fibrous, for that Is the kind OF
soil in which good root systems
are developed.
The time to start a cold frame
should be gagged partly by the
kinds OF plants to be grown and
partly by the location. Cabbage
plants normally take about six
weeks from seed until transplant
ing to the garden. If you want
to plant them in the garden early
in April, the seed should be soWn
in the cold frame or hotbed no
later than the first week in
March, Tomato plants for set
ting out in mid-April and later
should be started a little later,
but this will depend upon the
size Of the plants wanted. Even
in Washington these dates will
need to be varied, depending
upon the location. In the more
protected sections of the city,
plants may be put out from two
to four weeks earlier than in the
more outlying suburban areas.
A substitute for the hotbed
that has come into fairly general
use in recent years is the base
ment window frame. Briefly. it
is tight-ftting framework with
a glass top which may be placed
over one of the basement win
doWs facing the SOUTH, the
window being left open to provide
the necessary heat and ventila-
ton. Most of the work in han
ding the seed and plants may be
done within the basement. While
this arrangement is usually on a
small scale, it may be of any de-
sired size. In some cases an cleo
trical heating unit is used during
severe weather.

The Garden Notebook

There is q common tendency to
rake the lawn in the early spring,
removing the dead grass, as we'll
as sticks and stones 1t is a good
practice to remove the trash, but
the dead grass should be left as
source of plant food and as a
mulch. Raking the lawn in the
early spring tends to pull many of
the grass plants out Of the soil.
March 20 is ordinarily consid-
cred the date when soil and
weather may be counted upon to
permit spring planting of DOR
mant roses, shrubs and trees.
That is only three weeks away, so
get your orders off and make the
necessary preparations.

1t is too early to roll the lawn.

April. Then use a lightweight
roller and do not use it when the

Your best bet, if you run out
Of original ideas, is to deliberately
copy some Of the designers tricks.
Have a look at the new clothes
for spring and you will discover
any number Of "brainStOrmS"
that can be used to advantage in
your own wardrobe. Many of
the new buttons have matching
lapel pins, also offering you an
assembling idea for spring.
Be careful in your selection,
and don't oVerdo the idea when
you buy ornamental buttons to
vary last years fashions. You
can do job that will be chic and
in good taste if you choose these
bits of ornamentation with an eye
to their color, type and arrange
ment. Don't plaster a dress with
buttons in the hope it will look
new and different. Far better to
choose two or three good-looking
ones for the front closing, repeat
ing the trim on fabric handbag,
the back of a glove or the crown
of a hat.
Later in the summer, you can
make amusing bracelets and
necklaces to wear with your wash
cotton or linen frocks. Choose
some of the really amusing fruit
or flower or figurine buttons and
string them on bright-colored
cord or ribbon to accent or con-
trast the shade of your dress.

It's the Little Things That Count

Instead OF charms for bangle
bracelets, the newest hobby for
feminine collectors is known as
"make-over ideas From now
on, you will be on the lookout for
ways to make your wardrobe
seem new and different, with the
smallest possible outlay of cold,
hard cash. You will do tricky
things with scarfs and wells and
belts and you will find that there
really are clothes with mine
lives" II you know how to en-
courage them.
Recommended highly among
the make-over ideas are buttons.
Elaborate or simple, buttons can
be used in countless ways to give
new charm to your dresses. your
suits and even to many of your
accessories. The selection is
large and really fascinating, and
once you investigate you'll find
button counters almost as en-
crossing as those which display
leWelry. Miniature fruits and
flowers, jewel studded and plas-
tic buttons are yours for the
choosing. You'll have your own
preference when you see them;
but when you make your choice,
here are some of the ways in
which they may be used.
Patches are fashionable, and
may be more so as time goes by,
so you can Jump the gun on
the mode and combine patches
with buttons to give new life to
an old dress. On a shirtvaist

type, applique 3-inch patches of
gay, contrasting fabric over the
present button holes Then top
each patch with novelty button,
perhaps one of the tiny baskets
of fruit. Or slash the high neck
line of an old dress down to the
waist in a deep V and wear a
pastel dickey with it. Then trim
the dickey with stone studded
buttons in flower design. You
also can use buttons on the white
yoke of a dark dress, or outline
the collar, pockets and edges of
p jacket with bright-colored
French knots in wool and repeat
the same tone in decorative fas-
Jennings. This is particularly
useful idea for WORKOUT winter
jackets which will be useful over
simple basic frocks in the future.
Round necks on dresses can be
studded with pearl buttons, the
same pearls repeated in earrings.
You can sew buttons onto belts or
use them at the cuff of short
sleeves. Three quarter length
sleeves, too, can be ornamented
with a fresh white frill and nov
city buttons. Try using buttons
around the crown of last years

a sailor, and with the addition of
some fresh, crisp yelling you'll
feel as though you have a new

