space. Another way to accomplish this, is to make 

 two maps or plans, exactly alike, indicating the rows, 

 distances, etc. On the first you can enter the first 

 and all-season crops; on the second, the succeeding 

 or companion crops. You can thereby show exactly 

 the same areas, occupied by two crops without con- 

 fusing or crowding the writing. 



COMPLETE CULTURAL DIRECTIONS IN TABULAR 

 FORM 



I have included in Chapter V, the details in 

 regard to all the crops for each month of the year. 

 From this and from whatever sources you may elect 

 to use, such as catalogues, your own experiences, 

 etc., you will probably construct a planting table 

 of your own. 



But for the novice who has yet no experience, 

 and who has no objection to getting complete 

 information from one book, I add a detailed plant- 

 ing table for vegetables. Follow it closely as long 

 as you can evolve no better, quicker, more efficient 

 method. But when you find that you can plant 

 a little earlier than is prescribed, or a little closer; 

 when you discover a more convenient way to train 

 tomatoes, or to blanch celery, then make the most 

 of your improvements, and help others to do the 

 same. Leave the ranks of those that follow 

 and are helped, to become one of the leaders, the 

 teachers, the helpers. The step is not so long. 

 You can make it. Try.
