Of course if one wantsto put
a price on the, hours spent pleas-
antly in the sunshine, it might be
cheaper to buy some vegetables
at the corner store: But there is
one thing that one cannot buy at
any store and that is the freshness.
crispness and tenderness that
comes only with vegetables grown
properly, and grown and picked
right at the kitchen door.
How do we get this top quality?
There is no secret about that. First,
we use the best seed andof Varie-
ties specially recommended for
Canadian conditions. Then we
must grow quickly. If there is
any real check to those vegetables
of .which leaves or roots are eaten
they are liable to become woody
or tough. Essentials of quick
growth are sunshine a little stimu-
lating chemical fertilizer, regular
cultivation, thinning if necessary
and watering. And there is some-
thing else, which is most import-
ant.
Every vegetable comes to a stage
when it is at the peak of its qual-
ity; and then passes beyond. With
some things like green beans, peas
and corn, this peak is quickly over.
One day the vegetables are crisp,
tender and sweet. A few days
later they begin to get tough. If
oe plants all the seed at the
sane time and of the same variety,
then that peak is over for the
whole season in a very short time.
The proper way is to spread out
the sowings and thus spread out
the harvest. We spread the sea-
son still further by using early
and -late maturing varieties.
Garden Paths
With a minimum of planning
and care, paths can be made to add
interest and beauty to any garden,
even in the vegetable patch. Where
traffic is heavy such as near the
door or a gate, it is advisable to
County Seeding
On Home Stretch
Seeding, • which had become
quite general in the county, was
brought ,.to a standstill with a light
snowfall accompanied by rain, the
middle of last week, according to
G. W. Montgomery, Huron County
Agricultural Representative. Quite
a number of farmers, particularly,
in the -South -end of -the cotllnty,.
report that they have finished seed-
ing of the spring cereal grains.
There is still quite'a demand, par-
ticularly in the north end of the
county, for registered and com-
'mercial cereal grain seed. It is
pleasing to note that the lowered
price of grains and clover seeds
interested many more county farm-
ers in seeding more hay pasture
and long term pasture mixtures.
"The warble fly spray campaign,
Which - is being carried on in all 16
townships -of the county again this
year, is now well under way and
it would appear that each year
this program is operating much
more efficiently and ,effectively.
There ' is an increased interest
and enrolment in 4-H Clubs work
in the county, particularly in beef
and dairy calf clubs.
The climax of the Junior Farm.
ers' program, .the annual at-home,
held ' in the county, was well at-
tended and well arranged.

use some solid material like lila
stones, concrete slabs, bricks,
cinder or gravel. With any of
these the main thing is to place
firmly and level with the surround-
ing grass, so that the lawn mower
will trim ,or better still run right
over. Where the traffic is lighter,
one can simply use grass. It is
surprising' the amount of wear
well grown and well nourished
grass will stand. In lots of public
dardens grass paths are used to
ivide the flower plots and they
are seldom worn thin. Where
cinder or gravel is used in paths
or driveways one can eliminate
grass and weeds by sprinkling
heavily with rock salt or treating
with some of the weed sprays.
Keep It Clear
It is so much easier to cultivate
and maintain a vegetable garden
where annual and permanent
things are kept separated. To
look after a piece of soil all clut-
tered up with fruit trees, grape-
vines, rows of asparagus, rhubarb,
currants or raspberries and other
things that stay in the same place
for years, is like trying to paint a
room without taking out the furni-
ture or pictures. Even in the
flower gardens it will make things
easier where annuals and peren-
nials are kept fairly well apart.
When the space is- free one can
cultivate or dig thoroughly in 'fall
or spring and also in the vegetable
garden particularly sow special
green manure crops like oats, fall
rye.,,or clover which is later dug
under and thus enriches the soil.
Usually 'With a little planning
we can place the permanent things,
at one side of the vegetable gar-
den, or along an end or corner.
Fruit trees, and fruit bushes
should certainly be placed there.
With the centre clear then we
don't need' to worry when the man
comes with the tractor to plow the
garden.
