Forehanded Farmers
The successful farmer is always forehanded. He pushes
his work instead of allowing his work to push him. He
plans his necessary work well ahead and gets much of
it done before the rush season . This policy gives
opportunity for more thorough, intelligent, and produc
tive work ” (1927 Old Farmer's Almanac) To have a
productive gardening year, tend to your watering and
fertilizing now, and continue to plant seeds of fast
"ing plants such as beans, squashes,
ingolds, and nasturtiums. Prune azaleas
er they’ve finished blooming, and thin
r'ruits such as apples, pears, and peaches if
too many flowers have set fruit. Tend to
weeding and stake plants early.
Weeds never die. German proverb
■or If your washer is overflowing with suds, sprinkle salt
Into the water.
