for Year Reund Growing 


Make beds smooth and 
level by raking a shallow 
furrow every 2-3 feet. Fingers 


MAKE PLANTING BEDS AND SOW SEED 
it will be impossible to remake the garden. The furrows thus established should be 
shallow at first, say about four inches deep, and made by raking soil from the line 
to the center of the bed. Later on rake more soil up toward the top but only after 
the plarits are growing well and can stand more cover about their roots. 
Plant seed on both sides of the bed in case of plants that don’t require much 
space such as carrots, onions, radishes, turnips, in fact all the winter and early 
spring vegetables. For later and larger vegetables—tomatoes, peppers, eggplant 
and such plant one row to the bed so the growing plants won't overflow inio the 
furrows. Vine crops—squash, cucumbers, melons, etc.—require 5 to 8 feet of bed 
and often can be planted to climb on a fence or stout trellis to save space. 
The garden should be planned so that what is planted early in winter won't 
interfere with spring planting for summer crops. Short season crops will be used 
quickly and should be replanted as long as the season permits with ample fertiliz- 
ing to replace the nutrients extracted by the successive crops. 
Flowers are equally important to morale and your garden should not be without 
them at this time. There are many places where they can be used without taking 
up vital space. Use them to separate the garden from the house; along the paths 
of the garden and on the fence where they will certainly make the garden a more 
pleasant place in which to work. 
For economy buy only the best seed such as we offer at Liefgreen’s—selected for
