On Garden Planting
? . - ' * ? ?
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.
