It is not generally known that
Sweet peas can be started indoors in
similar manner to other annuals,
but it is so, atid much better results
areobtairietl ' by this method than
those which result from outdoor
sowing during the month of April.
Although they can be transplanted
from boxes or flats, it is a better
plan to start the seeding? in small
pots, and give them one repotting,
or perhaps two, before planting out
in the garden. The usual method is
to sow one seed in a two-inch pot.
Paper pots answer admirably for
this purpose, and after having bsen
sown the pots should be packed
tightly together in a flat, so as to
keep them from collapsing, : which
they are liable to do, due to wa
Transplanting the- Seedlings. '
When the seedlings are about two
inches high they can be transplanted
to three or four-inch pots, and when
they ate six or seven inches high the
top should be pinched off, which
causes them to branch freely, and
become-sturdy, bushy plants. .
The ground for sweet peas should
be heavily manured previous to
planting them outside. A trench
should be dug at least a foot deep
where the plants are to go, filling
the bottom to a height of six to
eight inches with thorbughly rotten
stable manure.
Over this place iwo or . three
inches of good soil containing a fair
proportion of fibrous loam, and leaf
mould if obtainable. ' The surface
should be leveled and raked and
should be a few inches lower when
finished than the surrounding
ground, forming a shallow ridge.
The plants should be transplanted
from a foot to 18 inches apart in
the jo w, and a few small twigs
placed around them,, converging to
a point, so that the young . runners
can be enticed to grow upward to
eventually ramble ever , the brush
which is later to be put around
them.
Watering should be regularly at-

tended to, and if the drainage is
good there is nothing sweet peas like
better than a copious supply of wa
ter, but it must not be allowed to
lodge or become sour about the
roots. s
- Mulching the Plants.
As the plants grow they should
receive a litter of straw stable ma-'
nurc laid on '.the surface of the
ridge. This tends to prevent evapor
ation, and will keep" the subsoil rich
and moist. - 4
If facilities for this indoor starting
are not possible, the same prepara
tion for the trench previous to sow
ing outside is advised and when the
young plants are three or four inches
high, they should be thinned out by
leaving a plant about every six
or eight inches apart and the trans
plants can be replanted in some
other part of the garden if available.
In sowing outdoors, s"Ow a double
row six inches apart, in each trench.
As the vines bloom the flowers
should be gathered daily, so as to
prevent seed pods being formed.

SCIENCE SIIOVS
HOME GARDENS
THE BEST OF ALL
Most--People Overlook the
Main Feature, . That of
Having Strictly Fresh;
.Vegetables. i
Among the profits ' of " the home
gardener it, one which is seldom
counted, but -which would alone be
sufficient to justify the trouble and
expense of growing one's own vege
tables.'' .' ' , . , ; '
It lies in 4he huge advantage of
serving things fresh, within a short
time of being picked from the plants
on which they grew. It has long
been known that., the exquisite
flavor of fresh peas afd sweet corn,
to cite notable examples,, began to
deteriorate .'if they were, not served
within an hour, after they .were
gathered. Thu opinion has now
been fortified' by science, through
experiments conducted by Messrs.
Straughn and Church and published
by the bureau of chemistry of the
Department of Agricultures Prof.
Charles A. Appleman of the Mary
land experiment v station hai pub
lished a full report of chemical ex
periments of the same orde.- ,
The experiments establish that
the -sugar content of sweet corn will
range in the neighborhood of 5 per
cent' This is in the proportion ot
three spoons of sugar in a cup of
coffee. In a normal summer temper
ature, even with the hiisks still on.
the - sugar cpntent will begin to
fall in an incredibly short time per
haps in the first 30 minutes' after
picking. In scientific language the
cause of this us the condensation
of polysaccharides, chiefly starch.
Respiration is, indirectly, also
factor.
In the first 24 hours after corn
has been picked, 30 per cent of its
sugar will have disappeared and in
the next 24 hours, 25 per cent more.
t- - ,
About 30 per cent of the sugar rt-v
mains fixed in the : corn, put attor 1
96 hours all evidence of -the delicious
corn flavor has disappeared, ,
Wrapping the corn in oiled paper
does notr help! The !only thing
which will prevent the loss of sugar
is , refrigeration. In a freezing
temperature, only, 7 per centf loss
occurred in 24 hours, and in a tem
perature of 50 about 15 per cent

A well-defined preference for enclosed cars as the
ideal vehicle for all-year driving was evidenced at the
Automobile Show Folks are now convinced that the
closed car is cooler in the Summer, also warmer in ,the
Winter, and in stormy weather there is no comparison.
The all-aluminum body of the Westcott Sedan elimi
nates the last' objection because there is no excess weight
or bulkiness. . - , -,-.
