Although hardy plants like cabbage should be set out first, more
tender plants like tomatoes need not be far behind. Plastic covering
over rows or individual plants guards them from frost.

An earlier crop of tomatoes or of other vegetables tender to cold
Is easier to have now that plastics are available to every gardener.
They make it possible to set out tomato plants, under protection of
course, at almost the same time as hardy vegetables are trans-
planted to the garden.
There are two ways of protecting tender plants, through row and
through Individual "green-
liniluau " Y( uf urialu uauiluii uru
houses.’' Materials needed are
sheets of transparent polyethy-
lene plastic and U-shaped wire
supports.
The plastic Is widely available
and so Is heavy wire. Or the
supports may be made of wire
coat hangers. Cut the wire at
both sides of the hook, stretch
the remainder of the hanger
full length, and then bend into
U form.
The cut ends of the T-shaped
wires are stuck down into the
soil, the wires spaced a foot or
two apart, depending on the
length of the row and therefore
the weight of plastic to be sup-
ported. When necessary, two
wlies may be placed side by
side for greater strength.
Alter the plants are set out,
plastic is draped over the wire
framework, pulled down at sides
and ends, and anchored with
soil heaped over the edges. Plas-
tic should be placed so it does
not touch plant parts. Several
inches should be allowed be
tween plants and plastic.
Individual plant protectors are
made in much the same way as
row "greenhouses." Two 17.
shaped wires are installed at
right angles to one another, one
arching over the other, and are
fastened together where the
wires cross. A plant Is set under
this framework, plastic fitted
over it and anchored with soil.
Openings may be left where
pieces of plastic meet or slits
made in the plastic covering to
admit more air if weather is
sunny and to observe plant
growth. These openings are best
left or made on the side of the
covering opposite the prevailing
wjud*.

Reports From Austin
Things are still going at a
mighty fast pace in both hous-
es of the Legislature. Some-
times I feel as though we are
going a little bit too fast, but
I when we are committeed to
140 days per sessiori and the
nwqher qf tyUs introduced
grow# larger each session, it
[ looks as if we have no other
1 choice.
j We had a large delegation
i from our district Monday,
| March 8, at the committee
hearing of House Bill 469, the
bill to take away our irriga-
tion privileges. We were suc-
cessful in getting an amend-
ment to the bill whereby it
would not interfere with oar
present water rights and the
bill was sent to a sub-commit-
tee for further study. It is my
belief that the bill will never
get Out of the sub-committee.
The presence and interest of
our people certainly gave me
the boost that I needed in
fighting this bill and I deeply
appreciate evervone’s help.
The bill to
fish regulations in all counties
under the authority of the
Parka and Wildlife Depart-
ment was heard before the
Game and Fisheries commit-
tee this week and has yet to be
referred to a sub-committee.
The bill to provide for the
issuance and sale of $200 mil-
lion in veterans’ land bonds to
extend the veterans’ land pror
gram passed the House on
Thursday, March 11.
More than 100 juniors andJ
seniors from Elgin High schopl 1
visited the capitol this week 1
and we were also priviledged
to have the Adult 4-H Leaders
Conference group visit with
us. It was a pleasure to show
them around.
It always pleases me to have
visitors to the capitol from our
district.
Sincerely yours,
Charlie Jungmichel
