When Planning the Garden — 



The properly planned garden stands for half the battle won. To carry the 

 correctly started garden to a successful finish requires tools selected with as great 

 care as your seeds, plants, etc. Discriminating and exacting gardeners have 

 come to recognize the merit of

 Wheel Hoe, Scratch Weeders, Tools for the Lawn.
