He suggests spading I a strip just wide enough for a row J or two, so that L.I1H Me the garaener won't have to step or walk on the newly spaded ground. The strip is planted to one or two rows, then another strip is spaded and planted - - right on across the garden piece. He adds, that as moisture is plentiful (how true) in February, he practices shallow planting. He continues: "Garden peas, sweet peas, carrots, radishes, beets, lettuce, early cabbage plants, cauliflower, spinach and other early maturing vegetables should be planted in February - - if the ground can be worked. In your hotbed, basement or greenhouse, you may start your more tender vegetables and flower seeds this month. They can be transplanted outside when danger of frost is past." Mr. McGilchrist is right, of course, but you will note he said in the very beginning "usually. This January has not been usual in any sense of the word.

Save Every Day al IGA can be worked or should be 'tram pled on at.alL The frost has made the top very much of a mess and we really need a quiet, soaking rain to bring our ground out of its present condition. Then, if you have a light, friable soil, it wont be long until you can follow Mr, McGilchrist's suggestions. If your soil is heavy, dont work it when it is wet Youll be sorry. Yes. I know, Mr. McGilchrist might and probably it would work for him. I have seen his garden. He is that kind of gardener. He has what is called the magie touch. Salem has a remarkable number -of that kind of gardeners. But the advice I am giving here is to the novice gardener: Dont try to get onto the soil before it is workable: It may be before February is over. Colorful Catalogves It has been a long year since we have had as lovely catalogues as we are receiving this year. Nev er before have so many color plates been used. And I dont be lieve that ever in one year have so many new things been offer ed. It is almost confusing to try to choose. Your snapdragons bloom the first year, they can be rust-resist ant and ruffled and double and of many colors. There is a dwarf blue morning glory that may be used instead of the forever-being used lobelia as an edging. There is a snow white Azaleamum which is guaranteed to do as well as the rose colored one. There are many new (covering the past few years) nasturtiums. There are new roses, new gladiolus (the new Ravel, a blue) from Europe, is said to be SOMETHING), new delphiniums. new chrysanthemums (some of these come into bloom much ear lier than the old varieties), and even new varieties of vegetables. To relieve that run-down-at the-heel look of your garden along about September there are two new Michaelmas daisies which have Just come over from Eng land. They are Peace, a pink, and Plenty, a soft blue. If you get no further in your gardening this spring, you will have gained a liberal garden edu cation by a thorough going over of the new seed and plant books.

Ana.: The newest variety I know of Is September, brought out by the New York experiment sta tion two years ago. I have not seen it and I do not know if it is ob tainable here. St Regis is one of the older varieties. June is anoth er variety. C M. asks if readymade soil sifters are purchaseable or if they have to be home made. Ana. I have seen them on the market at from $1 to $1.50. Some of them are adjustable to coarse or fine soils. Some come in sets with sifters for the different vari eties of soil you may wish. O. L. asks how many varieties of heather there are? Ans.: That would be impossible for me to say.' Heather varieties and its relations are numerous. In one encyclopedia (yes.
