' PAGE SEVEN 1 ii wi. i..nipiijiijijniiniiijiiiii. i.i mi vnmnnmwjvmmmvmm 1 iif .aJ In some pants of the state the trans planting of warm season plants lias already begun but for Che most part there is still danger of killing frosts, Where frosts may still be expected, plants can be Set and' protected with hat caps for two or three weeks. Hot caps made of oiled paper may be par chased at most seed stores and are very effective in protecting tomato, pepper, eggplant and melon plants from cold weather and frost. (They also furnish protection from Insects while the plants from cold weather and frost flliey also furnish protec tion from insects while the plant is starting growth. The use of hotcaps will often bring, tomatoes and melons in about ten days earlier than unpro "tected plants. It is important to re move the hotcaps as soon as the need for protection is past. At transplanting time it is also timely to discuss the use of "starter" solutions. There are several of these materials offered for sale. They are usually made up of salts containing nitrogen, phosphorus and potash that, are easily soluble in waiter. The man-1 ufacturer's directions for use should be followed. A starter solution can be made at home by dissolving one pound of .a good garden fertilizer such as 6-8-6 or 8-8-8 in five gallons of wa ter and using one-half pint of this solution to water each plant when transplanted. Starter solutions have been found to be very efficient in giving the plants a quick start. They are to be used in addition to the reg ular fertilizer application.
