More or less is optional. This will lease you small triangular spaces between beds which can be filled with low growâ€" ing border plants such as sweet allyssum, portulace or othed easily grown border annuals. Mother Cary‘s chickens might be worked in here if you like them. Just a few suggestions about the locating of the various vegetables. Better grow plantsâ€"in constant use such as lettuce, green onions, string beans, ndish,cgeu. etc. at front of plot. Swiss ard, beets, carrots and similar crops next, Potatoes, if you must bother with them, at the back of the plot. Parsnips, late cabbage, squash and later maturing crops for the back next potatoes. Other vegetables such as tomatoes, peppers, egg plants and similar plants towards the centre. This will save you many a step. _ We are assuming‘that all your soil is of similar richness. If you have patches of good and poor soil plant accordingly. Those requiring nutriment such as egg plant, toâ€" matoes, cucumbers etc. in. rich ground and use the poorer soil on less hungry plants. This is just one broad suggestion. You may decide to work on different lines but, at least, work to SOME plan, Now, about your flowers. Some Eardenerzg)refer to have their side eds rais a)iThtly‘ Some raise at the rear and slope, slightly to the path. My preference is to keep the entire surface level or with a very slight incline. Do not attempt to lay out your beds wihout a line of some kind. If you are a string saver get out the pieces and tie the ends toâ€" gether. Carefully wind it into a ball and then throw it away and purâ€" chase a decent line from your hardâ€" ware store. It will be money well spent, Anyhow, use a line. Decide on the space between rows. The seed packages will, in most cases, tell you how much to allow. Now, all this is very simple and very elementary but how few gardeners, even experts, use this much care in their layout and how much of an improvement it would make if they did. _ ie den;â€"flowers and vegetables, Supâ€" pose you decide to use the sides of your plot for flowers. Decide how much width of space you will allow them. Say 2 feet,â€"% inch on the plan. Try out different ideas. Possibly curved beds. Whatever you do, try to visualize the effect. Better run a narrow path, of course, between your flowers and the center plot. If you have a fruit tree you must build your scheme around it. Reâ€" member that the spread of the branches is about the equivalent of the spread"of the roots and do not plant too close to the trunk, I am usumi:g, at this time, that you are decided on a mixed garâ€" If you intend to build a house, even a little one, would you be foolish enough to start its erection without some kind of plan? Imaâ€" gine purchasing bricks, lumber, nails and all the other necuur{ materials and going to the wor of building entirely by guesswork. I think not. I know I would not. It is just as necessary to plan a garden sensibly and methodically. . Here is the simplest way to start work on your garden while you have the time and before the growâ€" ing season sets in. We may assume that you have some sort of space to be used for the purpose. Tnfie a piece of paper. Measure up your available space. Draw on your plan the size according to & certain scale, say %4 inch to the foot. For instance, a i)lot measuring 40 by 80 feet would take shape on the gvlhln as an oblong 10 by 20â€"inchesâ€" en lay it out in rows using the same basis of measurement, Now, You must turn your imagination oose. GARDEN TALK ~" y# Laying Out ‘a Mixed Garden I hope you will excuse my writâ€" ing in pencil but I am afraid my fingers will not hold a pen yet. Now I will explain this letter. I promised your husband that I would write to you as soon as I arrived in England from Germany to let you know that he is quite O.K. and in the best of health, The last time I saw him he was lodking forward to coming home, himself, at the time he was and had been doing & very fine job as wardâ€" master in a hospital of "Obermassâ€" feld" in the heart of Germany, This hospital is manned by Allied Docâ€" tors and R.A.M.C. personnel, The food is fairly good and it is made up mostly from Red Cross P.O.W. parcels. While I was there he was very, very kind to me and did all he could for all the patients, In fact, both patients and doctors always had a good word for him and many times it was his smile and cheery voice that helped many an injured man to forget his pain. I promised to send him a souvenit of our friendsiip as soon as it was possible, so don‘t be surprised to get it before he gets home. Now I am sfraid I must close with my‘ best wishes to you all for a nieedy return of the person whom I know you are anxiously waiting to be united with onee again. Sincerely yours, (Ex This letter was Oscar â€" Fillman, Sgt. O, Fillman, Dieppe and taken pritoner and now in hospital helping in the heart of Germany. Dear Mrs. Fillman: Mrs. O. Fillman, 7 Concon Place, Weston, Ont. How do we know whether we have fertile seed, Test it. How? Take a couple sheets of blotting paper,â€"soak them thoroughly,â€" place in a flat dish in a warm place with a counted number of seeds beâ€" tween. In a few days the sood will have sprouted. Count the number which have sprouted per hundred and you have a percentage of gerâ€" mination. 80% is good. 50â€"75% is fair and below 50% is poor and only fit for the rubbish heap. Now, you who may be burning up with questions, do not hesitate to write and every attention will be given to your queries. Or those of you who have suggestions to make or who would like to have a disâ€" cussion on some particular subject, â€"write. If you have any special inâ€" formation worth imparting to our readers, write. Oh! hang it, write anyhow. The Gardening Editor would like to hear from you. That is the only way he can know if he is interesting you. j Many people prefer to test gerâ€" mination with soil. Very well, take a shallow window box with an inch or two of soil, any kind. Mark out rows about an inch apart and plant at depth of not more than 4 times the thickness of seed. Keep warm and well watered. You will, of course, label and count the seeds used in the test and can easily calâ€" culate fertility as suggested in last paragraph. _ _ _ _ 0 _ > _ The time is about ripe for orderâ€" ing seeds, dahlias, poenies, gladiali, roses and many other things you may have grown heretofore or which you have long intended to grow. Next week we will talk about starting annuals inside as well as some vegetable seeds. After so much care he has only started in producing high grade seed. When plants begin to mature, well trained employees walk up and down the rows culling out weakâ€" lings, the dwarfed, 5\& distorted plants. Finally only the best speciâ€" mens remain to provide the seed you only pay a trifle more for. I would not weary you by telling other steps taken to give you, as nearly as possible, seeds that bring very best results. & First, he only uses pedigreed seed, His ground is oh! so carefully prepared with no rocks, no clay, no clay lumps, properly fertilized and sufficiently watered to bring to maturity at the proper time. As I have said before whatever method you use, do plan it in adâ€" vance. I hope to be able to show a suggested layont on paper in the Times and Guide window next week iwhich you may be interested in seeâ€" ng. 1 have gone into this subject at frelter length than I intended, All expected to do was to make a few suggestions and ‘leave the rest to you, We really have a lot to talk about before the snow begins to fly again next winter. Today I want to call your attenâ€" tion to the importance of securing good seeds, They may cost a trifle more but the immeasurably greater results will more than justify the additional .expenditure. Did you ever think what great care a proâ€" fessional seed grower takes in proâ€" ducing the seed that afterwards comes to you in those gaily illusâ€" trated envelopes.
