Just What Vogotabloa to Grow Depends Upon tho Individual Tattoo of tho Family Can Bo Kopt Supplied With 8oaaonabla Froth Gardtn Truck. Prepared by Unlt4 Btatea dt-partment of agriculture A little forethought will enabla t comparatively small tract of land to supply the average family with fresh vegetables throughout the growing sea son, say specialists In the United 6tates department of agriculture. Most owners of small gardens are con tent to raise a single crop on each plot of land at their disposal. It Is quite possible, however, to grow two or three crops In one season, and If these are properly selected the home grown produce will be both better and cheaper than any that ran be pur chased on the market. Just what vegetables are to be grown depends, of course, upon the Individual ' i . .i tha;i Khiiuli! i.. i ! :mii anion;: plant whlrli .!'! for lll.rv.

In this plan all the vegetables named art planted In rows across from the liiBlde lateral rows of strawberries. As rapidly as each kind of peas matures and the crop is over, kale is planted In Its place. The ground to be used for tomatoes Is first planted with onion sets, and these onions are used as rapidly as needed. When the time comes to set out the tomatoes some of the onions' are dug to make space for the tomato plants. When the tomato crop is over the ground is occupied by spinach as the third crop. Spinach Is ulso planted as soon as the bulb onion from the side are gathered. The beans, carrots and peas are succeeded by late cabbage, and between the rows of lute cabbage "potato onion" sets are planted. Late beans are planted between the rows of parsnips aft er the radishes and lettuce have been gathered. tustes of the family. In general It may be said, however, that the aim of the home gardener should be to ruise vegetables In which freshness Is an important quality. Peas und string or lima beans, for example, lose much if they are not cooked almost Imme diately after they ure picked. If the small garden plot, however, Is to be made to bring the maximum re turns In economy and pleasure to the owner every nvailnbl foot of it must be made to work continuously. This eau be accomplished only by careful planning, and it Is recommended, there fore, that amateur gnrdetiers draw up in advance a complete layout for their garden. A typical plan of this character Is shown In the diagram above. On the plan the gardener should indicate the date when each of bis projected crops Is to be planted. No more space should be allotted to each than Is needed to furnish a suffi cient quantity of the vegetable for the family consumption or for local sale. In many cases also space should be left between the rows for the inter pluntlng of later crops aud for easy cultivation. Plants which make a high growth aud cause heavy shade should not be located where they will Inter fere with sun loving small plants. Perennials, too. such as rutibar aad THE AMERICAN ROAD 1917 DEFINITION A strip of unowned land over which j anybody Is free to walk, ride or drive: : If he can. Collier's Weekly. Oregon roads are no exception. In their campaign of misrepresen tation of facts, opponents of the $6, 000,000 road bond bill are making the baseless charge that it will cost the various counties not less than $10,000 a mile to prepare roads for hard-surfacing by the state; that for this rea son few counties under the 6 per cent limitation can afford this expense and consequently will not be in a posi tion to obtain paving under the pro visions of the road bond bill. The actual experience of different coun ties in the state disproves this con tention of the road bond opponents. Morrow County Is completing the grading and draining of a stretch of 18 miles of road from lone to Hepp ner. The cost for the work for the greater part of that mileage was $150 a mile. The very most expensive sections of the road did not cost to exceed $5000 a mile. Under the rul ing of the Highway Commission it will only be necessary for counties to grade and drain the road. The state will lay the crushed rock base and the paving. To be sure, the money from tha (road) bond sale wilt for some time to come be spent mainly on trunk roads which will not seem directly to benefit the farmer. But they will benefit bim directly. It the trunk I lines ao not pass nis ironi aoor tney are semom many mues away ana ev ery rod of good, hard surface they give him to travel on means a saving of time, money and horseflesh. It means also better schools, accessible churches and a general uplift of con ditions, to say nothing of growing land values. But the time will soon come when the trunk roads will be finished and then It will be farmers' day. Laterals will Infallibly be built to connect rural communities with the central arteries so that the -farmer can speed all the way from his gate to the city on a hard surface. This Is worth working for. It la worth some waltli.g and sacrifice. Portland Journal. HEllO uuD&B! oli r..r.7 TO KNOW LOT ABOUT QOCD I TOBACCO.BuT TOUNCVC i TESTED ANY AS GOOD AS THIS VBCUT-THYIT?
