ThcWidk^ Harists' Review* 



1467 



operations in this direction are not al- 

 ready under way, no time should be lost 

 in beginning, so as to allow sufficient 

 time for the gradual exposure of the 

 plants before setting out time comes. 

 For this work the cold frame plays a 

 very important part. In the frames the 

 plants can be kept rather close for the 

 first few days after being taken from the 

 greenhouse. According as they get hard- 

 ened to it, the air can be gradually in- 

 creased, at first through the day and 

 later by leaving on air at night, until 

 the plants can be left entirely uncov- 

 ered. 



If fully exposed for a week previous 

 to the time of setting out, there will be 

 very little chance of the plants receiv- 

 ing any check at planting. On the other 

 hand, if they are taken out of the warm 

 greenhouse, where; they are sure to be 

 more or less soft, and exposed at once 

 to the outdoor atmosphere or set out 

 before proper hardening off, a check is 

 sure to occur from which it will take 

 the plants some time to recover. Es- 

 pecially is this the case with egg plants, 

 it takes them so long to recover lost 

 vigor. Tomatoes do not suffer quite as 

 much, though careless treatment would 

 give; them a considerable set-back and 

 make the plants look sickly for some 

 time. 



It sometimes happens that the weather 

 is warm enough through the greater part 

 of the month of May that all this precau- 

 tion is unnecessary, as the plants would 

 not suffer much if set outdoors at once 

 in sheltered situations, but, as we can- 

 not read the signs of the weather ahead 

 of time, nor tell when sudden fluctuations 

 of temperature may occur, it is always 

 best to be on the safe side and have the 

 plants where they can be readily covered 

 up on the arrival of a cold snap. 



If it is not convenient to use frames 

 for this purpose, some other means 

 should be devised whereby protection can 

 be given. A rough framework with some 

 sort of movable covering will answer the 

 purpose; even cheesecloth if nothing 

 stronger can be provided, will keep out 

 a good deal of cold, and unless the frost 

 is all the heavier is usuaJly sufficient to 

 protect any of this class of plants, after 

 the middle of May at least.

BocKFORD, III. — H. W. Buckbee had a 

 few Baby llamblers for Easter and 

 found them popular. He will work up a 

 very large stock for next season.
