No gardener is able to get good results unless he does some judicious thinning. Al- though there are some general Tules as to the distances at which plants should be deft in the row, yet definite rules need not:bother the amateur so long as he does a reasonable amount of thinning. Every housekeep- er does not know: that the ten- derest and. most delicious yego- tables she can have for farly pickling are the youmg vege- tables thinned out, and often, ~-through ignerance--thrown away. . Beets should be thinned un- til they are from four to six in- ches apart in the row. It i profitable to thin them out gradually. dLettuce should be four inches apart, onions three inches, peas three inches, and carrots and parsnips from four Would 1! NEW to six inches.
