Plan Your Garden Now—Plant Your Garden Early 
Everyone should, who has a suitable garden site, and a willingness 
to follow recommended procedures; also enough time at his disposal 
to permit him to take proper care of a garden right through the 
season, from planting to harvest. The choice of vegetables should 
be such that they will provide ample quantities of minerals and 
vitamins. 
Provide for Succession and companion crops so that the whole 
garden area is in use from early spring until fall. 
A well-planned and operated garden will supply the family not 
only with fresh vegetables during the summertime, but also with 
supplies that may be canned or stored for winter use. The vegetable 
garden is very definitely a health garden. 
I am pleased to report entire satisfaction with seed purchased from you 
for the past several years. I do not take the trouble to test them any more 
before planting time. Our gardens this season are coming fine—the only draw- 

back is shortage of labor. ae ;
