Gardens can be planted now in al most every section of the State with out fear of late frost damage, says L. P. Watson, Extension horticultur ist of State College. "The only dan ger now," he stated, "would be to some of the tender plants such as beans, cucumbers, tomatoes, corn and sweet potatoes, in the mountain sec tion. These may be planted safely in the west after May 1 to 15." Watson said there is, therefore, little excuse for any farm family failing to plant a garden now. It is almost imperative that we grow something to eat this year to offset an inevitable decline in income from tobacco," he declared. "The vegetable garden will be worth far more to the farm family than the acre of tobacco given up in the control program. The vegetables which can be grown on a acre of garden land would cost the housewife $450 if bought at retail prices. This compares with the average acre value of tobacco of about $135, and an acre value for cotton of $35, and corn $20. "We certainly don't want a re occurance of the situation of last summer, when vegetable trucks tour-1 ed the farm areas of some Eastern ? ? ? m _ ?_ I Carolina counties ana sola . iresn vegetables to tobacco farmers," the specialist continued. "It takes 3 acres of tobacco, 12 acres of'cotton, or 22% acres of corn to buy the vegetables that a one-acre garden will produce." Watson pointed out that the Agri cultural Conservation Program is offering this year a payment of $1.50 for each home garden of at least one-tenth acre for each mem ber of the farm family. .Details of this AAA practice, and other valua ble information on home gardens, are contained in Extension Folder No. 45, which is free upon request to the Agricultural Editor at State College, Raleigh.
