Information Given
On Seeding And
Transplanting

Tie following information re-
garding seeding and transplanting
is from the office of Leroy M.
Gavette, assistant county agricul-
tural agent:
SEEDING
Vegetable seeds may be planted
in dry seed bed and Irrigated up"
or planted in a moist seed bed. In
most cases the latter method is
preferred. In the event the dry
seedbed Is used, care should be
taken not to flood it because the
soil will bake or crustover, making
it very hard and sometimes inn
possible for the tiny seedlings to
break through. The correct depth
of planting the seeds is overlooked
in frequent cases. AS a general
rule. small seeds are planted shall
lower than larger seeds. Some of
the larger seeds; such as melon,
corn, bean and cucumber, ETC., may
be planted 1k to 2 inches deep
while small seeds suck as radish,
tomato and pepper, should not be
covered deeper than one half inch.
1t is best to mark a straight mar
row trench the proper depth in
which the seed is to be sown. After
planting the seed, cover them with
fine pulverized soil and firm gently
with the hand. Do not pack the
soil but firm enough to insure close
contact between the soil and the
seed with the air pockets elimin-

shingle pushed into the ground {
an angle on the south side of the
plant which will also protect II
from tie SUM- Other methods tha
are successful can be used, such a
placing paper cones around tn
plant or the dropping of the paper
over the plant, tent fashion, with
dirt piled on the ends to hold ii
down. At the present time, plants
that can be transplanred into the
garden are tomato, eggplant, bel
and chile pepper and sweet potato.

youth out to the hillside corn patch
and told him, when you've time

TRANSIT -ANTING

The main problem in transplant
ing is to see that the new trans
plants have been hardened off be-
fore the direct sunlight is allowed
TO hit them. Also important. the
plant roots should never be allowed
to become dry before setting them
into the soil. AS soon as they are
set into the soil they should be
watered. Tie regular commercial

because of the thought secondary
reaction might occur.
