The next thing to be done is to
water the pots or boxes, using water

the seeds are very choice place a piece
or glass over the pot and shade the
pots or boxes from the hot sun. It
is fatal to allow the soil in the pots

nothing Is SO bad for the small seed

dry. Therefore an even degree of

When the young Seeding plants are
sufficiently advanced, usually when
the true or character leaf appears be

should be transplanted to a frame or
a warm border in the garden. In
transplanting place the seedlings from
three to four inches apart, according
to the vigor of the plants The plants
may be left in this position until the
ground Is workable the following
Spring. A light dressing of leaves or
straw is beneficial to the plants If

die. Seeds of all ANIMALS should be
collected as soon as ripe. When dry
the seeds should be placed In paper
sacks and kept in moderately cool,
dry room or Office until the following
Spring, when they should be sown.
In selecting seed from any plants,
whether hardy herbaceous perennlals
or ANIMALS, be careful to save the
seed from the best and most vigorous
plants. This is very important. IN
private gardens seeds may be soWn IN
pots, pans or shallow boxes. Inev
are easier to manage than If SoWn IN
the open ground. The rarer SEEDS
should always be sown in pots. Inc
pot or pan must be clean. Put drain.
age in the bottom in the shape OF
broken pieces of flower pots, known
to the gardeners as crooks. over TINS
place a layer of moss to keep the
drainage open and then fill up with
soil. Generally speaking, the sou
used in which to SOW seed should be
lighter in texture than that which the
plant requires when grown. by
lighter soil is meant a soil which con.
tains more sand than the plant itself
requires.
The soil should be we'll mixed up,
broken into as fine pieces as possible
and then passed through a sieve with
one-quarter-inch mesh. The coarser
particles from the screen may be used
in the bottom of the pots or boxes,
over which the fine soil will be placed.
Press the soil down firmly with the
fingers and smooth the top with any
thing fiat; the bottom of another pot
is an excellent thing to use. The
surface of the soil should be one-half
inch below the rim Of the pot.
1t is not easy to sow seed evenly
over the surface Of a pot. A simple
and a very satisfactory method, how
ever, is to take a piece Of white writ
ing paper and fold it in the middle
and on it place the contents of the
packet of seed. The paper is held in
the left hand over the pot and gently
tapped with a pencil or a wooden label.
The seeds then trickle out slowly. The
great point is to sow evenly and
thinly. Cover the seeds lightly by
scattering light dressing of screen

PLANT
PROPAGATION

Plants may be propagated-that is
Increased in numbers-in various
ways. e.g., by seeds, cuttings (com
monty known to the amateur as slips
! division, layering, budding and graft
ing.
Propagation by seeds is the sim
plest method. and it is the method
which l will discuss In this article. 1t
IS easy to wait until the seed is ripe
on almost every garden plant, such as
. u particularly fine larkspur, collect it.
SOW 1t and then wait for the result
In the course of IL short time the
seeding will appear and after a period
of several weeks it Will attain a flow
ering stage. The great majority of
the hardy perennial flowers may be
propagated In this manner. a large
portion of the plants we find are
often disappointing; their flowers are
inferior to those of the parent plant
from which the seed was taken. OF
course, this is not the case with all
plants. The inferiority of the flowers
. is largely due to croSS-fertiliZation by
insects.
A considerable number of plants,

quently yield offsprings which will not
come true TO color and size. Column
bines. larkspurs, campanulas and
scotch plnkS are examples or plants
which as Il rule do not come true TO
type from seed. on the other hand,
some new color or variation in the
habit of growth Of the plant may be
Forthcoming.
It must be remembered that seeds
of hardy herbaceous perennials usu-
ally take one year or upward to at
tain a towering size. Therefore, it is
best to SOW seeds of this class Of
plants from June until September.
Seeds of ANIMALS, such as aSters,
falsams, zinnias, annual larkspurs,
Candytuft. sweet peas, etc, should be
planted early in the Spring. These

Pruning reduces the total amount of
fruit, but that gathered will be earlier

many gardens, and II new paintings

Pull out the old pea vines. Dead
plants destroy the neat appearance OF
the garden. Furthermore, the ground
devoted to peas can be profitably
utilized for sweet corn, late tomatoes,
beans and many other crops.
Yellow, weak-growing vegetable
and flower plants may be quickly
restored to vigor by working little
nitrate of soda into the soil about the
plant. Or, If the soil is very dry,
