Half-hardy . ' annuals should not be planted in the ground h until the middle of May. The best results i B i ;Wltl'l- -these latter varieties are obtained by! p 5 sowing the seeds under glass. either in boxes fin the window covered with a pane of glass, V : tin hot houses or in a cold frame, which i ievery amateur gardener should have. Fail- :ing this, it. is an easy matter to improvise Ila cold frame. A storm sash and some 5 boards for the frame are all the essentials lrequired. Sow all half-hardy annuals then, iin hot ,-house,` cold frame or in boxes in 'the`win`dow and get thrje`e_weeks". start of` K the season.` Seeds may be sown in a cold P `frame about April 15.` The hardy annuals may be sown out of doors__ in beds, where they are to remain, about the 15th of May. Some species` should be sown outdoors in _ iApril. They comprise such varieties as lsweet peas. morning glories. _callendula, lkochia. alyssum, corn flower and calliopsis. `( Sowing Seeds - e k -.

Seed sowing in permanent beds is . re `accomplished in the same way. but of course 3- it is not done until about May 15, with .s- some exceptions already noted. Some gard- ae eners. lacking a cold frame, plant all their annuals outdoors about May 15 in a tempor-| p. ary seed bed loca`ed along a south wall. and , or" protect them -from the sun. by a strip of` protecting cloth three feet wide and as gd .long as the bed.

Before removing seedlings, water them well so that the soil sticks to the tiny roots. Plant the small seedlings into the flats from 2 to 2-3 inches apart all ways and water them again.
