Grow Your Plants
in Box or Hotbed
Gardeners Find 1t Pays to
Have Supply for Their
Own Use.

Prices of vegetables on the market
are always higher in the spring of the
year while certain of the most sought
after kinds are still scarce This is
especially true of the crops classed as
green's and salads, because everybody
seems to need more of this kind of
toOd in the spring, and, therefore
tnese vegetables find ready sale. The
nome gardener can save this much
by having his own crops coming on
early. To do this it may be necessary

Lettuce, radishes and beets can be
grown right in the frame while plants
IKE tomatoes, peppers and eggplant, are
0eing prepared for setting in the open
very little can be gained by starting
Deet plants in the hOtbed or coldframe.
however, some gardeners make fair
success Of growing early beet plants
In Ehe hotbed then transplanting them
TO the open ground. In the opinion
OF the United States Department Of
Agriculture, the important point, how
ever In having an early garden is to
nave thoroughly prepared the soil in
the fall so that 1t will dry out quickly
IN the spring and be in shape for plant
Ing just as soon as the frost is out of
the ground.
Among the crops that can be planted
extremely early in the open ground are
potatoes, peas, radlshes, beets, onions,
spinach and the so-called frostproof
cabbage plants, which after all. are
nothing more than ordinary cabbage {
