More than 26,000 girls in the 15 Southern States planted winter gardens last year, and 4,949 more had perennial, or permanent, gardens, according to reports compiled by the United States Department of Agriculture. The winter garden bridges the gap in the seasons, enabling the southern family to have green vegetables the year round, while many indirect benefits result fromi the perennial garden in adition to its direct uses. The perennial gardens generally contain some fruit or nut trees, grapdv vines, berries, or other small fruits, selected according to climatic conditions. The home demonstration agenw, who sfreesupervised by the United States Department of Agriculture and the State colleges, encourage the girls, who are doing advanced work in the garden clubs, to establish permanent gardens, because they realize that such gardens serve as memorials to club girls who go away to high school or college ancl do serve to draw the girls bac kto the farmsteads. A perennial garden also provides a means to,'earn money, 'and enables many girls at school to pay at least part of their own expenses. Plantings in these perennial gardens are generally begun not later than spring of the second year of club work, so that by the time a club member reaches her third or fourth year's work her garden is in good bearing. llONEM TWOR0 t .: ' 'J ."7- -t-y*y-y OvttKB.1 Oil/"/t tc ZC. . / .i tii JO ' "7 One man p'.o vs Yio 9acrrs r, in 10 hours Ons at an lists 12 to 20 acres in/Ohoars S ? ? * V.
