The Secret of Achievement
ie DOES SEEM that any accomplishment worth while de- pends a great deal on getting started right and then keep- ing at it. That is true in many things and very true in
GARDENING.
Why not grow a garden this year? There is no substitute for the superior flavor and goodness of vegetables grown in your own garden, Also, think of the good you get from the sunshine, the exercise and the fun of just watching things grow. We all know that certain foods will be scarce during the coming months. The demand for fresh vegetables, ber- ries and other small fruits will thus be greater, and we can help this demand by having our own VICTORY GARDEN.
Food is vital to our nation, so do your share for Victory.
Victory Gardens vs. Appetite Appeal
Whether you decide to set out only a few plants or sow only a few rows, you will learn there is no substitute for the superior flavor and goodness of vegetables grown in your own garden. What you grow will help provide the vitamins and minerals so necessary to keep up our health program. To be physically fit, mentally alert, and on the job at all times, a well balanced diet, including plenty of fresh garden vege- tables will provide the necessary energy. A garden will make one feel he has a personal part in the VICTORY program. It is up to us to feed ourselves now and a starved world later on. The average city garden will do well to conserve its beauty of lawn, flower bed border and restrict its food production to such easily grown vegetables and small fruits that will take small space and a minimum amount of care.
Victory Gardens vs. Eye Appeal
With extra emphasis being placed on the planting of vege- tables and small fruits in the Victory Gardens this season,

Three ounces of seed to 100 yards of row. One ounce will produce 2,000 plants.
The best way to raise Cabbage in the smal] garden is from the plants. Cabbage requires an abundance of both moisture and tilling. It is also advisable to enrich the ground if possible. Fertilizer may be con- served by placing a smal] amount under each hill before plants are set. It will pay you to set out both early and late varieties. Set early Cabbage 18 inches apart in rows and 2 feet apart between rows. Late Cabbage 2 feet apart in rows and 3 feet apart between rows. Cultural leaflet on request.

Three ounces of seed to 100 yards of row. One ounce will produce 7,000 to 10,000 good plants.
Celery, to be raised from the seed, requires almost expert care. It is better for those who are not practical gardeners to buy Celery plants. These are set out about the first of June, a foot apart, and mature along the last of September or during the first two weeks of October. Celery is by, nature a marsh plant, and the soil about it must be kept wet, especially when the plants are young. When they get to be about 4 inches high, shear off the tops; it makes the plant more stocky. As the plants grow, gradually draw the earth up around them to keep the stalks white; by the end of fall all should be covered but the tops. A heavy paper wrapped around each stalk will insure tender, white plants. Celery is planted in rows that should be at least 3 feet apart. About 30,000 plants to the acre. Cultural leaflet on request.

CORN, SWEET One pound will plant 100 hills. 10 pounds an acre.
Corn should be planted to the north of the garden, so as not to*shade the other crops. It should not be planted in a very small garden unless it is the only crop to be raised. It needs shallow but continual tilling. Just after the middle of May is a good time to plant. The rows should be 3 feet apart, the kernels sown three together every 6 inches in the furrow. When the Corn is well started, pull out all but one stalk to each place. Keep the little shoots or suckers cut from around the roots. The ears are ready to pick when the silk is brown and the kernels on the tip are plump.

LETTUCE All Select
One ounce for 200 feet of row. One ounce of Head Varieties will plant 400 feet of row. Two pounds per acre.
Lettuce will stand slight frosts, and is therefore one of the first things to plant; if the ground is well prepared, early April is not too soon. It can be planted up to the middle of July, and many prefer the later plantings. Place seed in trench half an inch deep, cover with fine soil to top of the trench and press the soi] down. The plants should be up in about a week. If head varieties are wanted, thin to 4 or 5 inches. The heads are usually well formed in 10 weeks and should then be cut or they wil] rapidly go to seed, especially in hot weather. The rows of lettuce should be at least a foot apart. The quality of the lettuce depends on the tilling—keep the hoe busy.
*These varieties form heads. ie “Mountain Iceberg,” Dark Iceberg, “New York or Wonderful also called Los Angeles Market. ‘De.

RADISHES
. One ounce for 100-foot row.
Radishes can be planted very early—as soon as the ground can be worked and no danger of frost.

