Adapted from O. O. 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 skillfully worked will easily pay $25 

 for the season. Trv 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 plant a few flowers and vegetables, or it may be that your school 

 yard is already 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.
