Home Agent) Now is the time to carry out the gardening plans made earlier In the year. Have you planned to try a new vegetable this year? It's not too late to plant an asparagus bed. Aspara gus is an expensive delicacy that can be easily grown throughout our state. Cover the roots with about two inches of soil and then grad ually (ill this furrow as the plant begins growth. Asparagus re sponds to soils high in organic matter, thus mixing manure, saw dust, or compost with the soil be fore planting is a good idea. A straw mulch will keep the weeds and grass down throughout the summer." Do you buy your tomato and pepper plants? Recent reports in dicate that diseases have wiped out up to 90 percent of the pepper and tomato crops in parts of Florida. This means that plants coming from these areas this year will be more dangerous than ever. It would be wise to ask where the plants were grown before buying, and choose plants Brown elsewhere. Do you have the fertilizer recommendation bulletin for this year? It is available at the coun ty agricultural agent's office. This bulletin is valuable for year round reference, and has general recom mendations for fertilizing vege table crops, apples and peaches, fruits, lawns, and ornamentals as well as field crops. It is yours for the asking. Gardening is a family affair. Encouragement is given to 4-H boys and girls through the garden contest, but they will need added help and patient assistance by families and local leaders. We can all help with this project by show ing our interest. A good garden is one way of providing the food we need for a well fed family. Tom Mauney. of Murphy).
