AVERAGE-SIZE FAMILY CAN BE
FED FROM 75-BY-100-FOOT GARDEN
Possibilities Large in Plots Available in Suburbs or in
Vacant City Lots Why Not a Gardening Club?
Canning and Storing for Winter
By JOHN BARTRAM
Possibilities are almost unlimited on tho
scale of needs for an averago-slzo family
In a typical suburban plot, pay, of fifty or
seenty-nve feet by one hundred feet. These
same possibilities can bs realized to tho full
In the city by any one with the enterprise to
obtain permission for the "farming" of a
vacant lot. Possibly two or throo neigh
bors could get such permission and conduct
a community gardening club. Insuring not
only tho crops to reduce tho cost ot uing,
but nlso healthy exercise.
On a plot so constituted ns to area every
thing for the summer needs could be raised
n "largo abundance," nnd enough of cer
tain things garnered to can and store away
for a liberal winter supply.
Tomatoes, 'string and wax beans and
beets can be canned. If It Is possible to
secure absolute sterilization, corn and gar
den peas can nlso bo canned, but experience
has proved that under tho ordinary methods
of canning theso do not prove such good
keepers as tomatoes. In caso tho combina
tion Is liked, tomatoes and corn and oven
lima beans can be canned together. The
acid of tho tomatoes acts as a preservative.
This makes a nice mixed vegetable simply
cooked and seasoned and slightly thickened.
Or It can be used as the vegetable basis for
vegetable soup when vegetables are at their
high-water mark.
Pickles, ketchups, chow chow and a mul
titude of sour stuff can be made with
cucumbers, beans, cabbage and peppers at
hand. Tomatoes, and particularly tho yel
low egg or plum tomatoes, make a very
-delicious preserve.
Cabbage, celery, beets, turnips, carrots,
salsify (oyster plant) and parsnips keep
well over winter If stored In boxes of dry
soil or sand and kept In a dry, dark, cool
part of the cellar away from the heater.
A very slight sprinkling of water should be
applied pnee a week or so to the soil In
order to maintain the natural quantity of
moisture In the stored vegetables.
Today's diagram gives In graphic and
easily understood form an Idea of what can
be planted, how much to plant of each and
distances In rows. It Is the result of practi
cal experience In a garden covering the
range of territory specified. Kverythlng Is
provided for except potatoes. Theso tako
up a considerable amount of ground for a
long season, and are not usually piantod In
a suburban garden. If the family Is small,
the amount of other things may be re
duced, on the reckoning that tho diagram
provides for a family of five, and the sur
plus space devoted to potato culture. Half
the area should give several bushels crop.
A garden 75 by 100 feet permits tho iimj
of wider rows. This Is something of an
advantage In some respects. It allows more
room for cultivation and Is a guaranteo
against crowding tho plants for space to
spread and for nutritive elements from the
ground. There Is the trifling disadvantage
that here Is more open, non-producing soil
to be kept free of weeds nnd in finely
pulverized condition than when the rows
are closer. (
Mors vegetables can be grown In this
area by doubling or otherwise modifying the
number of rows for some of tho things
specified, such as those allotted cabbage,
corn, beans and tomatoes. Ths rows given
to musk and watermelons could be used ad
vantageously for bush llmas, alternating
with eggplants and peppers, six or eight
of each of tho latter two. It Is useless to
try to gnjw either of tho melons or sweet
potatoes unless there Is a liberal admixture
of good sand, preferable put there by
nature, In the boII.
Various other modifications will suggest
themselves to tho Individual gardener In
line with the family likings and Its capacity
for certain vegetables.
GARDEN QUERIES ANSWERED
Spireas After Easter
O. F. G. Pplrcas and hydrangeas, ot the
raster plants, may vcrv easllv lm in tn
future use. As soon as their period of
Indoor bloom Is past they can bo removed
from the pot, the mntted roots (which will
then be found) soaked in water to un
tanglo them from their potbound condition
and the plants put Into tho ground, a gen
erous hole much larger than the original
pot being ready for their reception. Both
spireas and hydrangeas are likely to droop
and lose leaves and display withered flow
ers after being brought home. This condi
tion can be prevented by keeping water in
the saucers which can be placed under the
pots This means plenty of moisture from
tho bottom.

YES, a MONOPOLY in
HUDSON SUPER-SIX
BUT NOTE HOW WE EMPLOY IT
It is true, as some say, that the Super-Six motor consti
tutes a Hudson monopoly. We control it by patents. One
must buy a Hudson to get it. But note .how far the
Super-Six undersells many cars which it out-performs.
We must expect that every possible argument
will be used against the Super-Six.
The arguments used a year ago have all been
disproved and abandoned. Over 28,000 Super
Six owners have proved every suspicion baseless.
Now some say, "We also have an improved
Six." Some argue Eights and Twelves. And
some reflect on the Super-Six monopoly.
Mark the Hudson Value
But remember that Hudson has won by per
formance the pinnacle place in Motordorn.
The Super-Six motor has added 80 per cent, to
the car's efficiency.
It has proved an endurance which is yet beyond
measure probably a doubled endurance.
Against all other types, however costly, it has
won all the worth-while stock-car records.
And a year has been spent to make this car, in
every detad, worthy of its front-rank place.
Yet note how many rivals all without the
Super-Six motor-sell above the Hudson price.
Every buyer of the Hudson Super-Six gets a value
of performance which can't be matched.
Why Another Type ?
Then why consider another type of motor in
buying a high-grade car?
Not because of performance. The records of
the Super-Six prove it supreme in that.
Not because of endurance. The Super-Six
excelled-as high as 52 per cent.-in the ea ts
which prove that. "
Not because of smoothness. The whole
Super-Six supremacy comes through minimized
vibration.
Not because of anything. If any other motor
type were better, don't you know that Hudson
would adopt it? Rival types are not controlled
by patents.
The Friction Question'
The only question is, what motor best reduces
friction? For that is the aim of all.
It is motor friction that wastes power, that lim
its performance and that causes wear.
Friction was the limitation of the old-type Six.
hnction caused the trend toward Eights and
Twelves. And the solution of this problem ia
what stopped that trend. The Super-Six inven
tion, by reducing friction almost to nil. cave the
crown to a new-type Six.
It isn't speed, or power, or hill-climbing ability
wrnch makes the Super-Six supreme. It is Z
durance, due to lack of friction. That is what
w s? cconk If that is in
3uper-bix is important.
A New Gasoline Saver
The latest Hudsons have a new gasoline saver'
which adds greatly to their economy. They have
