" In flowers it is a4Wlsable to use started plants available from aqy seed firm or greenhouse. Among the kinds that come in this way are cosmos, zinnias, petunias, marigglds, salpiglos- sis, nicotine and a host of others. When transplanting, flower buds should be pinched off and 'also un- wanted side stems, If a branching plant is desired a few laches should also he nipped off the top stem.' After stetting out plants, the ground about should be soaked with water and -kept soaked for a week or so. It is a good plan to add some commer- cial fertilizer dissolved in water and in the case of small" things :to pro- tect from the sun for a day or two. To Hide Dying Tulips Spring flowering bulbs such as tul- ips, hyacinths and daffodils should be left in the garden to mature after their period of bloom is over. At th's time, of course, they cease to be an ornament and many owners are tempted to pull the disfiguring tops.

How- ever, one can hide dying foliage with some well -started bushy annuals. Transplanted now they wiel be big en- ough to hide the Spring bulbs when the blooming period is over. Must Thin Thinning, as any experienced gar- dener will confirm, is most essential. Nature when left alone is ruthless. killing or crowding out the weaklings. Of the three to five thousand seedling pities that naturally start to grow on an acre of land, less 'than a hundred are permitted to reach full maturity three-quarters of a century later. Its gardening this stern but necessary example must be followed. If left too crowded, flowers become spindly end weak, easy prey for the first stiff wind, heavy rain or •hungry insect. Vegetables, too, get spindly or woody.
