Spring and summer 



Adapted from C. C. Morse catalog. 



THOUSANDS of boys and girls joined the California Junior Gardening 

 Club last year. Together they planted home and school gardens. 

 Together they harvested the crop. We do not know what became of 

 all the beets, carrots, radish, daisies, pansies, and the like. Plants were kept 

 at home, others were sold, given to the poor, used at school luncheons, and 

 so on. Some boys and girls made enough from their gardens to buy a 

 bicycle, a watch, a wagon, a pair of skates, several rabbits and chickens. A 

 garden plot skilfully worked will easily pay $25.00 for the season. Try it. 



THE SCHOOL GARDEN. 



Urge your teacher to start a school garden for your class. Perhaps you 

 like grammar, arithmetic, geography so well that you can spare no time 

 to prepare a seed bed and to plant a few flowers and vegetables, or it may be 

 that your school yard is filled with trees, shrubs and flowers. 



The Chico State Normal School has seeds to send you, and this paper is 

 sent you free. We ask only that you plant and care for the seeds.