TOMATOES Delicious
One ounce will produce 1,500 plants; 1% pound to transplant for one acre.
Tomatoes are planted indoors in a window garden about the first of March. When the third leaf of a plant has formed, put the plant into a 3-inch pot or box. After all danger of frost is over the plants may be set in the ground. .Do not plant Tomatoes within 3 feet of any other crop. Dig holes 3 feet apart and deep enough to allow placing the plant an inch or two deeper than it was in the pot. Cover the top of the pot with your fingers, holding the plant between them; then turn the pot upside down, tapping it with a trowel or other tool, when the plant will easily come out. Place it in the ground, pressing the earth around it; if the earth is dry, water it as soon as the plants are set. Some people put a ring of heavy paper around the plant, at the top of the soil, to keep off cutworms. June Ist is the usual time for transplanting in northern latitudes. Tie the growing plants to stakes. We will have plants ready in May and June.
Tomato Seed should be carefully treated with SEMESAN POWDER to prevent disease.

Brief Cultural Notes
ZINNIAS: These are warm weather loving plants and should never be sown until the soil has thoroughly warmed up and all danger of any frost is past. For best results, especially with the smaller flowered, early blooming varieties, we recommend sowing the seed where the plants are to flower. The taller growing, large flowered sorts can safely be transplanted, although they also wiil make a more robust growth and will produce more flowers if they can be sown where the plants are to bloom, and then when the seedlings are 3 to 4 inches tall, thinned to the proper distance. To induce a thrifty, heavy root system, irrigate your plants rather than sprinkling. Dig a little trench alongside the row and let the water run slowly for quite a while so it will seep down deep into the ground and make the food in the soil available for the plant throughout the mass of feeding roots. Always cultivate after each irrigation to conserve moisture.
GOURDS: ‘These should be sown where the plants are to remain and should not be planted until late in the spring after the soil is thoroughly warm and nights as well as days are warm. For best results sow in a warm, sandy location, somewhat on the dry side. Provide enough water for a normal growth until the flowers appear, after which no further heavy irrigation is neces- sary. Heavy watering during the flowering period will cause dropping of flowers and buds, and consequently loss of gourds. For perfect shaped specimens, vines should be trained up on a fence or trellis and the gourds allow to hang, thus assuring straight necks and preventing rotting or discoloration from the soil. Do not harvest the gourd crop until the fruits are thoroughly matured. This will be when the stem becomes brown and hard and pres- sure with the fingernail cannot dent the shell of the gourd. After picking, gourds should be hung in an airy, dry place until thor- oughly cured. The large, hard-shelled varieties are then washed and scrubbed before decorating. The small, colorful varieties are wiped clean of dust and given a light coating of varnish or shellac. If thoroughly dried before treatment, gourds should last several months for house decoration.
MORNING GLORIES: Never plant until the soil is thor- oughly warm. If it is too cool the seeds will rot instead of ger- minating. To aid germination of particularly hard-seeded varie- ties, filing a notch at the top of the seed will help considerably. Select the driest, sandiest part of the garden and sow where the plants are to flower as the Morning Glories resent transplanting. Keep on the dry side; heavy watering induces foliage growth at the expense of flowers. A poor soil is preferable to a rich one.

PEONIES -oftan
The Peony ranks among the most popular flowers. The blooms come out very early and are seldom attacked by disease. The most popular perennial for your home flower garden. Being perfectly hardy, one planting will do for a lifetime with suitable cultivation. Is strictly hardy and does well in most any location; however, responds readily to good rich, deep soil in an open, sunny position. Be careful not to plant too deep; the best is for crown to be about 2 inches below the surface. Ground should be spaded deep and well enriched, as suggested in our free leaflet.

The use of fertilizers with Lilies is most important. Well rotted Sheep Manure is best but should never be used in contact with the bulb. Bone- meal as a top dressing is very necessary.

Stately Lilies are of the easiest culture, and the varieties listed below are all perfectly hardy. After once being planted, they will increase in beauty and size with each suc- ceeding year. Lilies do best in a well-drained sandy soil, which should be fairly rich, and the plants should be given plenty of water during periods of drought. In order to grow Lilies to large size, the bulbs should be planted deep

The Gladiolus are the most attractive and useful cut flowers of all the summer flowering bulbs. The long, graceful spikes that carry fifteen to twenty buds may be cut soon as the first flower buds show color; then, if kept in water each successive bud will develop and thus prolong the blooming many days.
The planting season starts in April, and continues until in June, at intervals of 2 weeks; you thus have flowers from late July until frost time. Best results are obtained in a sunny position and placing the bulbs fully 6 inches deep. Water freely.

