home gardeners who do not own a
i hotbed and who can not readily bu;>
young plants can got much earliei
crops of tomatoes, cabbage, cauli
flower, peppers, egg plant, and lettuce
if they will start the seed for
their early gardens in seed boxes in
the hou&e. Early potatoes sometime*,
are forced in the same way. Seeds
so planted germinate and are ready
tor transplanting by the time it is
Isafe to vow the same kind of seed in
the open ground. When danger ot
frcst is over and the soil is drj
enough to work, therefore, the hom<
gardener starts his early garden with
* seedlings well above the surface

I stead of hurting, seems to help such
? plants develop a strong root system
R Garden enthusiasts should get a gooc
I deal of pleasure from this kind o'
I preliminary indoor gardening. They
I also can use boxes to hasten tlu
I* blooming period of many sorts o
flowers which stand transplanting.
Any sort of wooden box filled with
good soil answers the purpose. The
following directions for making seed
boxes and handling the plants havt
heen prepared by the Bureau of Plan
Industry and the Stales Relations
Service, United States Department ot
Agriculutre, for the guidance of the
canning and gardening clubs in tlu,
North a"d West.
Making a Seed Box.
Seeds of early tomatoes and cab
boge, as well as cauliflower and peppei,
should be planted in a seed box
in the house at once. The seed bo:~
should be 3 to 4 inches deep, 12 to 14
inches wide, and 20 to 24 inches long.
A layer of about 1 inch of gravel or
cinders should be placed in the bottom
of the box, then it should be filled
nearly full of rich garden soil, or soi'
1 enriched with decayed leaves or manure.
The rich soil beneath the famil;.
woodpile or around decaying logs if
splendid for this purpose. The soil
i should be pressed down firmly with a
K s nail piece of board and rows mad'
one-fourth to one-half inch deep am
2 inches apart cross wise of the box
The seed should be distributed 8 or 10
t: the inch in the rows and be cover
f j'l. The soil should be watered and
, the box set in a warm place in the
light, In the sunshine by a window
being best. Water enough must b?
[ given from time to time to cause tlv
reeds to germinate and grow thiiftily,
but not enough to leak through
f the box. If a piece of glass is used to
cover the box, it will hold the mois'
ture in the soil and hasten the germi}
notion of the seeds.
Take Out Surplus Plants.
When the plants are from an inch
to an inch and a half high, they
should be thinned to 1 or 2 inches
f \ apart in hte row so as to give them
space enough to make a strong
stocky growth. Tf it is desired to
keep the plants which are thinned out
they may be set 2 inches apart each
way in other boxes prepared as men
ticned for the seed. When the
weather becomes mild, the box of
plants should be set out of doors part
or' the time so that the plants will
"harden off" in preparation for trans
planning to the garden later. A good
watering should be given just before
the plants are taken out of the box
for transplanting so that a large bail
of earth will stick t0 the roots of each
one.

in a letter to Governor Ma. -j.

Believers in aorn ult.ival nrenwreil

throughout the South a pledge bind- ,
ing the signer to do his part to increase
the food supply of the country
in order to provide for the needs cf
our army and our cities. ^

That Marion county will furnish *
