SELECTION OF VEGETABLES 



This long rainy spell may have 

 made many have the "blues" par- 

 ticularly those gardeners interested 

 in starting seeds who let the open 

 days pass without seeding. However, 

 let us smile about it and think how 

 much good this water is going to do 

 California as a whole. 



Selfishness is a bad plant to let 

 grow within oneself. It is a good 

 plan to look beyond oneself and see 

 the other people, particularly the 

 neighbors. 



Since the growing season is so 

 short before the close of school we 

 have prepared the following list for 

 you so that you may select seeds 

 that mature quickly. If you are go- 

 ing to be at home during the sum- 

 mer would it not be a good plan to 

 take care of your garden? If so, 

 you could plant almost anything that 

 you desired. Possibly if your neigh- 

 bor is going away you could care 

 for his plot also.
