The single-row hedge has been
found to make for easier cultivation
and pruning, and to form better
shaped hedge when grown than the
one planted by the method of stag
gering plants in a double row.
Set the plants of the privet from
9 inches to l foot apart; those OF
taller, bushier growing varieties
about 18 inches apart. Plant decid-
uous hedges either now or in the
early spring before the buds open;
the evergreens may be planted in
September or before now growth
starts in spring.

The garden hedge may serve the
double purpose OF giving desired
privacy and also acting as a back
ground for flower displays. Like a
partition, it may also serve to sep
arate one garden room from an
other, shutting the food garden

somewhat thorny nature, and be
tall enough to shield one part of
the property from another. Lower
growing hedges are used for decora-
tive purposes only. to border a path
or walk or to emphasize the archi-
tectural lines of the house.
Before planting, prepare the soil
carefully. Dig a trench Ia feet
deep and twice as wide as the root

amount of well-rotted manure into

Little Is Gained
From Saving
Plant Seed
Cross.P ollinafion
Liable to Destroy
True Varieties

In a recent talk on the National
Farm and Home Hour broadcast DR.
Boswell gave some very interesting
points on the desirability of saving
vegetable seeds.
Most vegetable flowers are insect
pollinated and il you have two or
more varieties of vegetable grow
ing in your garden, or your neighbor
has other varieties growing on the
other side of the fence it is almost
certain that the seed you harvest
will not be true to variety. Wind
blown pollen produces crosses Just
the some as that carried by insects.
Some diseases are carried by seed
Beans are seldom worth saving since
blight and anthracnose, two de-
structive diseases of the bean, are
carried by the seed.
Tomato seed requires considerable
time and energy to save 1t, and
assuming that it would be true to
variety, it is doubtful If it is worth
the effort.
Many vegetables such as onions,
carrots, turnips, beets and parsnips,
do not produce their seed until the
second year, thus few gardeners will
find that it pays to grow them the
second season just for the few seeds
that he needs.
Sweet corn would seem to be the
exception to this list of don'ts. The
new hybrids that are being widely
advertised and grown, however, are
good only in the first generation.
The old -pollinated varities such
as golden bantam and country gen.
tleman, are worth saving if you have
no other varieties close by.
1t would seem then, that there is
little point in the home gardener
trying to save seed. The dangers of
cross pollination, spread of disease
time involved and the problem of
selecting suitable seed parents make
the job greater than most of us
should undertake.
AS a matter of fact, vegetable seed
production is highly specialized
type of farming and should be car
ried on only where the experience
and equipment are available-and
usually in areas where the climate is
favorable.

Bulbs for House
Take Place of
Cut Flowers
Some Require Soil
But Others Grop
Well i'm Water
By Laurence and Edna Blair

BY Laurence and Edna Blair
Just as the last of the garden
flowers are being harvested the
bulbs for forcing in the house begin
to appear on the market. They help
to lend beauty and cheer to the
home during the months when the
garden is dormant, and we'll repay
a little study and the care required
to grow them. Some must be
planted in soil in pots, but others
grow quite as we'll in water.
The first requisite for success, OF
course, is to get good bulbs. Always
buy from a reliable dealer, as many
which are purchased at bargain,
price may have been already forced
and SO are useless
The LATEST bulbs to grow indoors
are the paper-white narcissi. These
are on the market in September
and some Of them may be planted
as soon as they appear.
Arrange them in dish in pebbles
and water, and to insure sturdy TO-
liage keep them in a cool dark place
for two to three weeks before
bringing them into the light. Both
the Chinese sacred lilies and the
narcisslls Soleil dor should be given
the same treatment
The Roman hyacinth also grows
we'll in water, but the white ones
should be left in the dark a week
longer than the narcissi, while the
pink and blue ones need two week,
longer away from the light.
When using hyacinth glass Sc
lect only the largest size bulbs
Remove all dust, dirt and dried roo
particles from the bulb. Fill tht
glass until the water comes tt
within "a of an inch from the bulb
using rainwater If possible, or a
least placing a small piece of char.
coal in each glass. Put the bulb il
| place and set the glass where it i
cool and dark. Every two weeks ado
enough water to keep the level i
inch below the bulb. Do not bring
these bulbs into the light until the
flower buds have been completely
formed inside the leaves.
If the bulbs are to be saved fol-
out-of doors planting another veal
they must be left in water until the
foliage turns yellow then dried off
They will skip one season and bloom
| the next.

Evergreen HEDGES

This is a good time to set out
evergreen hedges, and 1t is perfectly
feasible to buy large plants in order
to have immediate results. However,
this is rather expensive, and 1t
is better to start young plants which
eventually will grow to make a
smoother, more symmetrical hedge
than tall plants. Plants or 21a feet
high are about the right size.
