Gardening as a rule is the easiest hold for ordinary city people. There are not 'so many secrets about growing beets, carrots, potatoes and beans as there are spout growing plums and apples and cherries.

You must not couht on large returns until you have planted considerable ex perience as well as seeds, but with the worst sort of blundering you can hard ly fall to get enough vegetables for home consumption the first year; the waste can go to your cow and horse. What you can do will be something like thia: From a garden five rods square, get your table corn in succession froYn July to September. You will from the same field get plenty of green peas dur ing the same period. For string beans and shell beans you will need another strip about one rod by four or five. Po tatoes will call for a third strip six rods by four, and good mellow soll ft rftust b? to give you good Now when you come to planting sor 4 “ttbrket, multi ply the stripe according to the amount of vegetables you are prepared to truck and sell.
