8 GARDEN PROJECT 
4. Notebook work. Each pupil should keep a neat 
and accurate record of all operations, results and ac- 
counts on the record pages provided at the end of this 
book, so that when the project is completed the pupil 
will have an agricultural booklet he will be proud to 
exhibit. Throughout the notebook work, pictures from 
catalogs and farm papers may be pasted in or sketched 
as the tastes and abilities of the pupil incline. Sug- 
gestions for the notebook work will be made in this 
calendar. 
5. Clippings and pictures. Begin making clippings 
from farm papers, catalogs, and other available sources 
of pictures and of interesting garden articles for later 
use in your notebook and class-room work.

1. Make a plan of the garden. On the page of your 
agricultural notebook set apart for that purpose draw 
a neat, careful plan of your garden plot. Draw it to 
scale. Indicate the rows of vegetables you expect to 
plant by dotted lines for first plantings and full lines 
for later plantings. Make your drawing plan show 
distance of rows apart and distances of plants in the 
TOWS. — 
2. Catalog studies. Send for seed catalogs and 
study them as to prices and varieties of vegetables. 
Decide upon the vegetables and the varieties you are 
going to plant. List these in your notebook. Later; 
in the month, if you plan to send to a seed house, you 
should make out your order so as to get the seeds in 
plenty of time. It is nearly always possible to get 
good seeds of a local dealer. Use only standard varie- 
ties adapted to the locality.
