The answer to this question is found in the sun, whose rays move north and south over the supfacs of the globe, bringing the changing temperatures and varying lengths of day which cause the four seasons. In the United States, planting time starts in Florida two months earlier than in Minne sota, so there is no single week which could be celebrated as the beginning of the outdoor garden season throughout the country. To wake up gardeners hroughout America, the Ameri can Horticultural Council is sponsoring an alarm clock sche dule that will begin sounding in the south and follow the sun as as it travels northward thawing out the ground, and releasing the energies which winter has kept locked up. On the basis of U. S. De partment of Agriculture re cords, the country is divided into zones, in each of which the average date of the last killing frost in spring is ap proximately the same. One month before this date is selected as the time for "Plant ing Time" in that zone. Seeds of hardy varieties may be sown; hardy plants may be trans planted; tender varieties may be started tinder protection, and! merchants of garden gooas i Mrs. Bessie Core Phone 4377 Belmar Barr of Omaha, Mr. and Mrs. .
