• Another Strike Against Smoking
Two scientists at the Southwest Research Institute in
San Antonio, Texas, Drs. Donald E. Johnson and John W.
Rhoeades, report detecting the prcsence of N -nitrosamines
in cigarette-smoke condensate. N-nitrosamines are known
carcinogens - cancer producing agents. They have long
been suspected components of tobacco smoke, but this
latest research is the first exact determination of their
presence.
This latest finding is one more cea-
much. Instead, sow seeds in intcrval plant ings about 3 to
t1
weeks apart. The accompanying chart, produced by the
Ambassador College Agriculture Department in Big Sandy,
Texas, offers infinite possibilities for multiple plantings.
Also givc your small child a special treat. Mark off a
one-foot sguarc garden plot and tag his or her namc on it.
Let him feel rcsponsible for thc p lot, but help him prepare
it, plant it, and reap its small harvest. He will literally spar–
kle with excitcment over "his accomplishment." l t is also
a good vehiclc for nature lcssons and famil y togethcrncss.
son \vhy - if you have oot already
done so - you should write for our
free booklct,
Yo1t Can Q1tit Smoking.
You can kick tbc habit.
VEGETABLE GARDEN PLANTING TABLE
• Planting a Vegetable
Garden: Part 111
If
you have followed the February
and March-Apri l "What You Can Do"
section, you are now rcady to secd your
vegetable patch - in the northern
hemisphere, that is.
First, decide which vegetables \\'Ould
be
most beneficia! for your particular
needs. ( 36 common products of the
vegetable garden are listed on the
chart at the right.) The seeds can be
purchased in most supermarkets, de–
partment stores, nursery and gardcn
shops, and seed stores.
Seeds are generally inexpensive, but
guality seeds (pure strain, not hybrids)
are worth the slightly higher pricc you
may pay for thcm.
Before planting, be sure the soil is
in a loose, crumbly condition (sec the
March-April
PLAIN
TRUTH for further
dctails ) .
If
possible, run your rows
north and south. This will ensurc egua!
amounts of sun on both sides.
Carefully read the instructions on
the back of the secd envelope. Don't
sow more in one seasoo than you can
conveniently use or store away at har–
vest time. Most beginners plant too
