In' the town garden where space is
at a premium the wise gardener- will
concentrate on those space -saving vege-
tables like beets, carroto, spinach. let-
tuce, onions, beaus and sifullar
yielding :things things that can be grown in
rows of from twelve to fifteen,- inches
apart. Tull or sprawly vegetables like
corn, potatoes, peas, tomatoes, squash,
cucumbers, etc., create a special.prgb-
lem. These require rows or, hills at
least eighteen inches apart.
....<,, Where the plot is restricted, most
people will give up growing • their own
potatoes, and possibly some of the
oaters. Peas, corn and tomatoes, how-
ever, though they 4Jo occupy a good
deal of room, are so much tastier when
freshly picked from the garden at the
door that special consideration is,often
gii'en them.
A good deal of space can be saved
'where the tomatoes are trimmed and
staked, and the cucumbers and squash,
too, if grown around the edge of the
Blot arid allowed to run.over the paths,
perhaps can be crowded in. The little
acorn type of squash wilt yield a lot
for the space occupied. •
Be Ready for Pests
In pioneer gardens there vere' no
potato bugs, no cutworms and little
disease. Today, unfortunately, there
is a special pest for alnm t every flower
and vegetable and more seem to appear
each year. However. also appearing
are better sprays, dusts and other
control measures, 'some of them like
the- new I)DT and 2, 4-I) being revolu-
tionary in results.
The • best • protection against disease
is a healthy garden, grown from good
diseiase•resistant seed, well cultivated
and free from weeds. Bugs harbor
among weed growth waiting until the
garden stuff. is big enough for a raid.
There are hugs that east holes in the
foliage. poison' will get -these. There
are bugs that suck out the juices and
the plant .will wither. These must- he

cheeses usually hits the plant cells
and causes withering or Tot, in blackish
spots... Chemicals like sulphur n re used
in this case. Often one gfi'od treatment

'vents to get the young ones will be

i needed. Most chemical, lose their
potency in thole, i o a fresh, supply each
season is necessary, Be ,ready fur the,
enemy"
'dam'-",'"unnnnner Care
Once planted and growing, about the
only summer care the garden should
need will be thinning, weeding and
cultivation. If the soil is .very dry it
is advisable to water. With the latter
job one should bear in mind that one
good soaking,- whether with vegetables,
flowers or lawn, is worth a dozen:
sprinkles. Sprinkling only settles the
dust and has a tendency • to bring root
growth too close to the surface, where
the sun is liable to hurt it. A little
chemical fertiliser applied carefully
according to directions is• also a good
thing at this time. It will hurry along
growth and with vegetables will, it's-'
crease tenderness.
When the hot weather sets in . it is
as well • to Cut lawn grass less fre-
quently and not so short. This protects
roots from the burning sun.
Good Flower Shows
A really dazzling showing can be
made with a few annual flowers sown
at this late date and with a minimum
of effort, Cosmos, giant marigolds, zin-
nias, petunias, portulaca, nicotine, alys-
sum, are easily grown almost anywhere
in Canada. Some of the larger .flowers
like cosmos and marigolds and nicotine
can actually be used in• the place of
shrubs. At this. date, of course, one
should use started plants which will
bloom in a few weeks. These are trans-
planted to permanents iluarters when
they are well established with several
sets of leaves. Por husky growth, tall
c'osilaus, gladiolus, dahlias, giant mari-
golds and zinnias should have about
two feet each' wa;s. Petunias, nastur-
{iums, medium marigolds, need about
a foot apart for •best results; smaller
things like alyssum require six inches
each,way.
The. experienced gardener knows
ninny- short cuts to hurry growth along.
In dry weather - he -will, if at all
possible, soak the garden' once a week.
Where no hose` is available he will
lave things like lettuce, tomatoes and
beads close to the house or pump so
that they ' can be watered' with, the
niinimuui of inconvenience. IIe also.
