 Winter Garden Tools 



OUTSIDE the ground is frozen — you can't dig in the dirt. Inside the fire is 

 blazing — why don't you bring your garden there? Put the plot on paper. 

 ponder the failures of last summer, plan for success in the coming season 

 Then when the sap begins to run you'll be ready to get busy with Your Summer 

 Garden Tools. Get acquainted with 



Everyman's Garden 



a week-by-week feature of The Country Gentleman; a year-round diary for the man 

 with the small place; a correspondence course in gardening for the over-the-city-line 

 man, with fifty-two lessons a year — at less than three cents a week — written by men 

 who know how to make things grow. 



CONSIDER THE HEN 



Stop thinking of poultry in terms of dollar-a-dozen 

 eggs and forty-cents-a-pound broilers. Be your own pro- 

 ducer and middleman. A few square yards in the back 

 yard is all you need to start. You are not going into busi- 

 ness and don't require a 810,000 poultry plant. You 

 merely want to raise eggs and broilers for your table. 



There's a chicken expert now planning to start a 



chicken family for you to watch. Week by week he 

 will tell you the history of that brood, from the breed- 

 ers to the egg, the hatching, rearing the young chicks, 

 feeding them, doctoring them, bringing them up until 

 they begin to lay. You can't go far wrong on the 

 poultry question with the history of this family 

 before you.
