The homo garden paves the way, an it wore, for t Im* larger operations of fruit ami vegetable growing. h |b ul way* 'the forerun* j ner of commercial development. Pium it has evolved all the great | fruji and vegetable interests of the i country. Small and unpretentious I as Ti may appear, it has been the t/lnl ground and propagat Ing field where the fHiut-K of numerous glVeli ; sjrts havt boon pro von jind where ? iImimn; ;!|l of on r varleth.H of high .quality and commercial merit have been produced. J>? view of tlif (i\i-y t hat fruit aud i f'f'-dt ? getables are appreciated by! ' 1 ?? hi km cm or people, in the city,; Ijv u and fonnlQ', it Is t>ll.rpritiiitg liow little at teuton i? given to ihe growing ot tliom by t bono who. hii-v Xho proper facilities and locutions at their command. Itoth of these! UOulthful i>i ?><t ik.Ih- of i h*? j tdiould have n regular and permit- ; neut pi arc on the fatally hill of; faro, hut in many instances tbeir} culture has been neglected to such j an extent thai they are c-onhldorod almost a luxury. Instead of seeing uk one t ravols tliruout our State, ?'.r* hards containing the best varie i-ijps of practically all the different 1 kinds ot fruft maintained in a thrif-i ty condition, what' do we hco? In! the majority of eases, wo see only! a few trees of t lie commonest kinds of fru+1 occupying the waste cor- j tiers- about the home grounds or standing here and there in the.' cot-' ton and corn fields with every evi dence of neglect. Instead of see ing well kept gardens^ producing in abundance a variety fresh vege tables for the table every day in ijie year, what do we see? All too often we see in the Spring only a few of the hardy vegetables such as cabbage, onions and turnips. In the mid-summer a few of the frost Tender sorts, as Deans, toTnatoesrand squashes, and a little later in the season a bountiful crop of weeds. Most farmers and suburban dwell ers make some effort to grow fruit and vegetables for home use, but in the majority of cases they ? do u(i .".row enough to supply 'their families, and that which (hey do grew is often inferior in qualify: It is a common sight to observe peo ple on their way home from town stop at the coiner grocery for a choice head of lettuce or basket of strawberries, when on ground," a distance of less than one hundred yards from their kitchen, they covild have growing, fresh and juicy, a very much superior product. Not. infrequently, there are those- who have every opportunity to grow and preserve any amount of fruit and vegetables that purchase a con stant "'supply of canned goods of this nature. Think of it! In a land like ours, where these things grow so easily and cheaply, people ordering canned fruits and vegeta bles from the wholesale houses of our large cities, paying for the cans, the canning, "the freight, and be sides getting an inferiior product. The opinion has become all too prevalent among the people of] this state that our section Is not j one where high class fruit and veg- j etables can be grown. ' We exclaim I when we see the beautiful packages of fine well-placed fruit, and vege tables "sent in" from other parts i of the country: "South Carolina cannot grrow such^produce! " The fault, however, does rft>t lie with our State, but with ourselves. We have all the natural requisites for the production of the very best fruit > and vegetables. If we radd 4o this a full share of energy, coupled with ! a better understanding of the prin- i ciples of fruit and vegetable grow- j ing the result would prove a reve- ; lation. There would be no more craving In the spring for a ? plate . of luscious strawberries, no more I i longings for a rosy-cheeked peach;' no more unquenehed desires for a "something green" in winter, and above all, there would _ be no more orders for canned goods. Instead 1 thero woulud be jt happy content- ' ed household with a table loaded with the choicest and most whole some diet that our country affords. It is true that not every fruit and vegetable will reach perfec tion in each individual locality, but practically every kind can be grown for homo use and tho majority of them, If given tho proper treat ment, can be made to attain high quality. If one wishes to grow quality fruit , and vegetables, one must give them quality care. T^ocate the fruit and vegetable garden In a place all* to itself; plant desirablo varieties in tho proper way. so as to have a continuous succession, and devoto to them the same care and attention that ia given tho standard field crops and it ? will yieUl a doubly proportionate income. ?No uruu on 1 1 1 ?? ftrtU Is worthy of iuSf'o careful study The value or1 a fww acrre* wisely developed uh u homo garden can bo made about ! 1 lines iih Kl'wiil itH I ht> same area | devoted to ordinary fanu crock A 1 carefully planned garden will ton- i t r I bin iHoiittM ti i n>' to |)M, i> 1 1 1 t,f j fare i liruoiit 1 1? ?? entire year, mak ing the financial savings tvorthy of consideration.
