Real Meaning of Lif e
Found With Flowers
By EDNA MANDEVILLE
It's not rcnlly necessary to be
a flower gardener to get a thrill
from the first bloom of spring.
It's enough just to be a human
being. But you'll find that the
joys of springtime are immeas
urably increased by a garden
full of beautiful flowers.
It is here that life truly spar
kles, in a world full of Canter
bury bells and morning glories
and rose of heaven petunias. It
is here, in the glorious, health
ful sunshine of your own back
yard where there is nothing
more fearful than a snapdragon
that yen will find the real
meaning of life. So even if you've
never attempted a garden be
fore, try one this season. You'll
find the rewards are immeasur
able. Once you've really decided to
undertake a garden, the first
step is to mark off the bounda
ries. Working with a rectangle
as the basis of your design, use
a property boundary for the
back line and plan a gracefully
curving foreground border. You
will find this far more attractive
than a straight line, and it can
be simply achieved by laying a
garden hose in the correct posi-

lion before you begin your
spading.
Hose Is Guide
The hose will serve as a guide
for your spade work. Every
square inch of the garden should
be dug at least to the depth of
the spade. If fertilizer is used,
it should be thoroughly mixed
and worked well into the soil.
After completing the spade
work, the entire area should
be thoroughly raked.
Now you are ready for the
important job of choosing 4he
proper seeds for your garden.
The very fate of your flowers
depends on the quality of seeds
you choose, for no matter how
much experience you have or
how fertile your soil happens
to be, you cannot turn out beau
tiful flowers without superior
seeds.
Naturally, it's impossible to
judge the quality of seeds simply
by looking at them. The size,
formation, and color of your
flowers are all in the hands of
the seedsman whose product you
purchase. Thus I cannot stress
too much the importance of
choosing a really reputable seeds
man. One leading firm with
more than 75,000 dealers "triple
tests"' all of its seeds. The tests
are for germination, quality of
the flower and completeness of
mixtures. These rigid tests as
sure seeds of superior quality.
When To Plant
The first problem is just when
the seeds should be planted.
Since identical flower seeds are
sold everywhere from Maine to
California, the printed planting
instructions on the packets must
of necessity be general. How
ever, one seed firm has con
quered this problem in a unique
manner. On the backs of the
packets are maps showing just
when to plant the variety con
tained in the packet in any sec
tion of the U.S.A. Any beginning
gardener, and even an old hand,
can well use this type of informa
tion as a practical guide.
Seeds should be sown thinly
and evenly. Special care should
be taken not to plant them too
deeply. Small seeds like petunia,
portulaca and - salpiglossis need
not be covered at all, and many
varieties need only a little soil
over them. Here again it is best
to follow the careful instructions
on the back of the seed packet.
After you have pulverized the
soil, just sprinkle the very small
seeds over the surface. Press
them down with your hand or
a thin "board, and water through
a newspaper so that the force
of the water will not wash them
away. Larger seeds should be
planted to the depth indicated
on the package or to a depth
equal to twice the diameter of
the seed.
Transplanting
Although the vast majority of
flowers can be transplanted
vithout danger, many popular
varieties are best sown in their
permanent locations. Among
these are annual poppies, bache
lor's button, sweet pea, mignon
ette, candytuft, gypsophila, na
sturtium, sweet sultan and most
of the " annual vines such as
morning glory. .
To get an early start some
flower gardeners start varieties
that can be readily transplanted,
ia a sunny protected spot call
ed a seed bed. When started in

Foods and Nutrition
Instructor Explains
Use of Milk Solids
East Lansing. Mich. (U.R)
When you use dried milk solids
carefully check the amount
needed per cup of water, cau
tions Marcille Pidgeon, foods
and nutrition instructor at Mi
chigan State university.
Two new instant dry milk sol
ids appeared on the market last
year, along with the "older type"
of dry milk, and care must be
used in reconstituting the solids
with milk.
Miss Pidgeon explains the in
stant dried milk solids dissolve
much more quickly in cold wa
ter than the older types, result
ing in a slightly different baked
product.
Studies conducted in the' Mi
chigan State food and research
laboratory show soups, chow
ders and frozen desserts made
with older type milk solids and
the two new instant milk solids
are very similar.
Generally, double amounts of
dried milk solids were used
during tssts in an effort to step
up the nutritive value of a rec
ipe, but increases above that
were not desirable.
Baked products were less ten
der and had a poorer texture
when more than double the
amount of milk solids called for
in the recipe were used.
this manner the, rows may be
fairly close together since the
plants wall be transplanted to
their permanent locations in the
garden when they are quite
small.
Other flower gardeners prefer
to plant their flower seeds right
in their gardens where they want
the plants. Handled in this man
ner the need for transplanting is
eliminated. It is a good idea to
space the seeds pretty well so
that the seedlings will not be
too crowc'.ed. Even then it will
probably be necessary to "thin
out" some of the plants. Those
that are "thinned" can be trans
planted to a spot in the garden
where they can be used to good
advantage.
When transplanting, the best
time is when the true, mature
leaves appear on your plant. The
very first leaves, called "seed"
leaves, do not look anything like
mature leaves and should be ig
nored. But when the plant is
around two inches high the true
leaves will appear and then is
the time for transplanting.
The ideal weather for the job
is on a cloudy day after a long
rain. Of course, a good watering
may be substituted for the rain,
but it does not usually prove to
be as satisfactory, mainly be
cause the average gardener does
not have the time or patience
to water as thoroughly as Mother
Nature does. In any event, the
transplanting should never be
attempted under a hot sun. If
no cloudy days are available, at
least wait until the sun has gone
down.
When the seedlings first ap
pear, some flower gardeners
have difficulty in distinguishing
them from weeds. This is espe
cially true of unfamiliar varie
ties. One seed company has
found a solution to this prob
lem. On the backs of their pack
ets, along with the planting map
mentioned above, you will find
a picture of the seedlings which
will help you distinguish them
from weeds. As a matter of fact,
the backs of most seed packets
are filled with useful planting
information and should be noted
carefully.
Next week, we'll discuss trans
planting in greater detail, as
well as the correct methods of
spacing and watering your
plants.
