In thoesse tantalizing weeks of early spring, when a warm sun one day sets the garden fever burning, and freezing weather that night chills the courage, a cold frame is priceless. Everybody need.; one. though he may have a hot-bed, or even a green-bouse in addition. To the great majority of home gardeners, the cold frame will suffice for all i real needs in early sowing. Easy to build, and simple to op- , erate, it enables seeds to be sown | several weeks before it would be I safe to sow them in the open. . With the protection of the glase sash on frosty nights the seeds will germinate, and the seedlings grow sturdily, until they are large enough to transplant into the open ground. Success in cold frame practice depends upon the judgment used in timing the sowing, so that when transplanting date arrives the danger of frost injury is past. Sowing dates may vary with different crops; depending on the length of germinating periods, which vary greatly in flower seeds, and on the tenderness of the seedling plants. While all baby plants, like baby animals. ar» less hardy end resistant than adults, some will stand light frosts I while others will die at a touch of frost. The earlier you wish to sow seeds, the more important these considerations of detail become. If you are content to wait with sowing until four weeks before it would be safe to plant outdoors, it should be safe to go ahead with

anything. To make a cold frame, the accompanying illustrations give full and detailed instructions. The soil ■which is need in it should be fine, friable top soil, well pulverized. Sow the seed as you would in a flat, or hotbed, water thoroughly and firm the soil over the seed, cressing smooth with a brick, or niece of board. Watering now becomes of great importance. At no time should the soil be allowed to become hard and dry. Yet excessive watering may cause the seed* to rot. »onr the soil, or cause "damping off.” When the plants annear, thin them out. allowing each to grow singly without crowding. After the seedlings appear, watering is still imnortant. Good drinks, between which the soil dries somewhat without becoming crusty and hard, should be the rule. And fresh air Is the next great need. On sunny days, the «ash shou’d be lifted early in the morning, otherwise the temperature mav nuiekly run to a dangerous height. Insnect the cold frame at least everv morning and afternoon. and remember it whenever the weather changes abrunttv i Yon will soon .learn the program needed to keen the voting nlants growing vigorously. which means with good heavy roots and strong stems, stocky rather than tall and snindling. When transplanting time comc-s, take tin the seedlings with as little ! disturbance of the roots as pos-’ eible. and get them back into the ground as soon as you can.
