As Old Doc Lemmon says, “You sure can tell the difference between the first spring day and the first day of spring.” so do not let these beautiful days cause you to be too enthusiastic in planting your garden. In a day or two, if the warm sunshiny days continue, the early sweet peas can be planted in a sheltered location and in very rich soil, if you wish profusion and perfection of bloom. This is good clean up and burning weather. Gather up the bits of old wood not cleaned up from the wood wagon and burn them. Prunings from the fruit trees can be burned also, if cut up in small pieces and put on a hot fire. Plan your garden walks and put them in if you are in a location where the soil is well drained. Spading for the vegetable and annual flower garden can be done and a quantity of well rot ted barn manute thoroughly in- orporated in the soil. It is still not too late to enjoy the forced blooms from flower ing shrubs. To the uninitiated the bloom of the shrub is more apparent now than several weeks ago.
