For the Prize Contest:

In January I bought six dollars worth of Burpee seeds. I planted Tomatoes, Peppers, Cabbage, Egg-plant, Cucumbers, Cantaloupes and Squash in hot-beds for early market. I sold seventy dollars worth of the plants to neighbors.

Later I planted Turnips, Beans, Peas, Okra, Butter-beans and Corn. Late frosts killed some plants and the drouth and hot winds damaged my garden very much.

I have sold three hundred and seventy five dollars worth of vegatables and I have lots more to sell. I have served three or more vegatables on my table twice daily and canned one hundred and forty seven quarts.

Mrs. Fred Reutz, Mabelvale, Ark.
