Three of the moot popular vegetables tor (be family table are sweet corn.

' 'Hi*toes and eggplant.

Sweet corn, to be at It* best, should be eaten within a few hours after It Is Picked, for Its sugar content disappear* very rapidly after It la removed fro® the garden. For this reason and because of Its very general popularity. « Is an excellent vegetable to grow In the home garden. It should be planted on rich land and cultivated In the aame manner as field com. Beginning aa anon as the soil Is warm, successive planting* may be made every two or three weeks until late summer. Another method of prolonging the supply is to plant early,

medium and late varieties.

Another favorite vegetable la the tomato, which now forms one of the moat Important of our garden crop*. In the North, It Is very desirable to start the plants In a bonse or a hotbed. and to transplant them once or

On the other band, many growers believe that fresh stable manure should not be used for eggplant*, and that the land should not contain unfermented vegetable matter to any large extent. A dozen good, healthy plants should supply enough for the average-sized family throughout the season.
