THE GARDEN M A G A Z I N E 
81 
Livingston’s Globe tomato, grown almost exclusively in the South Prizetaker, a "thoroughbred” American May King, the finest early outdoor lettuce. Sow April 10 for 
for winter shipment. Does well anywhere onion. Sow on April 10 use on May 30 
have not known them to vary to any great 
extent in all sections of the country pre- 
senting the same climatic condition as 
Central Ohio. 
The quantities of seeds suggested in the 
first column of the Time Table are sufficient 
for a season’s requirements in connection 
with a garden of 30 x 60 ft. This offers 
no room, however, for pole beans and the 
two late varieties of corn. To grow these, 
an extra space, say 20 x 30 ft., is required. 
Under careful management and by employ- 
ing intensive methods of cultiva t ion , a garden 
of the smaller size, 30 x 60 ft., planted to 
the “pedigreed” vegetables mentioned, 
will provide all the fresh vegetables a 
family of five can eat between June first 
and frost.