LYSOL. May be obtained from any drug store. Directions: Use one teaspoonful to a quart of water. For large lots, use one pint to 25 gallons water. Heat this solution to about 90 degrees. Put the bulbs (in thin cloth bags) into solution. Let remain for 8 to 10 hours. Solution need not be kept up to 90 degrees, but keep it and the room warm while bulbs are soaking. Do not heat solution hotter than 90 degrees, somewhat less will do, but solution must be warm and room warm to get best results.

How to Piant The planting of
balled and bur- lapped Evergreens is very simple. They like a good loamy soil, with drainage provided. The burlap should be left on the ball of earth and placed in the hole so that the top of ball is just below the soil surface. Usually a soil mark on the stem will show the depth it was growing in the nursery. The soil which is used to fill in around the ball should be tamped firmly. A thorough watering is very nec- essary after planting.
Our stock is all examined by State Entomologists and properly approved before being shipped.
Our stock is nursery grown, well rooted, well shaped and carefully dug with a ball of earth on the roots. They are ready in early March and may be planted until the middle of May. Balled and bur- lapped trees cannot be mailed. They are best shipped by express or truck. Prices are all F. O. Be. «

Directions for Growing Conifer Trees from Seed
Pine, Spruce and Juniper seeds are very slow in germinating. To hurry germination, many propagators stratify the seeds. This is done by mixing the seed with sand or peat moss, with sufficient moisture added to prevent drying. Store the seeds in a box for a sufficient length of time to allow the germ to become well started.
The seed bed is usually eight feet wide and any length required. The ground should be very thoroughly pulverized, the seed scat- tered broadcast on the surface, or in shallow rows, and covered with sand or a very light sandy loam to the depth of one-fourth of an inch. Caution must be used or many seedlings may be killed by drought or by white-spot injury to the base of the stems,
Stakes should be driven at intervals on each side of the seed bed and a rail or board nailed on to support shading. The latter is best made by nailing lath on small poles ten feet long. Eight feet should be covered with lath about one-half inch apart, allowing balance of. poles to project at the end. Young seedlings must be shaded on appearance.

SEEDS FOR EVERY LAWN REQUIREMENT
About Lawns A good lawn is, without doubt, one of the important features of the home grounds or of any landscape design. It should be remembered when considering a new lawn that the cost of the seed is only a very small part of the actual investment. The labor cost is the greatest. It is thus no economy to save a few cents by buying seed
of a questionable quality, only to realize the added expense in years to come of repatching and doing the lawn over and over again. We take pleasure in recommending our grades of Kentucky Blue Grass, which are the best obtainable.
For special purposes and certain locations we have made up mixtures which we feel very suitable. When you are in doubt about what seed is most suited for your particular purpose, please write us. Our leaflets give much information.
SPECIAL LEAFLETS, by C. R. Root. Each free for the asking. “How to Make a Lawn,” very clear directions. “Lawn Pests,” How to Eliminate.
When using Kentucky Blue Grass for new lawns, sow one pound for 100 square feet. Bent Grass, use one pound for 300 square feet. WE SPECIALIZE IN SEEDS FOR LAWNS, WHICH MEANS WE MUST HANDLE THE VERY BEST OBTAIN- ABLE. PRICE IS SECOND CONSIDERATION. COLORADO CUSTOMERS PLEASE INCLUDE SALES TAX.

STRAWBERRIES
Buy one-year-old plants and get them into the ground as soon as you can. Before planting, dip the roots in water. Set the plant with the crown or bud at the surface,of the ground. April and early May is the best time to set the plants. If in May, the leaves should be trimmed. We do not recommend fall planting.
For best results with Strawberries, give all-day sunshine and apply nitrate of soda or fine bone-meal fertilizer in June. Straw- berry plants are packed 25 in a bundle. We cannot accept orders for Strawberry plants after May 10th. They are too far advanced in growth.
We cannot be responsible for Strawberry plants after they leave us in good condition.
