inch apart is close enough. Cover the seeds 
by leveling the soil once more. Then firm 
and water it. 
Shade is really necessary, and I prefer to 
put whitewashed sashes over the frame at 
this time, as a close atmosphere can be thus 
kept, which will save much watering. 
As soon as seed leaves commence to show 
above ground, air should be admitted grad- 
ually. It you do not have sashes, sufficient 
protection from the sun can be secured by 
lath screens. These are made six feet long, 
and as wide as the laths are long. A space 
as wide as a lath should be left between each 
two laths. 
As soon as the plants commence to crowd 
one another, which will be about three weeks 
after planting, transplant them to another 
position in the frame, or in the open where 
they are to grow. If in the frame, set them 
3 toginches apart. This wil allow sufficient

room for all the growth the plants will make 
this fall. In the spring they can be trans- 
ferred to their permanent place. 
I much prefer to have my perennials pass 
the first winter in the coldframe, for here I 
can still give the young plants the best of care. 
Have a pile of dry leaves at hand, to use 
as a winter covering for these plants, and 
when the ground once freezes hard, cover 
them two or three inches deep. A thin layer 
of salt hay, held in place by a few boards, 
or a few pine needles, will hold the leaves 
in place. 
There is a large list of plants which may be 
started in this way. For spring bedding 
the pansies and English daisies are always 
started now and wintered in a coldframe. 
It is really necessary to do so in order that 
the plants shall winter in good condition.
