Beware of III Results of
Over-watering the Garden
At this time of the year and later on
through the summer the question of
moisture in the vegetable garden is a
vital factor in the successful growth of
the vegetables. All food is taken up
by the plants in a liquid form, hence
water must be present in a proper de
gree to dissolve the plant food and
thus make it available for the use of
the vegetables. Quite a majority of
our vegetables are largely composed
of water and it is very necessary
therefore that they have good quality,
that they grow rapidly and be pro
duced in a soil which has a good mois
ture content, especially during the dry
days of June, July and August.
At the present time, due to the
rather wet spring, there is plenty of
moisture in the soil and it is not nec
essary for any gardener, except he be
working on a light, sandy soil, to prac
tice any form of irrigation, with the
possible exception of the use of water
in transplanting plants to the garden.
But for those vegetables that have
been planted some weeks ago, cultiva
tion is at present the most efficient
means of giving vegetables the mois
ture which they need. The work of
cultivation enables the plants to get
moisture in the most approved way—
namely, by taking it from below at the
roots, without the top strata of soil
being crusted or made hard.
Many gardeners get the notion at
the present time, because of the dry
appearance of the soil, that it is nec
essary to get out the hose and possibly
the sprinkler and start to water the
garden. If they examine the soil care
fully, they will find plenty of moisture
two or three inches below the dry sur
face. This dry mulch at the surface
is of great importance in holding the
moisture at a depth to which cultiva-
tion has been made.
Important tools for taking care of
the cultivation efficiently and rapidly
are the hand hoe, the rake and possibly
a small wheel hoe, if available. The
hand hoe, however, can be used to very
good advantage in working up the soil
while the rake is especially good in
pulverizing clods and making the
mulch fine at the surface.
While there may be a tendency for
many gardeners to take advantage of
the early morning for cultivation, so
far as time is concerned, yet during
these morning hours the plants are of
ten wet with dew, and hence it is not
advisable to do much cultivation at
that particular time. In some cases,
if the work is done early in the morn
ing, the plants will have a tendency to
be diseased ; in other cases, the leaves
will become dirty and the pores
through which the plants breathe will
be closed. If there seems to be in any
way a necessity for putting on water,
the irrigation should be followed by a
good cultivation as soon as the ground
is in suitable working condition.
Under no circumstances should the
garden be irrigated once a day; in
many instances not even once a week
unless the soil is sandy and quite por
ous. Vegetables suffer from damping
off, stem rot and other fungous
troubles when the ground is contin
ually wet and compact. This com
pactness must be broken in order that
the soil may be properly aerated. For
many other reasons, therefore, in ad
dition to the ones suggested above, it
will be seen that cultivation is one of
the most important factors in the
maintenance of moisture during the
summer months.—Professor A. G. Bou
quet, Vegetable Gardening at O. A. C.

Because a pitcher appears to be
looking at first base all the time, you
need not think that he is in position to
throw over there. Eddie Plank, for
example, seems to have his eye glued
to the runner on the initial station but
he cannot throw there unless he just
lobs the ball and be is therefore an
easy man to get a lead on. Some other
men who do not seem to be paying
much attention to the runner really
are watching him out of the corner of
their eyes. Caldwell, Bender, Coombs,
Walsh and Shawkey are examples of
right-hand pitchers who are hard to
run bases against. Walter Johnson Is
a tough one, too, because he gets the
ball away so fast and throws with so
much speed that the catcher is ready
to peg before you are anywhere near
second base, says Ty Cobb, in the
American Boy.
Never slide headfirst. It is danger

But the glass house is not only fragile but transparent. You criti-
cize your neighbor and your neighbor begins to look into and through your
edifice. Judge and you will be judged. Your house of glass throws your
life open to the world. You see something awry when you peer into the
glass windows of the other’s house, but he sees more that is questionable
in you.
Your glass house shields you from neither missiles nor criticism. To
live in a glass house must be uncomfortable, since glass is not the proper
material to use in constructing a comfortable dwelling. No one would
think of calling it a home. Light comes through the roof and floor, wall
and wall. In the glass house you have no privacy. You can see in all
directions, but you can be seen from all directions, too. If the glass of
your house were adamant you would find your vitrified dwelling uncom
fortable. It could be no place for the human soul. Nevertheless, whole
cities are now being built of glass houses. The house may look as though
it were made of brick or concrete, but in reality it is a dwelling of glass
where no private life is possible.
No man liveth to himself alone. But if it is bad to live in seclusion,
it is not much better to live in lack of seclusion.
The need of contemporary life is to find some new form of seclusion.
We must live together and eat together and travel together, but we may
be able to find some new way of nourishing the private inner life. This
new seclusion you must find, lest you r life be all public and miscellaneous,
