 that were big enough to eat. Then my 

 cabbage plants were thinned out two 

 feet apart, and a lettuce plant. May 

 King, was put between each cabbage 

 plant. I sprayed my carrots with whale 

 oil and tobacco soap water because they 

 were full of little sucking lice, and my 

 cabbages and potatoes were sprayed with 

 arsenate of lead for bugs, and Bordeau 

 Mixture was sprayed on my potatoes for 

 blight. Afterwards my potatoes were 

 full of green lice on the under side of the 

 leaf, and I had to spray them again, this 

 time with tobacco water and soap water 

 mixed together, and that killed the lice. 

 My squash vines drooped and I did not 

 know what was the matter with them, 

 and they were dying when the garden 

 man came and showed me how to cut the 

 vines open for borers and afterwards tie 

 them together with pieces of cloth and 

 cover them with dirt. I think he found 

 almost a dozen borers and I found six or 

 eight afterwards. So I have only two 

 squashes for my collection and they are 

 not very good ones. I made frames out 

 of slats for my tomatoes, and the plants 

 were almost as high as my head before 

 they began to fall over the frames. 



The last time the judge came he said, 

 "Your garden is a dandy," but I don't 

 know if he really meant it. If you want 

 to see what kind of vegetables I raised, 

 you can see my collection. (The collec- 

 tion took first prize) .
