PAGE SIX HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON January 28, 1948 This Is the Time To Plan Gardens "Food, Foundation of All Nations" Makes Ameri-. . can Gardeners Think of .Spring Planting What to do in this year of 1843? What with flower gar dens ao necessary to the morals of our country, and a. special need for the planting, growth and harvesting of vegetables for our own tables that others less fortunate may eat! The an swer goes something like this: do both. Last year It was the Vlctory garden as a patriotic gesture, this year It looms as a vital necesclty. Following Is the first of a series of Interesting articles which will appear in this section, outlining, ex it plaining and helping this if year's gardener down the i; dirt path. f "In the face of growing and iV. of Increasing needs by our ft armed forces and by our al- lies, can anyone with a suit s' able plot of ground do better r than to raise a garden to sup- plement the dwindling vegeta- 4 blo and fruit supply? 5i "According to Professor A. G. B. Bouquet of Oregon v State college who is giving a series of lectures on Victory I Gardens, quantities of food i are needed, and science and 5 practice together can accom : plish its production. "The question is raised as to where gardens can be raised, especially in towns f and cities. In Oregon towns i and cities there . are still I plenty of vacant lots and r plots of ground to be found. ' $3? v There should be no destruo I I : . . tlon of ornamental gardens; j (lowers can and will bo t V:' ;V?' grown, here as they are still I ' ' being grown in England after F- several years of war. "iSven as the Red Cross and I other emergency organizations I require leaders so does prao- s tical gardening. We are for tunate in having trained f i , county agents and workers " - among our boys and girls, ' v., . and - now we have another ; vroup- studying to become leaders in gardening in their t communities. These are the garden clubs which are scat tered over the entire state. -"Professor Bouquet points out that it is definitely up to people to produce their own Vegetables during the coming year, but they must find suit able conditions to make the investment in seeds, fertilizer, water, and work, pay; ; ; "The elements upon which good . growth depends are, good seeds suitable to the lo cality, well worked soil with enough fertilizer, water, and cultivation to produce maxi mum results. Soil comes first because it is of basic impor tance, and without a suitable ' growing medium crops can not flourish. Soils vary from very light porous soils which will hardly hold water and -( plant food, through the loams and sandy soils to the heavy sticky soils that are found so frequently in our own vicin ity. The physical and chemi cal composition of soils are of prime importance in crop pro duction. The chemical com position of soil is easy, to change but the physical is more difficult and is of most importance. Soils have to be taken as they are to start but " they can be greatly improved." A heavy soil needs organic material to lighten it because unless it gets these things it becomes heavier and heavier, as it is worked. Just as a porous or light soil gets .lighter and lighter unless something is added to balance the soil makeup. . . ' "It is time to plan your Victory Garden now. Plan ning saves waste. "When you plant a garden,' no matter how small, and get good production from it, you -are helping to defend your country.". .. .
