Systematic Gardening

It is not the size of the garden that counts! 
If is the method pursued in planting and culti- 
vating it. Intensive cultivation of any garden 
means to keep each square foot of space con- 
stantly busy. On correct crop rotation depends 
the quantity and quality of the garden’s product. To make 
your garden yield maximum returns for every effort, use the 
Efficiency Garden Chart 
Doubles Your Carden Yield. By its use you can 
raise $50 worth of vegetables on a plot of ground 35 ft. 
square. It teaches the novice, as well as the experienced 
man, intensive gardening as practised by experts — to make 
two vegetables grow where one grew before. It enables 
one to visualize and plan in advance for the whole season 
his entire garden.
