ting plants with a peg is a surprise
to the novice. have had men peg
in 20 plants to the minute or 1900 in
an hour. Steel pegs are for sale, but
wooden one costs nothing and is far
better. As plants are of different
kinds and sizes, l find different sizes
and shapes of pegs necessary, 80 l
whittle the pegs to suit the kind OF
plants am setting.
The right use, and the rapid use,
OF the peg will gradually be learned
by practice. II the ground is too wet,
dirt will stick to the peg; II too dry,
will fall back into the hole when the
peg is removed. In either case, this
can be avoided by giving the peg a
twirl as II is removed from the hole.
Sometimes the hole is too small to
admit the plant. This can bo over
come by wabbling the peg while ma
king the hole,
When the plant is inserted, con-
tinues the writer in Farm and Home,
the dirt should be pressed firmly about
It with the peg. This is done by a
movement OF the wrist, in which the
peg is thrown from an upright posi-
tion to a sharp slant, so that while the
point of the peg has pressed the dirt
on the far side of the plant, the side
Of the peg, by semi-circu,ar move.
rent Of the hand, has pressed the
dirt on the right and on the side next
to you. This movement is not easily
learned.
To gain rapid movement practice
by counting four. When yJu say one.
pick up the plant with the left hand;
two, make the hole with the right;
three, insert plant with the left; four,
press the dirt about the plant with
the right. Begin very slowly and in.
crease the movement until you are
planting as fast as you can count.
You will be surprised how quickly you
attain this speed.
