THE SEATTLE = SS Fes & Rae es afternoon How to Prepare Back- Yard for Home Garden * BY WILLIAM R. BEATTIE Extension Horticulturist, Unit- ed States Department of Agriculture 8 The important factors In the reclaiming of an apparently hopeless backyard soll for gar den purposes are, first, drainage, second, the addition of something to lighten heavy clay soils, and third, the addition of manure. » It all of these can be administered at the begin- ning, there should be no difficulty In growing W. R. BEATTIE falrly good crops the first season, but persons hav ing a difficult problem in the reclamation of the soil of their backyards and other similar land on which gardens are to be grown, should not expect too much the first season, but make a definite plan covering & period of years. YARD MAY HAVE TO BE DRAINED The reclamation of backyard soils which are cold and wet and in need of drainage some times {s not an easy matter, but calls for a well defined pro- gram of improvement. It may be difficult to find a method for getting rid of the water that is to be drained out of the soil) It often happens, however, that a connection can be made to the sewer that drains the house and that takes care of the water from the roof of the dwelling. This connection ta often tn the form of a surface or sink drain in the backyard near the kitchen door. In case there {fs such an opening, lines of ordinary open- joint tiles may be laid at in tervals of overy seven or elght feet and at a depth of 18 to 30 inches, with a decided fall toward the point where they connect to the main drain, and theso will draw the surplus water from the soll, getting rid of it in the sewer. Another method of securing drainage, one that may be used where {t Is impossible to secure an outlet for tile drains, is to throw the soil up in beds, lear ing drainage furrows between the bods, these furrows empty: ing into a ditch at one end of the garden, and the water being carrisd to some lower level. Tho mere raising of the soll In beds, even tho there be no Girect outlet for the interven ing shallow ditches, will be of considerable help. Tho second problem in re claiming backyard solls will be to get the soll in better me chanical condition. This may be accomplished, first, by loosening It up in the fall of the year and leaving it thus exposed to the freezing and thawing of the winter montha, as the alternate frees ing and thawing breaks up the bumps and soll particles, APPLY COAL ASHES BETIME Another method, and one which can be used on extreme ly heavy clay sotls, is to apply two or three inches of coal ashes from which all the clink- ers and coarser materials have been sifted, and mixing this with the soll to a depth of six or seven Inches. An application of lime at the rate of 60 to 80 pounds on a space 20 x60 feet In size will also help to loosen the sofl. This should be done in the spring while the land Is being fitted for planting. Well decayed or composted stable manure fs by far the most important factor in im proving or reclaiming sotls of this character, A large two- horse wagon load applied to the soll of the ordinary backyard will not be any to much, and this may be put on at any time @uring the fall or spring, but should be well mixed with the soll iteelf. As time goes on and qrops are grown upon the backyard soil, the roots of these crops and organic matter, and then from time to time weeds, can be chopped fine and worked Into the soll to add organio matter, Tt Is also a good plan to sow tye, harley or some similar crop on the garden during the late summer and allow it to remain as a cover crop all winter, spading under the crop early In tho spring for the purpose of improving the soll.
