Tens of thousands throughout the country know the uses that are to be gained by cultivating an allotment-vegetables for the home and a bunch of flowers, health and occupation for the whole family. Between the spells of work on a long summer evening, what more delightful than to laze around while the children play or the wife makes tea ?
