To plant in direct" contact with newly placed fertilizer is to invite disaster. Chem- ical fertilizer will burn up the plants. Manure "placed right in the holes is more likelyto give `a set-back than a boost toward fruitfulness. The fertilizer `should be well worked into the soiladay the plants. This gives it` a chance to absorb the moisture it needs and also ensures sufficiently wide distribu- tion to make it available for the, roots as they spread. uuu LU make It I spread. Seedling-an mhi run 1638 DPBRKEEB. When plants have become drawn and leggy" it is good practice to. cut V back so as to leave only about three quarters or-two third "or thevoriglhal foliage. It is better to out back the end of several leaves rather than to ul` sxx nours oerore the work is start- ed. "rhis watering causes more soil to adhere to the roots when they are moved and also softens the soil so that there is less breaking of import- ant -trootiets. When seedlings have _been grown crowded. and it is difficult to separate the massesof roots, place the clumps in a pan of water for a few minutes so they will pull `apart with less breakage.

Air pock- ets planting is likely to take place when a ,dibhler is carelessly used. The dibbler is Jhrust into the soil to make a hole. an the piantlet is dropped in- to place. Then a. very desultory shove of the surface soil closes the hole- around the stalk or crown of the plant but the roots are left with little con- tact with the soil and mostly surround- [ed .by air. Vvithered roots and set- back plants will surely be the result.

There are three forms of plant mur- ' der commonly. `committed _in trans- . planting. They are (1) drowning the seedlings; (2) turning their toes up; ; and (3) plantingin an air pocket. _ Drowning most often consists of pud- dling in." that is. digging a hole, put-` L ting the plant in it and then filling it with water before the soileis replaced. I Roots have to breathe and there is no i more effective way of cutting off their air supply than this of forcing the soil into too close contact with them by planting in a mud hole. . Reasonable watering a.fter planting is"advisable unless -the soil is in ideal condition as to moisture supply. A 'l`urning- their toes up" is the result of just pure lazi- ness in not digging a hole deep enough or .big enough to accommodate the` plant. p e y Water Ground First It seems impossible'for some to re- member that roots are made to grow downward all the way--not downward` up curl at thn ands: M. .......u., Distance apart in bed or row May June June Jaye-July nday-June- June llay 6'! 18 12.

It is practically impossible to move a. plant from -one growing sit- uation to another without -breaking some of the rootlets; Where. clean breaks have been made-the root will send out a bunch of small rootlets. so thatwhere we had but one feeding root we get half a dozen or more.

Earthen flower pots are best for shading as they can be placed over the plants without fear of the first wandering breeze trotting `off with them. They can be wet on the outside and so give the plants perfect protection, Almost anything can be used for shading as long as the air has some chance to circulate around the plant. Paper bags (unless cut ' open at the top) are the least desirable things as they get as hntas a furnace inside, permitting no circulation of air.
