Watch For,Bugs
It is quite. true they didn't have
the bugs and diseases in our grand-
father's garden that - we are
plagued with today. On the other
hand they didn't have the handy
controls either. With so many
easily applied chemical mctures
on the .market, there is I ttle if
any excuse for having our flowers
and vegetables damaged let alone
ruined. It is no longer necessary
to prepare various concoctions. All
that one has to do is to go to the
nearest seedtore, tell them our
troubles ancftet some handy pre-
paration which is simply dusted or
sprayed on. For every bug Or
disease there is a specific cure or
control. The main thing is to stai t
control measures just as soon as
the first injury appears. Treat-
ment is not expensive.
One other point. A healthy,
clean and growing garden is the
best insurance ag,ainst injury.
Well spaced, well cultivated plants
are far less susceptible to trouble
than neglected plots overrun with
weeds. Prompt clean-up measures,
after harvest or blooming, and in
the spring and fall -will also help
greatly. Many bugs and disease
live over in the ground, or in
weeds along the edge of the gar-
den. Cleaning these up regularly
will help substantially in keeping
a garden healthy.
• No Hurry
At the risk of repetition it should
be stressed that there is no neces-
sity for rushing gardening opera-
tions. Far more plants are in-
jured or lost through too hurried
and early planting than in taking
things slowly. In virtually every
area of Canada it is possible to go
an planting right up to the first
of July. Aside from very early
things like grass seed, nursery
stock, sweet peas and a few others,
which are all specially mentioned
in any good seed catalogue, there is
little to gain from rushing the
season. As a matter of fact there
is not' a great deal of growth until
both the weather and soil are
really warm. This means at least
May in rnost parts of Canada,
though of course in the warmer
parts of British Columbia, South-
ern Ontario and the lower tip of
Nova Scotia it is usually possible
to beat that schedule by perhaps
weeks. Even in these areas, how-
ever, there is -lots of opportunity
for gardening in May and June.
One very common mistake of
the beginner, is to plant all seed
im a single afternoon and just as
soon as the first fine days start.
This is risky and foolish. • It is
risky because a later sharp frost
may ruin all tender growth. It is
foolish because if it escapes frost
all the flowers will come out early
or the vegetables will all be ready
at the same time. With the latter
especially it is advisable to spread
sowings, so that the harvest may
be spread out also. Experinced,
gardeners make a regular practice

of planting -such things as carrots,
beets, lettuce, beans, spinach,
radish, etc.; at least three times,
about two to three weeks apart.
To further spread the harvest, they
wilt also use early, medium and
late varieties. In Canada as in
Europe, there is no good reason
why the vegetable garden should
not yield continually from early
summer until late fall. And the
same goes for most annual flowers,
too.
Something New
From the test gardens of North
America, which, of course includes
Canada, come a fine selectiog of
new flowers and improved vege-
tables each year. Most Canadian
seed catalogues list these separ-
ately and they are decidedly worth
noting by those who wish to add
variety and interest to their gard-
ening. In this category this year
is the brand new Royal Carpet
Alyssum, a bine or purple in this
usually white little edging flower.
There is also a new calendiila, sev-
eral new zinnias, some of giant
size, and a new and more brilliant-
ly colored marigold, a lavender
salvia and several others. A few
of these will certainly add variety
to any flower garden and will irn:
press the neighbors, too.
Anfong the vegetables there are
many improvements. That is,
earlier. corn, tenderer beans, high-
er yielding peas, and finer, crisper
carrots. • To those who are un-
familiar with the recent develop-
ment of vegetables, the improve-,
ment in quality, hardiness and
earliness in the last decade is
simply unbelievable.
