PLANT BY THE MOON? 
Many folks believe that planting 
»9 by the mcon is the best plan to fol- 
low. This time-honored custom has 
brought them good luck in all their 
planting endeavor. Here, listed briefly, is 
all the necessary information generally 
shown by more voluminous arrangements. 
As seedsmen, of course, we cannot vouch 
for the effectiveness of this method, but 
we are glad to provide this up-to-date 
chart for those who want it. 
PLANTING DAYS FOR 1950 
Vegetables, vines, plants and all things that produce their yield above the ground, such as peas, 
becns, tomatoes, lettuce, cabbage, etc., should be planted duting the increase while the moon is in 
a fruitful sign such as Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces, especially during the second quarter or after the 
new moon is increasing. Do not plant on the day the moon changes quarters. The best days are: 
Best planting dates for things thct grow and mature above and below ground are as follows: 
Vegetation which produces its yield abeve the ground should be planted during the first or second 
quarters of the mocn, the second quarter is the most fruitful. The decrease or third and fourth 
quarters are good for plowing, grubbing and destroying weeds especially in fourth quarter. 
The planting dates in the late winter and early spring are given for southern cilmates and hot 
hcuse planting, also for buckwheat, timothy, seeding and winter grain. 
When the Moon is near full and in the sign of Sagittarius that is a good time to set onion sets 
or plant seed. 
When Moon is increasing or full and in Libra plant and transplant flowers, although the watery 
signs, Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces are also gocd. 
The above flower dates may be used also for planting corn, wheat, barley, rye and buckwheat. 
For all PLANTING and ASTROLOGICAL purposes the Moon’s true place is in the SIGNS OF 
THE ZODIAK. Some Almances give the Mocn’s place in the constellations, which is not right for 
Planting or other Astrological operations.
