Nursing the Baby Plants


 Nursing tho Baby Plants
 Mrs. Smith and Mrs Jones, each take off hatch of 12 chicks, both have taken good care of the mother and both have attained the same sue cess. Thirty days after the young chicks advent, one party has only four alive, the other 12. Such very common occurrence well illustrates similar happenings with the vege- table garden. The old hens did their work faithfully and the seed will generally do their reproduction into a growing organism in satisfactory manner; but like chickens the young plants must have the proper atten- ton when young, to produce strong, productive mature plants. If seed are given a fighting chance, they will produce the baby plants; but it's up to you to nurse and attend the plants in such a manner as to insure un- interrupted growth until maturity, ur until they can take care of their own destiny.
 cessful gardening Is the proper nursing of all plants when first born.
 Watering Hanging Baskets
 Nothing is more attractive or gives more pleasure, than a healthy, wig orous, growing arrangement of suit able plants in a hanging basket. Un- fortunately the majority of people do not manage the hanging basket prop erly to get the very best results. The chief trouble Is due to an inade- quate and irregular supply of water The very nature of the basket and it's exposure, makes 1t difficult toI maintain the degree of constant moisture needed. Pouring water on the basket Is bad practice, and dip- ping them or soaking in a tub of water is still worse. The thing to do Is take a tin cup or low tin can, punch small hole in the bottom and locate on soil surface of basket, hid by the plants. Keep this cup filled with waster as fast as it all leaks out It may be necessary to make more than one hole in the can to keep the soil damp thoroughly, but by observation, this can soon be reg ulated. You will be utterly astonished what influence a steady and uniform water supply exerts.
