Use sprinklers to prevent frost damage Home gardeners faced with threatening frost damage to their vegetable patches . have often used a trick of nature -they've sprayed their plants with water. As the temperature dips below freezing, droplets on the plants absorb the brunt of the attack and freeze . before the plants are nipped. , Now science has confirmed it works on _a commercial scale, according to a report in the Can- adian 'Journal of Plant Science. Dr. G. H. Gubbels of the Agri- culture Canada Research Station, Morden, Man., reported. results of tests at the Experi- mental Farm, Mile 1019, Alaska Highway, Yukon Territory. "Peas and potatoes were pro- tected through to mid-September by sprinkler irrigation," he.said. "Between Aug. 27 and Sept. 16, irrigation was used on eight fights for a total of 53 hours. Temperatures dropped below freezing on, six nights. and were just above freezing on the 'other two. "All protected plots yielded more than .control plots—plots which were watered' to the same extent but in the daytime rather than during freezing temper- atures at night."., " Dr. Gubbels has. demonstrated that sprinkler irrigation in com- mercial market gardens can mean money in the pocket during early frost. It . can also mean a few more meals of crisp, fresh vegetables from the garden or a few days reprieve for those late flowerbeds around the home. Sweet corn, keep cool While dimples may be attrac- tiveon n beautiful young girl they ,are a sure sign of old age on a kernel of. corn. Plump kernels mean juicy, sweet, tender corn. Sweet corn has an extremely short shelf life. - t To maintain its freshness, corn must be chilled immediately after picking. held under re- frigerated conditions and used within one to two days. Most sweet corn is hydro -cool- ed. In other words, the corn is plunged into a,n iced water bath immediately after picking and held there for at least one hour. This lowers the internal tempera- ture of the cob from approxi- mately 85 degrees to a low of 35 degrees. Without. hydro -cooling the corn continues to respire and the sugars, responsible for its sweet juicy flavor. are quickly changed into starch. Although hydro -cooling helps to preserve freshness. sweet corn should always be kept under re- frigerated conditions and used as soon as possible. , Before street letter boxes were introduced in 1859, shops in larg- er Canadian cities were desig- nated as "receiving house". Let- ters were collected from them twice a day and forwarded to the nearest post office.