When dry such soils are almost

When the Towering season is
past they should be kept growing
until the weather is moderate,
then they may be planted in the
garden. Most of them are quite

addition to the shrub border

Now is good time to go over
the garden to reset and repair
plant markers that have been
"heaved" out of the soil by winter
freezing and thawing. If the
labels are illegible renew them.
A good, inexpensive marker may
be made from scraps of galva-
nized tin and No. 10 wire. Ordi-
nary drawing ink and a pen are
used for marking the names on
the galvanized tin. When dry

mer which makes the sowing of
seed in open ground rather I'M
satisfactory, but if we start them
in the cold frame, this difficulty
could be partially overcome.
AS last point, the cold frame
or hot bed makes a very desirable
place in which to store tender
varieties of chrysanthemums and
a few other of the more tender
perennlals over the winter.
Hotbeds used to be quite COM
mon, but with the scarcity of
animal manures, there has been
definite tendency to give them
up and to rely on a cold frame.
However, with the availability
of electrical heat, this tendency
has been reversed, Today We
find that many cold frames have
been converted to hotbeds. The
electrical cable buried under the
ground provides much more de-
pendable heat than did the ma
nures and hotbeds and can be
started earlier in the spring.
With manure as source of heat
there was often the difficulty of
too much heat on bright, sunny
days, with consequent injury to
the seedlings. The heat from
the electrical cable is controlled
by a thermostat and as the suns
warmth increases, that from the
cable is decreased.
1t is not much more work to
prepare a hotbed today with an
electric heat unit than it is to
prepare cold frame. The home
gardener is finding it more de-
Sirable to have a hotbed than
just a cold frame.
Hotbeds have one important

And Sew
Keep Needles Flying
By Mnrgaref No,ceH

This spring your needle, thread
and thimble will be a busy THO,
and II you are tho proud pos
SCISSOR Of a sewing machine you
will be an important parsonage
in your neighborhood. For we
are all going to sew for our
houses this year!
First OF all, there are new dish
towels to be hemmed and worn
sheets which must be turned.
The fragile curtains which are
worn at the window ledge are TO
be cut off and refinished to save
buying new ones for the kitchen.
Old-fashioned stuff. all OF this,
the sort Of thing grandmother
used to do, but we are beginning
to find out how smart she was.
A whole week of sewing might
be planned for just the making
over of household necessities.
You may not care for sheets
with a seam down the center, or
large reinforcement where they
are beginning to wear thin, but
sheets are going to be few and
far between, and even though
you may buy few new ones for
best you will be smart to mend
and save the old ones. put them
on an upper shelf where they
won't get too much use and be
able to reach for them In an
emergency.
That fresh, clean look that W.
like to bring about in our houses
each spring IS not necessarily a
matter of new possessions. 1t Is
often just different effect here
and there which makes all the
difference. The chintz draperies
and bedspreads that you used
last summer may be a bit faded
but still perfectly good. II you
are tired of them, try popping
them up with a new rufle or
two. Select crisp organdie In a
shade that does something for
the chintz, cut deep six or eight
inch bands and join all the
length together. Then run them
through the hemmer and the
gatherer on your machine to
make ruffles. When you place
these on the edges of your
chintz draperies you will find
that you do not need glass cur
talns underneath as the sheer
ruff1e gives the necessary soft
ness. Placed along the floor line
on the bedspread and used to
outline pillowcases they give a
perky effect that Is very fresh
and new looking. Plain colored
glazed chintz or sateen drap-
cries which are faded may be
dipped in dye bath to brighten
the color and be given a new
pickup" with sprigged or polka
dotted muslin ruff1es.
Not knowing how to sew Is no
excuse these days. There are
sewing classes in the various high
schools all over town. The sew
ing center In your neighborhood
has instruction courses in all
branches Of household and ward
robe sewing. This is going to be
a most valuable accomplishment
In the next few years. We may
not be quite as desperate as
Scarlet O'Hara khen she made
the devastating costume out Of
the portieres at Tara, but we are
certainly going to feel that all
good materials must be utilized
to avoid purchasing new ones.

rays will strike the plants as
possible.
Commercially built sash are
3 by 6 feet. This means that
the beds should be S feet wide.
That is a bit wide for the small
garden and is heavy for most
women to handle. 1t has always
seemed to me that by 10 foot
bed would fit my needs better
than one 6 by s.
Dirt should be mounded up
around the framework to serve as
insulat ton. Manure is good for
this purpose-if it is available.
The soil in the bed, if it is to be
used for starting seeds, need not
be rich, but if it is to be used
for growing transplanted seed
lings it should be fairly rich and

Cold Frames and H0tbeds Return to Favor
Need Not Be an EyeSore in Small Garden If Clt

Many home gardeners look up
on cold frame or a hotbed as a
piece Of luxury equipment so far
as their gardening is concerned.
They believe that it is not essen
tial and that the cost of one is
prohibitive. Some feel that it clut-
tiers up an already small yard and
Is more or less of an eyesore. 1t
is more convenient to stop At
greenhouse and get what few
plants are needed. The growing
OF plants is a somewhat tedious
task and the cost from COM
merclal growers is only nominal.
However, this is not quite a
complete picture. Cold frames
do not need to be an evesore es-
pecially if they are kept in more
or less continuous use as they
should be. Tucking them behind
a clump of shrubbery, so long as
1t does not cut off the sun. is a
desirable practice. The more
wind that can be turned away
from them the easier they are to
keep warm. With your own cold
frame or hotbed it is oftentlmes
possible to grow kinds and varl-
cites of plants that the CONNER
clal grower cannot afford to carry.
His business is such that he must
grow only those for which there
is general demand. BY growing
your own plants, there is less risk
of introducing diseases and pests.
A cold frame may be used to
good advantage in starting plants
for the fall garden. Greenhouse
men cannot afford to stock plants
for the few who plant fall gar
dens. Usually we can count on
drought periods during the sum-
