Electrical Inertia.

There is a curious experiment with
an electric discharge conducted round
q right-angled corner. The corner is
formed by bending sharply the con-
Quoting wire. A Photographic plate
incIosed In hard-rubber holder is
placed under the wire in such way
that the discharge will descend to-
ward It, then turn at a right angle and
pass horizontally above 1t.
1t is found that when negative
discharge passes down the wire to the
angle the electrical particles keep
straight on their way instead of turn
ing, penetrating the rubber cover and
affecting the inclOsed plate. But when
the discharge is positive, no such eff
feet is produced. The current ap-
parently turns the right-angled corner
without. so to speak, shooting off at
the bend.

FROM COLDFRAME
TO YOUR GARDEN
Plants Should Be Accustomed to
the Outside Conditions
Before Setting.
PROTECTION MAY Be NEEDED
Boxes or Small Boards Will Save From
Sun, Wind and Frost-Water Be-
fore TranspIanting-carry Con.
tainers to Place for Planting.

It 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
4 window box or hOtbed has been pro-
vided, and that q 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.
II plenty of south window space Is
available, the United States Depart
nent Of Agriculture advises that such
crops as snap beans, cucumbers, musk
melons, and even sweet Corn may be
started in flower pots, paper bands or
berry boxes filled with good soil, and
they will be Of considerable size by
the time the air Is warm enough to
plant them outdoors. Plants that
grow 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 accomplished
By gradually exposing them to the
open air during the warmer part OF
the day and later at night, care being
taken that they are not caught by a
sudden cold snap.
Hardening Early Plants.
When the plants are grown In boxes
or trays, the boxes may be carried into
the open each day and the plants al
lowed to become gradually accustomed
to the, outdoor conditions. If they are
In hotbed or coldframe, the sash or
other cover is lifted off during the day
and replaced at night. Later the COW
ering is left Off entirely; however, It
should be kept close at hand to be put
on at any time that the weather should
turn cold
Plants set in the open ground may
be protected from frost by turning
small boxes over them and covering
the boxes with little earth. Old
berry boxes are sometimes used for
this purpose, but should be covered
completely with soil, as the plants Will
freeze just as readily underneath the
exposed boxes as II left in the open
without any cover whatever. A good
method Of protecting plants is BY set
ting a common roofing single or
mall piece Of board at an angle over
each plant. These shingles can be set
On the side to protect the plants from
the sun during the daytime, or they
nay be placed on the opposite side In
order to protect the plants from the
wind and allow the sunshine I" reach
them.
In some cases gardeners have pro-
Nded 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 1t. The
glass should be so arranged that II
The weekly Iberian. (New Iberia, La.) 1894-1946, 1922-03-25

can be partially removed during the
warmer part of the day i'm order to
prevent the temperature becoming too
high inside the frame. These prOtec-
tors give good results when used over
hills Of cucumbers, muskmelons and
summer squashes, as well as over
plants Of sweet pepper, eggplant and
tomatoes.
Points to Remember.
There are few points in connection
with the transplanting Of homegrown
plants to the garden that are worthy
Of special attention. In the first place,
the plants to be transplanted should
be watered few hours before 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 containers. Pot
grown plants should be loosened by
inverting them gently and knocking
the edge Of the pot on something 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 knife and removed as the plants
are set. Where the plants are grown
in trays or in 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. II
made too soon, the soil will dry out
and cause the plants to wilt. Under
all circumstances, 1t pays to apply
little water around the roots of each
plant as 1t is set; this causes the soil
to form q close contact with the roots
Of the plant. After the water has
soaked into the soil, dry earth should
be filled in around the plant and
slightly firmed. Plants set In this
manner will invariably start without
whiting.
1t Is always a good idea to have .
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.

PLANTS REQUIRE MOISTURE

Plants take in moisture
through their small feeding root
lets and discharge it through the
surface of their leaves. AS q re-
suit of the breaking of the roots
in transplanting. the supply of
moisture is cut off and the plants
wilt. To prevent the willing of
the leaves. says the United
States Department of Agricul-
ture. water should be poured
around the roots before the dirt
is filled in; also the tops of the
plants should he shaded and pro-
tected from the wind for day
or two to reduce the evaporation
from the leaves.
