun. With the bursting of the buds, the singing of the first robins, and the springing up of. the tender green shoots of the grass and flowers, our thoughts turn to gardening. To the thousands that know the joy that comes from the early preparation and planting in the spring, it is not neces- sary to point out that now is the time to figure out all the plantings that are to be made this season in order to enjoy to the fullest extent a lux- uriant front lawn, a continuous bloom of flowers, and abundant crops from the vegetable garden. Don't let lack of experience keep you from having a garden, or from putting in a few shrubs, some curr- ants, gooseberries and raspberries, and possibly a fruit tree. Some flow- ers, and a climbing vine for your porch would do much toward making your home distinctive and beautiful. The joy that you will get in doing this cannot be measured in dollars and cents. The cost of making this a reality is very small. If you don't know the kinds of shrubs and flow- ers that will do best for you, write to us and we will advise you. Begin now to plan for good crops of delici- __ous fresh green vegetables, and fruits from your own garden. â€"7 Proper equipment and information makes garden work a pleasure and results in success. How much ground have you that you can-put to garden? Does it need any fertilizer? What kind^does it need? What kinds of vegetables are you fond of, and.how much do you need for you family? These are a few of the questions that every successful home gardener must answer. To answer" them properly it imecessary to form a definite plaiv The importance of getting up a pjan cannot be overemphasized. Every- one has experienced the disappoint- ment of having too much corn one month and not any the next, or of having too much spinach and not enough green beans. You can cor- rect this, making your garden yield just about the amounts you need, by making a plan and keeping record. This will help you the next season to increase here and decrease there ac- cording to your own experience, When the ground is ready for work there is not a minute to lose in plant- ing everything just where it belongs. A careful plan drawn to scale will help you in saving money, time, labor and space. It will provide for a steady supply of green vegetables throughout the season. As' you are limited for space, you can make the ""most of wbat you have by planting two or more different kinds of seeds together in the same row, mixing the seed before planting. The radishes will be ready to eat in a month after planting and will be out of the way long before the parsnips need tb space. You can get two crops from your ground by planting leaf lettuce early and immediately after it is â€"harvested, spade-up- the row~and~set out tomato plants. ~~€k>od piants~are~now- beingâ€" grown in many sunny kitchen windows. If you have the space for it, the hotbed is the best place to grow your plants for setting out. The construction of the hotbed for the home garden will be taken up m the next article.
