Plant Fall Victory Gardens Now, but
Use "Early" Varieties; Prepare Also
For Combating Pests and Disease
By ROBERT E. GEIGER
AP Features Writer
DENVER Now is the time for all good Americans to plant
their fall victory gardens. That's the first and most important mid
summer day's chore for the man with the hoe.
Second, he should spray or
dust for bugs and disease control
to keep the garden healthy.
Third, tend crops carefully. In
hot weather plants decline rapid
ly if they receive insufficient
water, or are watered Heavily at
the wrong stage of their growtn,
and if weeds are permitted to
choke them.
Plant Now For Fall
Even if the growing season In
your commuitv is short, there are
manv vegeianies mat
planted and brough to maturity
after the first crop has been
harvested.
One of the most Important
things to remember -about plant
ine a fall garden is this: Use
early varieties, not late. Varie-
n-rt flaeti-iHart flfl "artv" tw-
jcause they mature more rapidly
than "late" Kinus.
In considering what varieties
i to plant, consult your commun
ity's frost chart, available at
;vour county aeent'ssoffice or pos
fsiblv at a seedsman's.
I This chart shows when frost
'mav be expected. Don't plant any
frnst-susceotible varieties that
will mature after the first aver
age frost .date. In this class of
vegetables are tomatoes, peppers
and beans.
I On the other hand, some veg
etables are improved by frost.
Included are parsnips, which
may remain In fhe ground all
i winter for spring eating: col-
lards, brussels sprouts, late cab
bage, turnips and carrots. Beets.
turnips and carrots are best for
! storage, of course, if thev are
from the fall crop. July and even
' August are planting dates for the
i best storage crops in most parts
of the nation.
