Sometimes it is advisable to grow several crops 

 of the same variety in succession. A man in Iowa 

 has grown as many as 10 crops of radishes in the 

 same bed. Before one crop was ready to harvest 

 seeds were planted for the next crop in rows close 

 beside the growing plants. 



Some of the early crops may be grown between 

 rows of potatoes. In the berry patch there is 

 usually space for growing vegetables. All of this 

 is based on the principle of getting the utmost 

 from each square foot of the ground. 



While it is impossible to give definite informa- 

 tion as to the best varieties of crops to grow in the 

 different parts of the country, the following sug- 

 gestions will be of considerable value. The 

 varieties here recommended can be grown success- 

 fully in nearly every section of the United States, 

 but there are localities in different sections where 

 they will not thrive at all. For that reason infor- 

 mation from persons of experience near your farm 

 will be absolutely necessary. 



The varieties mentioned, however, are worth 

 trying. They are all standards. It is expensive 

 to experiment with novelties. If you are going to 

 experiment at all, experiment with some of these 

 standard varieties that have proved their worth.
