ALSIKE AND SWEET CLOVERS
In Cases Where It Is Not Practicable

There are many farms on which 1t

often fails. Alsike will not yield as

which red clover would fail 1t will
stand a "sour" soil better than red
clover will.
Sweet clover will not thrive with
out lime. There is no use trying it.
But given lime it will grow on poorer
land than any other crop to improve
such land. Sweet clover can he ham

SETTING PLANTS
IN OPEN GROUND
Tomatoes, Peppers, Early Cab
bage and Other Crops May
Be Started Indoors.
PROVIDE SOME PROTECTION
Old Berry Boxes or Common Roofing
Shingles May Be Used-SmaII
Frames With Glass Tops Are
Used by Some Gardeners.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
1t is assumed that the wide-awake
gardener has been busy long before
the weather is warm enough to sow
any seeds in the open ground; that a
window box or hOtbed has been pro-
vided, and that supply of plants of
tomatoes, peppers, early cabbage and
eggplant are under way to set in the
garden as soon as danger of frost is
past.
If plenty of indoor space is avail
able, such crops as snap beans, Gu
cumberS, cantaloupes and even sweet
corn may be started in flower pots,
paper bands or berry boxes filled with
good soil, and they will be of consid-
cradle size by the time the air is warm
enough to plant them outdoors. Plants
that are grown in the house or in the
hotbed must be hardened or adapted
to outdoor conditions before they are
set in the open ground. This is ac-
complished by gradually exposing
them 10 the open air during the warm
er part of the day and later at night
care being taken that they are not
caught by sudden cold snap.
Hardening Early Plants.
Where the plants are grown in boxes
or trays, the boxes may be carried
into the open each day and the plants
allowed to become gradually accus-
toned TO the outdoor conditions. If
they are in hOtbed or cOldframe, the
sash or other cover is lifted off dur
Ing the day and replaced at night.
Later the covering is left off entirely !;
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1920-07-01

without any cover whatever. A good
method OF protecting plants is by SET
ting common roofing single or a
small piece of board at an angle oven
each plant. These shingles can be set
on the side to protect the plant from
the sun during the daytime, or they
may be placed on the opposite side
in order to protect the plants from
the wind and allow the sunshine to
reach them.
Small Frames Protect.
In some cases gardeners have pro-
vided small frames, on the top of
which are fitted single panes of glass,
and one of these frames is set over
each plant or hill to protect it. The
glass should be so arranged that it can
be partially removed during the warnl-
er part of the day in order to prevent
the temperature becoming too high in
side the frame. These protectors give
good results when used over hills of
cucumbers, cantaloupes and summer
squaSheS as well as over plants of
sweet peppers, eggplant and tomatoes.
Points to Remember.

ton with the transplanting of house

PLANT ENSlLAGE CORN EARLY
Crop for Dairy Cows Is Greatly I'm.
proved by Being Planted Before
Smaller Variety.

In many of the Northern states en-
silage is the chief support of the
diaries, and two kinds of corn are
grown-a small variety for grain and
a large variety for ensilage. That's
right.
In many of these states the ensilage
variety is not planted till after the
planting OF the small variety is fin
ished. That's wrong
The ensilage crop is usually wonder
fully improved by being planted two
or three weeks earlier than the small
variety. BY being planted before the
days become long the ensilage varieties
form much more grain and mature 1t
very much better.--United States De-
partment of Agriculture.

grown plants to the garden that are
worthy Of special attention. In the
first place, the plants to be transplant
ed should be watered few hours be-
fore they are to be handled; this will
cause the dirt to adhere to the roots
and give them a better start when
they are planted out. If the plants
are grown in flower pots, in paper
bands or berry boxes, they should be
carried to the garden in their con-
tainers. Pot-grown plants should be
loosened by inverting them and gently
knocking the edge of the pot on some
thing solid. The plants then are set
with the ball of earth adhering to
their roots.
If the plants have been grown in pa-
per bands or berry boxes. the sides of
the bands or boxes should be slit with
a knife and removed as the plants are
set. Where the plants are grown In
trays or in a hOtbed, knife should be
run between the rows, cutting the
earth in both directions, and each
plant lifted with a cube of earth at
tached to its roots.
Use Fresh burrows.
The holes or burrows in which the
plants are set should not be made i'm
til ready to transplant the plants. If
made too soon the soil will dry out
and cause the plants to wilt. Under
all circumstances, it pays to apply a
little water around the roots of each
plant as it is set; this causes the soil
TO form a close contact with the roots
of the plant. After the water has
soaked into the soil, dry earth should
be filed in around the plant and slight
ly firmed. Plants set in this manner
will invariably start without willing.
1t is always good idea to have a
few more plants than are required for
filling the space in the garden, in or
der to replace any that die or are de-
stroyed by insects.

LIME CONTROLS CLUB ROOT
Required to Completely Destroy
the Disease.

Club root of cabbage may be con.
trolled by heavy applications Of lime
on the infected soil. From 10 to 80
bushels of limestone per acre are re-
quired to completely destroy the dis
ease. Club root also attacks cauli-
flower, particularly when grown on
soil infected with the club root of
cabbage. The lime applied to con-
troll the disease is also effective in
sweetening the soil, thus resulting In

URGE A FIGHT ON P|TTSbURG PLUS
 STEEL EASING PLAN
Civic Association Receives Communication From Western Association of
 Rolled Steel Consumers

Comm unications have been received by c, L. Harold, secretary manager Of the
 Civic Association, from the Western As-
 sociation of Rolled Steel Consumers, urg-
 ing that the fight against the Pitts
 burg plus steel basng plan be renewed
 in view of the proposed % per cent in
 crease in freight rates.
 The secretary of the Western Asso-
 citation tells of plans to carry on the
 fight against the practice through edl-
 torials in periodicals and articles in
 newspapers, as well as directly to the
 federal trade commission. It has been
 suggested that it be brought to the at
 tention of the interstate commerce com.
 mission.
 The Birmingham Civic Association, in
 connection with civic bodies from all
 parts of the country, filed petitions with
 the federal trade commission last De- cember, in which complaint was made
 against the "Pittsburg plus system,
 which makes the prices on steel deliv- cred from any point the same as the
 regular price of steel plus the freight
 rate from Pittsburg, whether the steel is shipped from Pittsburg or not. This gives the Pittsburg steel fabrications ad- vantage over steel fabrications in other parts of the country.
 A new phase of the question is being developed with the proposed increase in freight rates which includes steel shipped from the factory. This it is claimed, will add to the price of steel in sec tons removed from Pittsburg and fur ther discriminate against steel mills and manufacturers in other districts, espe- cially in the south and west
 A petition is being prepared by the Southern Association of Rolled Steel Consumers which will be filed before the federal trade commission at an early date. The petition asks that the com mission hurry the decision on the ques. ton, to state if it has the power to act on such a question. Every days delay, the petition states, is costing the southern and western manufacturers thousands of dollars and. with the in- crease in freight rates, will add to their burden.
 The Southern and Western Association of Rolled Steel Manufacturers are plan ming to take the matter directly to Con- gress if the federal trade commission decides that the matter is not one for
 them to 0ecide.
