Some Suggestions in Regard to

A LIST OF USEFUL TOOLS

Local seedsmen say there has been
an unusually heavy demand Tor seed
in Topeka thus far this spring. Home
gardens are more numerous than ever
before in the capital city and there is
keen interest being shown in the con-
tests that are being held through the
grade schools.
A number of enterprising boys have
already earned money through the sale
of spring onions, and they expect to
beans, etc.
A large number of the boys who
expect to make gardening pay this
season are businesslike in their meth
DDS. They expect to keep an accurate
account of all expenses in connection
with their respective "city farms.
and of all money received through the
sale Of produce. Not a few of them
have made arrangements with Topeka
housewives and others who will pur-
chase vegetables from them regularly
Topeka boys engaged in the garden
contests have made as high as 800 in
a season, and some of the girls, too,
have made good money, although for
the most part the girls are more in
terested in flowers. Attractive bou-
ouets of sweet peas or other flowers
may readily be sold.
Tools for the Garden
It makes the work less difficult if
the home gardeners are equipped with
good tools for their work. In the ac-
comparing illustration are a few OF
the common tools that it would be
we'll to have for work in every garden
Here are some of the hand tools
that it is advisa BILE to have for use in
the garden: Spade, Spading fork, cut
steel rake, 10-foot measuring pole,
line for laying off rows, a standard
hoe, dibbles, a trowel, an assortment
of hano weeders, a watering can, a
wheel barrow and if the work is to be
done largely by hand the outfit should
include some form of wheel hoe, of
which there are number on the mar
ket- Of course it is not absolutely nee
essary to have all these tools, but they
are useful articles, and every home
gardener should have at least a few
of them
Work of Transplanting.
Work of transpIanting has begun.
Transplanting tends to produce uni
form stocky plants with a well devel-
oped root system. A cloudy or rainy
day should be chosen for transplant
ing where that is possible.

riculture expert has the following to

The seedlings may be transplanted to

to stand about two inches apart each

before setting in the open ground.
Hardening the Plants.
Plants grown in a house, hotbed.
or cold frame should be hardened off
before they are transplanted to the
garden This can be accomplished by
ventilation and exposure to outdoor
conditions during the day in good
weather If the plants are in hot
bed or cold frame the covers may be
removed during the day when the
weather is good and replaced toward
nightfan- After danger of frosts Is
past the covers may be left off at
night. By the time the plants are
large enough to be transplanted to the
garden they should be thoroughly ac-
customed to outdoor conditions. Such
plants usually Withstand the transfer
to the garden with little check and few
losses.
Before taking the plant from the
bed it should be thoroughly watered
and the water allowed to soak into
the ground. This will insure a portion

will prevent serious whiting or the
checking of growth. Take up the
plants with a trowel or spade and pack
them in boxes or baskets in which to
carry them to the field
Quick Operation Necessary.
The land should be in good condi-
ton and everything should be ready
for quick operation when planting
time arrives. Mark off the rows or
dig the holes for the plants just before
planting to prevent the drying of the
soil. If possible, set the plants on a
cloudy day or just before nightfall-
When the soil is very dry 1t is advisable
to use a little water in the hole. The
water should be applied when the hole
is partly filled with soil, and the moist
earth should then be covered with dry
soil to prevent baking. Plants should
be set a trif1e deeper in the garden
than they were in the plant bed. Pack
the soil thoroughly around the plants,
so as to avoid air spaces
Hundreds of local home or vacant
lot gardeners grow no tomato, cabbage
or other plants that require trans
planting. There are greenhouse men
in and near Topeka that make a bust
ness of growing these plants. They
may be had from these persons direct
or from seedsmen- T. L. s.
