Vegetable Garden Essential
By MABEL GENTRY PEPPER.
The garden is an essential part
of the right kind of a home, and
there are comparatively few of us
here in the Atlanta section, so
many years removed from coun
try or small town, whp can
well remember the Important
part played by the home garden
in the lives of our parents and
grandparents,
With a right proportion of veg
etables on our tables we can all
go a long ways toward geulni rid
of the sluggishness and lack of
energy that lays hold on most of
us during the warmer months.
There's lots of talk these days,
and rightfully so, as to the need
of efliciency in our lives, and no
man or woman, boy or girl cm}
be at their best in business, so
ciety or school with a clogged up
system due to a lack of the cor
rective power of the more com
mon vegetables which nature pro
vides for this purpose,
Looked at from the viewpoint
of either pleasure, health or
money saving, a garden either of
flowers or vegetables is absolutely
essential, v
Now, most of the hardy per
ennials are ready to thin out and
in most cases the mother plants
are benefited by having the little
shooty taken away. Try not te
move a plant just as it is starting
to bloggom. It sometimes ruins
the first buds unless one is very
careful,
So many people are so impa
tient to see the ‘:u'dan growing
they select the largest plants
when buying. A strong, small
plant will be hurt less by moving
than the larger ones.
Another mistake soo many make
is in overcrowding their beds and
boxes. Petunias, zinnias, nastur
tiums, geraniums, verbenas, co
lias, hellntrofi. and marigolds

themums all increase to many
times their original size and
should be given space to grow.
Another thing to remember if
you wish the choicest blossoms,
don’t let your plants bloom them
sslves to death, and don't let the
blossoms g 9 to seed.
llf you wish to save seed for
next year, select the most perfect
blossoms that follow after the
first set of buds. Mash these blos
#oms and let them fully mature
and you will get the first quality
seed.
The price of all geeds and bulbs
has advanced so much this year
that it will surely not be time
wasted to save all we ecan this
year, s 0 we may be sure of good
s2ed for next year.
When raising flowers for deco
rative purposes we want to allew
the buds just to mature and then
cut, and very early morning is the
best time to gather the flowers,
Never jerk or roughly handle
vour plants. Always use a pair of
scissors to cut the flowers or
ferns.
You can make your home more
beautiful and pleasing to both
your family and friends and
make it an endless joy and pride
to vourself by helping nature to
help you.
Besidea your personal appear
ance, there is nothing that appeals
to human pride as does the home,
and “there is a very great differ
ence between a house and a
home.”
To have the inside of a “home”
more cheerful looking there surely
must be a touch of nature, either
a pretty fern or some house plant,
a bowl of flowers, either wild or
from your garden, will always
lmgrove the mppearances.
ur appeal is to hide the ugly
places, make Atlanta more beau
tiful and gain the pleasure and
benefit of coming in contact with
nature,
