Thorn hill Parry Sound New market Powassan Stirling Acton Milton and Campbell ford The bride was honored with fed up with your garden by now What seemed a good Idea in the spring is no longer such a novelty I wouldnt not have a garden the values of one are manifold However when you stop to figure out the hours it takes to produce that dollars worth of peas you wonder if its worth it at all of course Is never NEVER When you start doing arithmetic you find your free eggs cost two dollars a dozen your tomatoes eighty cents a pound and your carrots after constant weeding at minimum wages cost something like three dollars a bunch The answer is to grow only what Is economical for you and what you really enjoy eating fresh from your garden We no grow cucumbers I dont put up pickles any more after several years of fuzzy dills that had to be thrown out And theres no sense planting an entire package of seed for the few cukes we eat in salad Next year radishes will be culled too The radishes I can get for twenty cents in the store are sweet round red and The radishes 1 grow are pithy woody tasteless and grow in obscene shapes But green beans from the garden arc worth all the effort green peas especially if you like to lunch while hoeing The only months I really love the vegetable garden are February and October In February we plan the plot and order seeds When the snow is thick nothing is nicer than dreaming of cool sunny days spent quietly planting in the warm mother earth and standing back to herald a gentle summer rain So much for February dreams In Octobtr the harvest is fun The time consuming things like beans and peas arc in the freezer You enjoyed the corn and can happily throw any remains to the tattle without a qualm Tomatoes are ripe for sauces and you have to strip the vines anyway I love gathering baskets of tomatoes green peppers and onions to throw in a big pot and make spicy smelly things I love gathering squashes and pumpkias And digging potatoes What a sensory delight to make smothered in tomato sauce baked with a squash potatoes and some onions all from your own garden However right about now I m fed up Fed up with the weeds that grow like Topsy much faster than my dainty plants Fed up with the mosquitoes bugs Fed up with the hiit The mangolds and columbine w planted to keep away the bugs arent growing nearly fast enough ii the lime they flower the bugs will be grandparents I no longer visit friends who have tidy free gardens and if people look at mine I explain it really the It-flour- from the manure pile I spend hot itchy hours burning to a crisp w ith my trusty hot dreaming of a driven rotor tiller And Snow reunion is enjoyed in Hornby CAROL ANNE SOMERVILLE and Douglas David Murphy were married at the Salvation Army Citadel
