GETTING STARTED No that we are in the first month of Spring, it is high time to consider actual planting. Of course in many parts of Canada we will not be out- side with the rake under our arm for a little while yet, but we can start our garden indoors. Many of the regular annuals such as Petunias, Cormos, Zinnias, Snapdragon,, Mari- golds and others among the flowers are regularly started in this way as are also those vegetables like cab- bage, head lettuce, tomatoes and pep- pers, which require a longer growing season than we are usually blessed with outdoors and therefore receive their initial growth under glass. True, if it is not convenient for us to grow these things inside or if our wants are very small, it is probably best to secure a supply from seme nursery- man who we know will give us the varieties wanted. Sometimes an ar- rangement can be made with a neigh- bour who has a hot bed, we supply- ing the seed sof the varicties wanted - NORTH SIMCOE HOME AND SCHOOL: CLUB The regular meceting of the North Simcoe Home and School Club was held last Monday even- ing and heard a fine nrogram of musical numbers and a snlandid address delivered hy Dr. Lang- maid. Dr. Teangmaid took as the sub- ject of his address "The Co-r:2iation of diet in the care of Children's teeth." The delegates to the Home and School council of the O.E.A. appointed were: Mrs. Fisher and Mrs. Herb. Smith. The program was made up of a reading by Amy Harding; tions by the schocl oreh zi by Ernest Colhour garet Beamish, geicu= 11 ) LL was much enjoyed.

The seed is usually started in shallow flats or cigar or fish boxes in light, well drained soil either in a hot bed or some window exposed to the South, If the nights are cold it is advisable not to place too close to the glass unless there is.a storm win- dow. Not only can we grow the reg- ular bedding plants, such as those mentioned above, in this way but we can also put in almost any thing that will transplant, including cucumbers, melons and even a few early beets, carrots, sweet peas or corn which are started indoors, will be from two to six weeks ahead of those planted out- side. Moisten the soil and plant the seed in rows about an inch apart. Before thoroughly watering, cover the box with a piece of burlap or sacking which prevents the seeds from being washed out and also has- tens germination. This cover should be removed when sprouting starts. Up to this time the box can be kept in a warm dark. cellar, The plants will require transnlanting once or twice to deveiop strength and root growth and gradual cooling off be- fore being placed outside. If your requirements are large, make a hot bed, which is simply a glass covered three inch bed of good soil on a foundation of about eighteen inches of fresh, tightly packed horse man- ure. The manure should be allowed to heat up and cool down, the pro- cess taking about a week, before planting. Have the bed facing the South and the glass top sloping a few inches in the same direction so that the rain will run off. Water sparing- ly in cold weather and only on bright days." Ventilate a little by raising the sash and keep this open longer as the weather gets warm. Transplant at least once to a cold frame, which is simply the same as the hot bed without the manure, before setting plants in their permanent bed outside. GET SWEET PEAS IN EARLY Many of us have become discourag- ed in trying to grow sweet peas but Fine beautiful flower should never be | ziven up and will not be by the be- ginner or any one clse if a few simple rules are followed in handling it.

Often there is a week during March or early April when the soil in the warmer and better drained part of the garden becomes fit to plant. One can deterinine this time by taking a handful of earth and squeezing it lightly. If it crumbles it is safe to plant, but if it compacts in- to tight ball leave it alone for a few days. Sweet peas require'a rich, por- ous soil containing plenty or humus. It is a good plan to dig a trench about two feet deep. In the bottom put a layer of about a foot of well rotted manuré or vegetable mould such as rotting leaves. Pack this down and then put a laver of six in- ches of good garden soil. Plant the sweet peas about two inches deep and about five inches apart in this and gradually, as the plants grow, fill in the soil until we have the trench completely filled by about the first week in May, with the peas alwavs showing a half an inch above the carth, This will encourage deep and expansive root growth and give the plants that vital moisture and cogl foundation that are so neccessary, A light application of a good commer- cial fertilizer is also advisable once or twice during the spring months. Provide at least three feet, and bet- ter still, four or five with up to ten feet in British Columbia, of climbing support inn the form of strings, an old tennis net, brush or chicken wire, although the latter because it is li- able to heatup in the sun and its sharp edges are likely to cut the plants, is not the best to use.
