March 28— Specialists in the United States De- partment of Agriculture have planned two specimen individua] gardens 5 by 16 1-2 feet for use in schools. One of these is for vegetables alone and the other for both vegetables and lowers.

In this it will be noted that tomatoes are used only as a succession or rota- tion crop following radishes and lettuce. The children should be allowed to do all the work of preparing the land as well as planting the seed and car- ing for the plants.
