Chapter of F. F. A. To
Raise Early Plants

Accident Chapter of Future FARM
ers Of America will operate their hot
beds and cold-frames again this year
and will be able to supply early plants
as follows: Cabbage, Early Jersey
Wakefield, Copenhagen Market and
Golden Acre; late cabbage, Danish
Roundhead. Tomatoes, Penn State
Earlianna, Break O. Day and Mar
globe. Celery, Easy Bleaching and
Giant Pascal. Peppers, Ruby King,
Burpee's Sunnybrook and Worldbeat-
err. Caulifower, Burpee's Fordhook.
The seeds for these plants are sown
in flats, which are placed in the en-
larged brick hot-bed. At the prope.'
time the seedlings are transplanted in
flats, thus insuring better root de-
velopment and more thrifty plants.
When the plants are strong enough
to be outside they are put in cold
frames to be hardened to the weather.
By the time the plants should be set
in the field they are we'll rooted and
hardened to outside weather condi-
tions. The plants that have been sold
in previous years have proven strong
and vigorous.
The hot-bed is now in operation and
the plants will be ready for sale as
soon as demand is made for them.
These Future Farmers have carried
on this project for several years.

MT. LAKE PARK

We could not find the poem that we
wanted to head this column, but may
be some of you readers can remember
it. All we can think Of is "Daffydown
dilly came up in the cold" Well, these
last few days we have felt right sorry
for that gallant little flower Last
week so many of them were in bloom
and others budding, and now the snow
has buried them. But they do have a
way of ''perking up, and we believe
they will weather this, our heaviest
snow of all the year, and when the
warm sunshine comes again we shall
not feel sad, for theyia brave little
flowers. 49,
Last Saturday we took trip up to
the hatchery. Old-timers will recall
that this was once one of the "high
Spots" for in those days it was the
new annex to the Loeh Lynn Hotel, a
well known summer hotel. Never
thought we should see a chicken hatch
cry there, but we did, and what one.
Thousands of chickens of all sizes and
all ages-one of the finest equipped
places of it's kind we have ever seen;
and the eggs, buckets, barrels, boxes
and all other containers, simply full to
the top. Blair Simmons is the owner
and after a survey of all of the extra
buildings and the work done there we
could not help but wonder where in
the world he ever finds time to do it
all The only familiar thing that came
TO our mind was the"noise. AS we re-
member, there always was considera-
Bile noise round there, and some of it
was rather "cack1ing."
Anyhow, it's worth while to visit,
and you will be surprised.
