VEGETABLE GARDEN S thi FOR HOME PLANTER" pe pe HoW Those Who Want Their Own gh Truck Hhould Carry on Their Ba Enterprise. lu' a?j (By O. M. Clark, Assistant Horticulturist, Clemson College.). so, The essential things to be consid- do ered in the home garden are: Lo- w* cation, planning, preparation and pr' pll cultivation, fertilization and equip- tj1( meats. Uf> In locating the garden the question of its proximity to the house is pr. of vast importance, for naturally co most of the work is done during ro spare moments which could not be taken advantage of if the garden {1Q were located a half mile from the (.jr house. Other things being equal, KU .he general lay of the land deter- lK. nines to a considerable extent the jn earliness of the crops. Well-drain- pyf ed land, sloping gently to the south {8 or southwest, is preferable for the fn production of early vegetables. With barriers, such as hills, woods, jjG hedges, tight board fences, etc., on m| the north or northwest produce very m, much the same efTect. Choose a lo- co cation that is well drained or tile wj drain it after it has been chosen. If circumstances will" permit, co make the rows long, thereby sav- hc lng time in turning and eoonomlz- tj, lng land. Grow vegetables in rows long enough and wide enough to w, I oitltlvoflnn hv hnraa onH *? |IU1 Ui I V VU1 Vi l ?V1V/It uvauv ? ?? ^ [| wheel hoe. If the rows are long It \y may be necessary to plant more m( than one kind of vegetable in the gr same row, In which case it is ex- co ceedingly Important that they are e{j compatible?that is, they require OF the same general treatment and fa practically the same growing sea^ son. The perennials, such as as- tli paragus, rhubarb, etc., should be planted at one side where they will not interfere with the cultivation of the other crops. The larger grow- Gf lng plants, as corn, late cabbage and no potatoes may be planted together an on the other side of the garden. Of ag course these suggestions are gen- re eral, since frequently there are condltions over which the gardener has little or no control. Sometimes (u there is a decided variation in the te. character of the soil in the same th garden. This, as well as any other local condition, ought to be taken m, into consideration in arranging for m the location of the various crops. |)C For example, if a part of the gar- wj den be low, moist and cool, this place should not bo planted to early 8a crops, which require a quick, warm S|) soil, but should be reserved for onions, celery, etc. ail A rotation of crops, manures and p., W tillage should be practiced 011 the gr ^ garden, as well as on the general farm. It is doubly important to 1 th rotate if diseases and insects be- Gf come serious on any one crop. In (|f a rotation to eradicate diseases and insects, the greatest care should be Ve taken to select crops on which these particular pests can not thrive. For 01 example, the potato "scab" will |)( live on such plants as turnips, rad- or ishes and- rutabagas. There are some pests, however, which can not w be starved out in this manner on so kl small a place as the garden. In m case of this kind, it is usually 01 cheaper to plant that particular di crop and others on which this pest hi would exist on a different part of i>: the farm until the pest has been t; starved out of the garden. o, Time and labor will be saved by <| making the garden soil deep, fine tl and rich before planting. It is not sufficient that the land be smooth e< on top, but the pulverizing process sc should extend as deep as the plow- g ing, for few things are more detri- c< mental to the delicate roots of the tt small plants than clods and air a spaces, both of which are results of w poor preparation. By harrowing n thoroughly before and after plow- t? ing, the land can be put in excellent physical condition. A deep, thorough preparation before planting and frequent, shallow cultiva- v tlon after planting Is necessary for li best results. < o The fertilizer used influences to u a marked degree the character and o quality of the vegetables produced, o Barnyard manure Is undoubtedly a the best for this purpose, but care w should be taken to see that it Is _ well rotted and contains no elements that would be Injurious to the soil. An excess of such things as e sawdust, shavings, etc., which do o not rot quickly, have a tendency to produce sourness in the soil which j, is detrimental to practically all r I garden vegetables.
