the bottom—it is even more im-
porta ‘ ’ i there are no drain-
age holes in the bottom. An inch
layer of broken flower pots or
pebbles is fine. Then fill the pan
with the soil mixture, to a point
ing books insist that seed pans
need consist merely of a light
medium, which drains well. A
mixture of sand, which is ster-
ile, and peat moss, which will
hold some moisture, is frequent-
ly recommended.
Later, when the seedlings are
ready to be transplanted to po-
sitions farther apart and per-
mitted to develop good root sys-
terns, the soil mixture should be
richer—containing top soil and
perhaps some rich humus or
compost. I have had good luck
with a lazy man’s method of
filling my seed pans with a
light but fertile soil (about one
part topsoil, one part sifted com-
post. one part sand) and thin-
ning the seedlings out into oth-
er similarly filled pans. In other
words I don’t transplant all the
seedlings.
Dig This
For those who neglected to
bring in soil for filling the pans,
the procedure is simple. Go out-
side and dig some. If the weath-
er is cold, chop out a few chunks
of frozen top soil, bring it into
the cellar and let it thaw and
dry until it is the right consis-
tency for handling. Sand and
humus usually can be purchased
from the local garden supplies
outlet.
Be certain that all seed con
tainers have a drainage layer at

Cecil Newland, president

Gainesville college students
participated in the sale of

Mr. Newland expressed his ap-
preciation to the community
and to the college students for
the fine response given.
Although the amount raised
In Saturday’s sale is far short of
the total Blue Crutch sales in
1956, Mr. Newland feels it is a
good start. Plans are in the
making to continue Blue Crutch
sales throughout the month. Mr.
Newland believes last year’s
figure will be reached and sur-
passed before the campaign is
over.

really is such a short season for
the gardner. Here we are, really
only a few weeks into that offi-
cial period, and I’ve just put in
a day’s work getting organized
for seed-planting. Indoor seed-
planting. of course, and that will
start in just about a month.
For gardeners with large
houses, plenty of sunny win-
dow spaces or, better still, a
small greenhouse, seed-starting
isn’t a project which requires a
vast amount of planning. But
for us with small houses, limit-
ed space and few windows in
the proper location, seed-start-
ing presents a. problem of logis-
tics worthy of von Clausewitz.
I have exactly 15 feet of avail-
able window-sill space. Two win-
dows may be used for more
seed pans and flats than the
other three because I can place
a table in front of them. For the
three which are literally win-
dow-sill gardens, I have used
cigar boxes and wooden cheese
boxes (the kind in which cream
cheese is shipped to the grocer).
This year, however, I shall sub-
stitute the new aluminum con-
tainers which are just about
the right width to stand on the
narrow sill.

are wonderful if you have a

that small wooden boxes, pie

dishes (the kind frozen foods
come in) are better for my pur-

Seeds come with their own nu-

of them need no outside food
until they have developed their
first sets of “true” leaves—as

Ice Hunting .
Hunting seals is an important part of an Eskimo’s life. The seal
is his chief source of food and clothing.
It tries to escape the hunter by swimming under the ice, but has
to come up to breathe every once in a while. That’s when the patient
hunter gets his chance.
Here is an Eskimo hunter standing beside an air hole in the ice
waiting for a seal. He has a spear in his hand and a snow knife be-
side him. Another knife is stuck into the handle of his food pouch.
Paste this picture down on cardboard and color it with crayons.
Cut out the parts carefully. If you fold the end panels forward the
Eskimo will stand up. Cut the small heavy line on the food panel.
Fold the left part under and the other part forward. It will be ready
to stand in front of the Eskimo.
Now cut a slit in the ice hole as indicated. Slip the seal up through
the hole. Let it pop up and look at the Eskimo. You can quickly pull
it back as often as you like.
