Gardening Hints . Itea ns should not bo planted un til ihe mound Is warm. They are very lender to frost or to cold cut ting winds in their younger stages. Hardens with light, warm, sandy .-mil can get un earlier bean start than those with heavy colder soil. lEadlshes, carrots and lettuce should he sown at ten-day Inter vals throughout the spring season in order ti have a continuous sup ply of crisp, tender roots and leaves. Don't let spring get too rar ad vanced before reseeding the bare spots In Ihe lawn, and applying plant food. 3KJ $3" Facts That Concern You IS'o. 28 of a $erie mmmum mm about mm and mmum .s ) . , A.000.00o 75 Ibi. 100 lbs.
