VOZ • , Si -Gordon Lingisay • a Shortcuts Too much emphasis cannotOe laid en taking gardening slowly, . Nothing is gained and Often con- siderable is lost by rushing in too much, too soon. In the old, old days everyone would get the whole garden, both' flower and vegetable, planted on the first fine ,day and then, providing it escaped the last frost, there would be a big display of bloordaand a feast of vegetables, for a week or so in the summer. And that would be about all. , Now the present generation is supposed, to be always in a hurry but they don't garden in that hap- hazard fashion. They plant grad- ually .and they plan to have a suc- , cession of bloom and a succession of flowers all through the summer and fall. But while it is not ad- visable to .rush things, everyone with any • interest in this fascinat- ing hobby wants to have a few extra early things too. The main thing is not to risk all plants or seeds at once. 'Just .put a few of the hardiest in, a week or so ahead of the regular time, and if thess, come along with- out damage then we have gained considerable time and we . can boast to the neighbors. To speed these very early plantings, we can boost with- a little quick acting fertilizer. We can also use start- ed punts from greenhouse or nurs- erymen. We can also protect a few extra early hills of cucumbers, melons or half a dozen tomato plants with glass covers or paper caps. These will ward off any late frosts and give us a week or a fortnight extra start. Wait Until Ready • It's a great mistake to do any general sowing or cultivating while the ground is the least bit muddy. Heavy soil is . injured and later trouble results when it is dug or worked too soon. 'A good test is to take a little earth and squeeze it in the hand. If when released it crumbles but does not pack it is fit for the spade or plow. Frequent Mistakes . Planting too close and too deep are probably the' most common mistakes. One should forget all about the tiny seeds one is sowing and think only of the size of the plants those tiny seeds will grow. Even little fellows, like alyssum or portulaca, or leaf lettuce and green onions, require some space to develop properly. The 'safe rule is about at least half as much space between plants as they will be Jjgh when full ,grown. With srnW flowers and vegetables "this means at least 'a couple of inches between and with zinnias, peas, beans, etc., at least four to six inches. With dahlias and corn this should be 12 to 18 inches.,, The ASHFIELD ASHFIELD, April 14, Miss Mabel Macdonald, • of Windsor, spent the week -end at her home here.
