F. Tugman. - It should be safe now to plant most warm -season vegetable crops anywhere in the State east of the mountains. It Is true that I have had tomato plants killed j by frost" in Wake County as late as April 25, but that is unusual. Also, if the plants have been.well hardened a light frost will us ually not harm them. Tomato, pepper, and eggplant ' plants should be hardened by withhold ing their water supply- -that is by keeping them on the dry side. Cabbage and lettuce plants are hardened by subjecting them to cool temperatures for a few days before setting. Try some of the new bean va rieties in the garden this year. Contender, Wade and Topcrop are all excellent -varieties and they are almost immune to mos aic, which sometimes reduces the production of Tendergreen considerably. Improved string less Blue Lake is an excellent pole' bean, especially for canning and freezing and Its absolutely stringless. For real flavor though its hard to beat Kentucky Wond er even if it is sometimes stringy and is very susceptible to bean rust disease. ' The perennial argument now comes up about the advisability of planting cucumbers and squa sh next to cnuskmeions. Some folks still believe they will cross and give the muekrr.elons a cu cumber taste or flavor. That is not true. Cucumbers will not cross with muskmtlons in the field nor will either - of these crops cross .with- pumpkins or sqush. However, one variety of cucumber will cross with an* other variety <rf cucumber. The same would be true of different varieties of muskmelons or water melons. But even so, there would be no effect on the variety this this season. IX you saved the seed and planted it next year, the e ffect of cross-pollination would show then. The only vegetable crop in which you see results of the cross during the current year is sweet "corn. White ,and yellow sweet corn planted side by aide will give your ears a mixture of white and yellow kernels this year. t.t.WAR LICK Try Herald Classified* They Bring Results \ HE OSTRICH PIANDOESmY WORK' OONT 68 A HUMAN OSTRICH ANO TRY#0 OCT MONO WITHOUT v WOTECTlOM.
