were three chemicals known' as dime-

The problem of rats is very serious,

damage to -buildings in addition to,

Right At 'the Door
It is a good plan to have the small-
er vegetables growing in a plot right
near the kitchen door. . Here they Will
be bandy,, especially when one wants
to`geta few onions or lettuce in: a
hurry, and , it is- amazing how much
produce one can• grow;. in such' a.
space. - .-
As 'a" matter of fact, for- the aver-
ag,e smaller gardener it is best • to
grow all the beets, beans, ..lettuce,
radish, carrots, etc., in, rows close to-
gether."in a kitchen garden of this
kind than in longer rows out in the
main -garden. The latter, of course,
is used for big, bulky crops like corn,
potatoes and peas and possibly the
main crops• of beans, but the heavily
planted, often cultivated. kitchen plot
near the )louse is an ideal Iodation'
for the --other stuff. Located close to
the house one can 'often. spend , odd
Minutes in 'cultivating and' weeding
when it would not be practical to
make a trip out into the big garden.
Wherever possible this kitchen, gar-
den should be located where it can
be. watered in very dry. weather:, ' :_,
Too Conservative •.
Most 'of us are too -conservative in
our "gardening. For generation we
have been -content to grow a very
limited variety' of 'vegetables --beans,
carrots, peas, lettuce and 'potatoes and
corn covering the complete range In
too many gardens. .
This -is a great mistake -as scores
of vegetables can, be grown to per-
fection -anywhere in Canada, and in
addition there'are usually several dif-
ferent. varieties of each: In addition
to the standard kinds 'noted here are
many others that' should -be included
such as head lettupe, brussels -sprouts,
Celery, Chinese .cabbage, sonie of the
