Seed sowing is quite an art in itself, easiiy learned, but details must be observed for fiuli success. Fortun-, ately, seed is thse cheapest commod-' ity on the market, and probably more seed is wasted throughpo miethods or carelesa work irnsowlng than from any other reason. Know- ledge of correct methods ai seed sowing undoubtedly, would increasel the good reputation of seecsmen, who are ai to ofaten blansed for til success. Thse seed in its functian as thse ariginatar of plent life is a small body, often a very tiny ane, which contains a mlscrascopic plant called tIse embryo wth a quantity aififood, malter stored in thse seed and aften in tbe thickened f irst pair of leaves leaves known as seedleaves or coty- ledons wbich differ f ram the true leaves of tIse plant. whIich appear later. Sometimes thse stored f oods supply is mlssing in Beeds. Thse ~wIoe is surrounded by a more or less bard and thick sheil or coat- ing. Under proper conditions thse em- bryo escapes f ram Iis protecting cover and thse mature plant results. The escape Is called grmlinatlon. At thse start oi germ1nation.. the primary parts that aller beCame root and stem thrust through thse seed caver- lng, tIse root turning downward and stem upward. Moisture andf temper- ature are the twa ifactors that con- trol germination, and tbey are thse twa factors that must b? consider- -d in success!ul serd sowlng. In thse mechanlc-, ai 'ced sowlng, thse first point Wo observe is neyer Wo bury thie set too deeply in thse soil.

The Best Way to Spade Deep, Vertical Dgging Is Bet For All Soils There is much discussion among gardeners on the respective merits of the spade and the f orir, with a good many advcates of each. When you pool their advantages, bawever. you find bath have their taking points, depending upan the type of sli and the purpose of the digglng. Garden- ers may well have bath of them. The spade is the better toal for cleàn digging wbere the gardener wishes ta follaw straight lnes. It also wlll turn the soil more complet- ely and tharoughly and if thse trench and f iii method is used the sr>ade is indispensable, because thse sou wlll remain in thse spade ta becose into the waiting trench. A portion o! it is boun d ta fall th.raugh thse tines of the fork. Heavy sal is more easily pene- trated with a fork. But it s more easily turned with a spade so there is an argument on thse better tool right there. A spade in thse long run will te found the more efficient tool for digging heavy soil. Thse tines of thse forIs. due ta thse prying to lif t h-eavy sail. are very likely Wo be bent out of allgnment. For lighter soU thse spading fark is the easiest operat- ing tool. In spading a garden, tIse blade of the spade should be driven into tIse soul as nearly vertical as possible. The dloser to vertical tIse blade goes inta the soul, the deeper it can pen- etrate anld thse better thse job of dig- ging. It is customnary tW send the spade or fork into thse ground at a siant. Thse result is that while it may loak like a good job af digging when it is done, thse soul has not been turned for more than 6 Wo 8 inches. Soil needs deep digging ta let the air into it. This Iselps to make thse plant food more readily avallable for the growing plants. Thse roat of thse plant also must have a certain a- mount of air ta tlsrive. an CU wi ad vi gE m -ir ti gg ae Bowmanvîlle Nurseries J.
