Week-end notes for women gardeners by Anna Scarlett and Barbara Tarver Gardeners who listened to and profited by the first group of broadcasts under this heading will be glad, now that spring is coming and young things are springing, to see its return to the microphone.
Elizabeth Cowell , who covered the Southern end of things last time, has handed over to Barbara Tarver , who works for the Ministry of Agriculture and is in charge of its exhibition allotment in Hyde Park, London.
These programmes are planned in dialogue form to give a topical interchange of views between North and South so that listeners in all parts of the country who are gardening under different seasonal conditions will find practical interest. The year is, of course, farther ahead in the South so that in some senses Northern listeners, through these broadcasts, may benefit by the experience of the Southerner.
