Of Cabbage and Beans
The time has come, the
walrus said, to talk of—fall
gardens.
Not only to talk about them,
but to begin digging in them.
The searing hot weather soon
will be over, and the smart cit-
izen will be getting his ground
in condition for planting by
Sept. 1. In fact, there are
some vegetables that can well
be planted now.
Those who neglect to put in
fall gardens because their
spring agricultural projects
may have worked off all their
Victory garden enthusiasm,
and who may salve their con-
science with the vague assur-
ance that perhaps the emer-
gency is about over anyway—
they may regret their shirking
keenly. For if what many au-
thorities say is true, the food
scarcity thus far is nothing to
what it will be before the er

pasture production means an
increase in meat production
and an increase in food for our
soldiers, allies, and ourselves.
Mr. L. B. Dean farm in
the Tennessee Community,
finds that pasture mowing is a
very valuable thing from the
standpoint of his pasture im-
provement and live stock rais-
ing. This year the mowing on
Mr. Dean’s farm has killed out
weeds which have been sap-
ping the ground of much need-
ed moisture and plant food.
The area where the pasture
has been mowed on his farm
has been much greener than
where mowing was not done.
This is especially important
daring a dry year such as we
have had. Mr. B. R. Bowlin,
also of Tennessee, started
mowing his pasture last year
and feels that it is a paying
practice and is continuing the
mowing of - his pasture this
year. Mr. Pat Bussey, of Flat
Fork Community, plans to re-
tire from cultivation his over-
flow bottoms and to pat them
into permanent pasture. Mr.
Bussey is complying with his
Conservation measures through
the A. A. A. by securing phos-
phate to fertilize his pasture.
He plans to fertilize some new
pasture and some old pasture
and to put bis fertilizer out in
a way so he can check the re-
sults secured from fertiliza-
tion. Mr. Bussey is going to
establish seed plots at the up-
per end of these bottoms so
any overflows will scatter his
various clover seeds over the
rest of his pasture below. He
plans to use a mixture of
White Dutch Clover, yellow
Hop Clover, Fenian Clover,
Carpet grass, and Dallas

According to the Lufkin
Pasture Experiment farm the
recommended practices for
bottom land pastures are as
follows: Three to four pounds
of a mixture of White Dutch,
hop, and Persian Clover, to be
mixed with % ton barnyard
fertilizer and 200 pounds su-
perphosphate per acre to be
applied on a seed bed that
has been previously disced
lightly, to allow the seed to
make contact with the soil.

servation Service.
over how you’re going to eat.
And after all, even if you
shouldn’t need the food, msk-
ing a garden is one of the most
wholesome things one can do.
It is a source of fine physical
exercise and nourishment for
the soul. Somehow, cultivat-
ing growing things in the soil
also cultivates in the gardener
a strong kinship with the good
earth and its people. It makes
one a better neighbor, a better
citizen and a better human be-
ing.
