A Professor Who Makes Garden

A Professor Who Makes Garden

The most interesting garden on Geddes avenue is that of J. W. Glover, instructor in mathematics.

It is no ordinary garden, sown and weeded and ravished by the household, but is a thing of beauty laid out with care and skill and art. Tomatoes and cabbages, cucumbers and radishes grow far apace, boarded up in their individual beds, ten inches above the clean broad walks which separate one from the other. Each bed is made within a wooden frame constructed with mathematical accuracy into squares, rhomboids and parallelograms. Above the tomato patch is a strong two-story trellis, put together with the same noticeable skill.

Mr. Glover spends much of his non-class time among his vegetables, and the result of his labor of love is cabbage in head, and tomato plants two feet high.
