Ferry's Victory Garden Plan will supply 

 a family of four or five with fresh vege- 

 tables all summer with some left over for 

 canning and storing. 

 • 

 How about a border of Lilliput Zinnias, 

 Dwarf Marigolds, or Petunias around the 

 Victory Garden? 



• 

 Start spraying the plants in the garden 

 before the insects get a start. It's too late 

 after the damage is done. 

 • 

 Plant all vine seeds in warm soil; they 

 may rot if the soil is cold. 

 • 

 Be sure to thin plants to the distances 

 given on Ferry's seed packets; both flowers 

 and vegetables need lots of room to grow. 

 • 

 Soak beet seeds overnight before plant- 

 ing if the garden soil is dry. 



Mix fine soil or sand with small seeds 

 before sowing; it saves thinning. 

 • 

 If weeds come up in your newly planted 

 lawn, don't blame the grass seed; most 

 soils contain hundreds of weed seeds wait- 

 ing for a chance to grow. 

 • 

 Use a sharp knife or shears when you 

 cut flowers; twisting or pulling them off 

 may harm the plant. 

 • 

 Make meals more tasty and appetizing 

 with home-grown herb seasonings. 

 • 

 Be sure to plant succession crops of 

 your favorite sweet corn; then you'll enjoy 

 corn-on-the-cob for a long season. 

 • 

 Select seeds of one or two new vegetables 

 or flowers. They'll add interest to your 

 garden.
