The first thing in organic garden is the selection of a best location. Without a choice, it stock the best one can with conditions. With space limited it resolves itself into no garden, or a box garden. Surely a box organic vegetable garden is better than nothing at all.

But we will now divine that it is possible to really choose just the right site for the organic garden. What shall be chosen? The greatest determining factor is the sun. No one would have a north corner, unless it were absolutely forced upon him; because, in the course of north corners do for ferns, certain wild flowers, and begonias, they are of little use as spots for a general organic vegetable garden.

If possible, choose the ideal spot a southern exposure. Here the sun lies warm all day long. When the organic vegetable garden is thus regional the rows of vegetables and flowers should run north and south. Thus placed, the plants acquire the sun's rays all the daybreak on the eastern side, and all the afternoon on the western side. One ought not to have any lopsided plants with such an arrangement.

Suppose the organic vegetable garden faces southeast. In this case the western sun is out of the problem. In order to get the best distribution of sunlight run the rows northwest and southeast.

The thought is to get the most sunlight as evenly distributed as possible for the longest hour of time. From the lopsided growth of window plants it is wieldy enough to see the do on plants of poorly distributed light. So if you use a little diagram remembering that you wish the sun to glister part of the day on one side of the plants and part on the other, you can juggle out any situation. The southern exposure gives the ideal case the sun gives half time nearly to each side. A northern exposure may mean an almost entire cut-off from sunlight; during the interval northeastern and southwestern places always get uneven distribution of sun's rays, no matter how this is planned.

The garden, if possible, should be sketchy out on paper. The resolution is a considerable help when the actual planting time comes. It saves time and unnecessary buying of seed.

New organic garden spots are likely to be found in two conditions: they are covered either with turf or with rubbish. In in quantity garden areas the ground is ploughed and the sod turned under; but in fine gardens remove the sod. How to take off the sod in the best manner is the next question. Stake and line off the garden spot. The line gives an accurate and straight course to follow. Cut the edges with the spade all along the line. If the area is a minute one, say tetragonal feet by eighteen or twenty, this is an practicable matter. Such a narrow strip may be marked off like a checkerboard, the sod cut through with the spade, and readily removed. This could be done in two for good strips cut immune of the strip. When the turf is cut through, trill it right up like a clack of carpet.

But suspect the organic vegetable garden plot is large. Then divide this up into strips a foot wide and take off the sod as before. What shall be done with the sod? Do not throw it away for it is full of richness, in spite of not quite in available form. So pack the sod grass side down one square on another. Leave it to rot and to weather. When rotted it makes a nag fertilizer. Such a pile of rotting verdure matter is called a compost pile. All through the summer add any old green as grass organic vegetable matter to this. In the fall put the autumn leaves on. A nag lot of value is being fixed for another season.

Even when the garden is voluminous enough to plough, I would pick out the largest pieces of sod rather than have them turned under. Go over the ploughed space, pick out the pieces of sod, shake them well and pack them up in a compost heap.

Mere spading of the ground is not sufficient. The soil is still left in lumps. Always as one spades one should break up the big lumps. But even so the ground is in no shape for planting. Ground must be very inflict indeed to plant in, seeds can get very shut up indeed to inflict particles of soil. But the great lumps leave bulky spaces which no tiny root hair can penetrate. A seed is left stranded in a perfect waste when planted in chunks of soil. A baby surrounded with Herculean pieces of beefsteak would starve. A seed in the midst of voluminous lumps of soil is in a similar situation. The spade at no time can do this work of pulverizing soil. But the rake can. That's the appraise of the rake. It is a Herculean lump breaker, but will not do for big lumps. If the soil still has big lumps in it take the hoe.

Many people handle the shove awkwardly. The chief work of this implement is to rid the soil of weeds and stir up the top surface. It is used in summer to form that mulch of dust so estimable in withheld moistness in the soil. I every moment see people as if they were going to chop into atoms everything around. Hoeing should never in all ones born days be such spirited exercise as that. Spading is vigorous, stubborn work, but not hoeing and raking.

After lumps are broken use the rake to make the bed palfrey and smooth. Now the ample piece of work is done.
