This Coupon Good Until April 15th Seed Expert Tells How To Start Plants Indoors Edna King Mandeville I have found that there's little reason to start most an nuals indoors. They do so well right in the garden that the risk of transplanting them usually offsets any theoretical gain from starting them in doors. Years ago many zinnias were started indoors, but re cently it has been found that better results are obtained from planting directly in the garden. Many other varieties, such as candytuft, clarkia, larkspur, lupines, mignonette, Girl Scout Day Camp Announced A program for coming day camp activities of Rogue Val ley Girl Scouts was discussed at a meeting of the day camp committee held recently at Girl Scout headquarters. . Day camp will be held June 13-16 and June 20-30 at the new camp site, Tomlin Forest in Little Switzerland, eight miles east of Medford. Each day's session will be from 9 a.m..to 2:30 p.m. Bus trans portation to and from the camp site will be provided for a small charge.. Volunteers are needed to put the camping site in order, and work will begin Saturday, April 2. Those wishing to help are asked to arrive at 10 ajn. and to take a lunch. Members of Medford Lions club have started work on a Girl Scout lodge at a . differ ent spot in Tomlin Forest, but the lodge will not be used for day camp. The day camp program will include archery, first aid training, badge work classes and Scout games. May 14 has been set as "preview" day. Attending the meeting were Mrs. Paul. Norris, committee chairman; Mrs. Robert LeRoy, district director; Mrsi A. Car rara, representative of St. Mary's neighborhood; Mrs. J. T. Morris, Roosevelt neigh borhood: Mrs. Hugh Shurtleff, Griffin Creek neighborhood. The next committee meet ing will be held at Mary's Casa, 537 ?!?ry street, Wed neday, April 20. Miss Ruth Kilbourn, exec utive of the Rogue Valley Girl Srout council represented the Southern Oregon district at the annual workshop of the Oregon section, American Camping association, at Gear- hart recently. Approximately 80 men and women represent ing 13 different agencies in terested in all phases of camp ing, attended the two-day meeting at Ocean House. Miss Kilbourn directed the group in a choral reading at the evening campfire, as well as conducting a session on creative dramatics in camp. She is first vice-president of the Southern Oregon district. The focus at all sessions, which touched on such sub jects as camp promotion, campcraft skills, trip - out camping, and public school camping, was on the teen ager. A panel of young peo ple, representing Boy and Girl Scouts, Campfire Girls, YMCA and YWCA, discussed what the teen-ager likes about organized camping, and what each felt should be empha sized to attract the older chil dren to camps. A progressive ly more challenging program was felt to be the main need.

Address... nasturtium, poppy, and sweet peas, also should be planted right where you want them to grow. Still, there are some varie ties t h a t transplant readily and safely, and if you want blossoms a little earlier, you might start these indoors. Among them are asters, cocks comb," petunia, phlox, salpi glossis, salvia, snapdragon, stocks, and verbana. Even with these varieties, though, it is necessary to have a good place for growing seedlings indoors. They must have suf ficient sunlight and tempera tures that are neither too high nor too low. Tall, weak plants produced in insufficient light and high temperatures are practically worthless, and to me nothing makes a more piti ful sight. Do not start your seeds in doors too early. Five or six weeks before transplanting is about right. Use a container capable of holding two to three inches of soil or planting medium -boxes, flats, or milk cartons cut lengthwise. There should be holes in the bottom of the containers for drainage. Tips On Soil Ordinary garden soil will be satisfactory, though if it is too heavy you may want to mix it with coarse sand. Many of the more expert gardeners prefer to use spaghnum moss or vermiculite since these ma terials are sterile and prevent the loss of seedlings due to "damping off." The soil or planting - medium should be about half an inch below the top of the container, and if spaghnum moss or vermicu lite is used it should be moist ened first and pressed down to avoid considerable shrinkage later. A ruler can be used to make rows , two inches apart across the container, and the seeds should then be planted as deep as the seed packet suggests. If you use pots, make small holes with the end of a match, spacing them about an inch apart. After you have sprinkled your seeds along the rows, or dropped one in each of your holes, use finely sift ed soil or planting medium to cover the seeds to the depth suggested on the packet. Very fine seeds such as petunias should be covered only slight ly or simply pressed lightly into the soil with your hand or a piece of board. After planting, water thor oughly but gently.. Better yet, set the entire container in a pan containing some water and let the water soak up through the bottom. A pane of glass placed over the contain er will keep moisture in and make frequent watering un necessary. Light is not neces sary until the seedlings be gin to develop. Then the con tainers should be placed in a sunny location and turned daily so that the seedlings will not constantly lean in one di rection toward the light. Since spaghnum moss and vermicu lite contain no natural plant food, they should be used with a weak fertilizer solu tion. Such a solution can be made from a soluble plant food according to the instruc tions on the container. Time to transplant is deter mined by two things - the growth of the seedlings and local weather conditions. Seedlings should never be transplanted before the true leaves have appeared. These are the second set of leaves produced and are generally of different shape than the first seed leaves. Most young plants are best transplanted when they are from one to two inch es tall. The ground should be warm and workable, and transplanting should be car ried out on a cloudy day or in the early evening. Unless the soil is quite damp, each plant should be watered as it is set out. I suggest you give the plants an extra boost at this time with a "starter" solution made from soluble plant food, to help prevent any serious setback due' to transplanting.'
