Transplnnting Vegetable Plants.

The biologist of the Florida expert
ment station calls attention to the mis-
take which some gardeners make of rs

planting that have been growing thickly
together and consequently have but
comparatively small portion of root To
many it seems a loss Of time to trans
plant these vegetables when young so as

shey think they car gain time by using
these longer and slender plants simply
because they happen to seem to be large

may not be half the size. 1t is anything
