PLANTING DIRECTIONS— 
FOR SEPTEMBER 
Vegetable Garden. —Nearly 
all seeds recommended for 
last month can be sown this 
month, but some more should 
be added to them. 
In the early part plant 
Bush Beans as they will bear 
before frost sets in. Also 
plant all early varieties of 
Peas. All kinds of Radishes, 
Carrots, Beets, Parsnips, 
Salsify, Chervil, Kohlrabi, 
Broccoli, Cauliflower, Kale, 
Celery, Corn Salad and Mus¬ 
tard can be sown during this 
month. All varieties of Herbs 
and Spinach can be planted. 
Begin sowing Onion seed 
of all varieties after the 
fifteenth of this month. As 
this is one of the most im¬ 
portant crops, it should not 
be neglected. 
Transplant Celery plants 
in ditches made for that pur¬ 
pose, and if the weather is 
favorable, set out Lettuce, 
Beet, Cabbage and Cauli¬ 
flower plants. 
If the weather is not too 
hot and dry, Spinach may be 
sown, but has to be well 
watered, otherwise it is im¬ 
possible to get a stand. 
Some Cabbage seed can be 
sown, but Cabbage sown in 
this month will generally not 
do so well as seed sown dur¬ 
ing the previous month. 
Set out, divide and trans¬ 
plant Shallots, set out Onion 
sets and Chive plants, sow 
Sorrel and Turnip-rooted 
Celery. 
Field. — Continue to plant 
Potatoes for an early Winter 
crop. Use only small ones 
left over from a late Spring 
crop, but do not cut them as 
they are apt to rot. Plow un¬ 
der the Cow Peas and pre¬ 
pare land to set out Cabbage 
and Cauliflower plants. Sow 
seed Rye, Barley, Wheat, 
Speltz, Vetches, all varieties 
of Clovers, Dwarf Essex 
Rape, Alfalfa, Johnson, Ber¬ 
muda, Rye, and Rescue 
Grasses, and all varieties of 
Stock and Sugar Beets. 
Orchard. — Take out all 
trees not giving satisfaction 
and make arrangements for 
profitable stocks. 
Flower Garden. — During 
this month Flower seeds such 
as Pansy, Daisy, Sweet 
Alyssium, Candytuft, Stocks, 
Flowering Sweet Peas, Phlox, 
Pinks, Marguerite Carna¬ 
tions, Asters, etc., can be 
sown. Plant Hyacinth bulbs 
for early blooming at the 
end of the month. Sow Rye 
Grass for a beautiful winter 
lawn.

the month when Artichokes 
should be dressed, the suck¬ 
ers or sprouts taken off and

Onion seed can be sown, 
but it is best to get it in the

that the plants get large 
enough before cold weather 
comes on.

Sow Cabbage, Cauliflower, 
Spinach, Broccoli, Brussels 
Sprouts, Kale, Mustard, Car¬ 
rots, Swiss Chard, Beets, Sal¬ 
sify, Leeks, Corn Salad, Let¬ 
tuce, Parsley, Chevril, Kohl¬ 
rabi, Radishes, Endive, Pars¬

be planted for stock food, 
also Rhodes Grass and all 
varieties of Clover, Alfalfa, 
Grass Rye, Rescue, and all 
varieties directed for Sep¬ 
tember. 
Orchard. —Spray your fruit 
trees in order to destroy 
scale and other insects, and 
prepare land to set out more 
trees. If the weather is good 
and the trees are in sap, bud 
Orange trees
