Starting the Garden.

The growing. or better, starting of
early vegetables three to four weeks
ahead of time is simple. An old soap
DON, a little rich soil, a sunny window
corner, good seeds, and. still better.
care, and the thing is ACCOMPLISHED
You don't need any greenhouses
small table placed near the window in
the Kitchen or sitting-room will suffice
TO mold two boxes of the size of an
ordinary soap box, and in them enough
plants CT variety suited for the wants
of az average family can be grown.
Two soap boxes are sawed in half,
crosswise, SO that the sides are from
four to five inches high. Then the box
is filled with rich garden soil, well
mixed with about one-quarter of fine,
wcll-rotted manure, and is ready now
to receive the seed. Good seed is of
Importance. and only reliable seed men
should be patronized. Otherwise the
care and labor will be lost. After the
boxes are filled. the soil should be well
Watered with luke warm water and the
seeds planted while the soil is still
moist. Little burrows are drawn length
wise with piece of wood about two
inches apart, the seed placed in them SO
they do not ouch one another. The fur
rows are then lightly covered with soil.
and the boxes are placed on a small
table close to a window having the best
sun exposure. In homes where only
stoves are used, the kitchen is the best
place, as the fire in the range is kept
up generally day and night; in houses
where steam or hot air is used for heat
ing purposes, any convenient room can
be assigned, provided the temperature
on cold nights does not fall too low.
The end of February, even the first
week in March, is time enough to sow
the seeds. Too early planting will adj
vance some vegetables too far for sue
cessful replanting. besides it will weak
en- them if kept too long in the atmos-
phere of living-room. AS to the kind
of seeds to be planted individual tastes
have to be consulted. Head lettuce,
also tomatoes, early cabbage, eggplant,
cauliflowcr. beets. kohlrabi, parsley and
the like can be started in this way and
safely transplanted later on. After the
plants are well up they are thinned out
from one-fourth to one-half an inch
apart leaving the strongest plants and
removing the crowded weaklings. Let
tuce, cabbage, caulifioWer, kohlrabl,
also parsley. can be transplanted in the
open if two distinct leaves are grown
on the plant. Tomatoes, beets,' egg
plants and celery should be transplant
ed first in new boxes. an inch apart,
giving them more space in which to de-
velop. Before they are set out in the
open they will do better if their tops
arc cut off. Even sweet corn, lima
beans. cantaloupe and watermelon can

but different principle in sowing has
to be followed. Good, solid sod is GU,

put IT, appearance so the members saw
that home talent must be brought to
the front this came in the shape of
eight applications for membership. The
worthy lecturer called on Bro. Soper
to express his views as to what the
farmer should do during the month of
March to further the work on the
farm, later on when the seasons work
Is pressing. Bro. Soper opened the
question by saying that the wood pile
should receive the first attention, then
there were the tools to put in order,
painting to lie done. repairs 10 he made

in order that the public might mingle
with the patrons during the exercises
Of the afternoon.
The grange choir gave a selection for
the opening. The following question
was then taken up: Are the production
of eggs more profitable than the pro-
duction OF poultry meat or which Is the
most profitable:' This question was
opened by Mrs. NJ. F. Norcross followed
by q paper by Mrs. G. w. Sedgley
which was very interesting and much
appreciated by all present. This paper
showed the production of eggs to be the
most profitable by the many figures
given Many patrons took part in the
discussion of this question showing that
the hen is an Indispensable adjunct to
profitable farm life.
Bro. Clifford of keadfield Grange and
Bro. Reed of Mt. Vernon Grange gave
some very stirring remarks for tho
good of the order.
it was voted to invite Prof. Hutchins
to meet with the grange in the near
future to discuss the determination OF

pests.
A special meeting will be called ana

This was one of the most interesting
and instructive meetings the grange
has held for long time and one long
to be remembered.
