USEFUL HOME GARDENS.
Method of Laying One Out and Culti- j
vatinQ" It.
Many people residing lu rural communities
afe anxious to get information
whereby they can make the space
about their homes useful for gurden
purposes.
The one great secret lu being sue-1
cessful with the family garden is to ]
provilo an abundance of "plant food In |
a form readily available to tlifc growing
plants. Stable and barnyard manures
are the best ferfllhsers at all
times. Some of the commercial plant
foods are excellent in their place, especially
when it is desired to force some
of the-early varieties of vegetables, but
their usq requires tbat the soli be lu a
high state of fertility and that the gardener
have an expert kuowledge of
their ueeg and functions. i? I
Constant cultivation should be the
rule, for this will keep the soil in an j
ideal physical condition for the roots \
to grow in. besides keeping the weeds
in check. Cultivate early and persistently
and keep ahead of the weeds.
Allowing the'weed Seeds to germinate
and then quickly destroying fbem by
frequent cultivation early In thfe growing
season will save a large amount of i
work during the summer.
Eliminate all the old fashioned beds
and plant everything in long rows so
that most of the cultivation can be
done with a horse. There need not be
an unpleasant amount of hard band
work if properly worked with a horse
and cultivator. Provide plenty of room
at the ends to turn around with th<
horse while cultivating.
Do not plan a larger garden than
you can keep clean and well tilled. A j
small garden will supply an abundance j
of small vegetables for a large family.
After the soil has been well enriched
and well fitted we are ready to plant
If the plan has been well worked out
all that is necessary is to plant each
variety at the proper time in its rignt
place.
The family garden must be planned
to suit the needs of the family, and no
two families will agree as to the 1
amount and kinds of vegetables tbey |
will grow.
VALUE OF CLEANING UP.
What One Western City Accomplished I
by a Co-operative Movement.
During a "cleaning up day" held In I
a certain western city one-tenth of the !
entire popuiatlou gladly volunteered at
the set time, and more dirt was scraped
together th^jj 4,WO teams were able
te cart away. Men. women aud children
were among the workers.
From sunrise, when the bugle sounded
assembly, until nightfall the work

[From American City. New York.]
never baited for a moment. Every j
cnbic yard of dirt meant the riddance I
of a menace to health and comfort.
The city ordered also a thousand additional
waste cans for the sidewalks.
The spirit, the unity of action, wan
perhaps the greatest success of the
day. Such civic spirit canuot but command
success In the uplifting and con-1
stant progress of such a city or town.
Many towns and cities throughout
the United States are doing everything
possible to keep their streets neat and
attractive. In numerous communities

trade away from local dealers. It Indicates
