Florists' potting soil is the best, or a fine garden loam, about half sandi Sphagnum moss should be used to prevent damping-off,- which is a fungus disease that frequently attacks seedlings. Rub the moss through a coarse sieve or colander and place a layer of this shredded moss over the soil In the flat to the depth of to Vi inch Firm and saturate soil and moss. Drop the seeds on the moss, and coVer very lightly with .a thin layer of sphagnum. Proceed from this point on as with soil culture. Seed may be broadcast one variety to a flat; or sown in rows, which allow several varieties to be grown in the same box,- each row being labeled. Seeds which are' broadcast arc usually less crowded than those In rows. If you sow in rows, use the edge of a ruler to make shallow indentations in the soil; sow thinly, cover lightly, and firm the soil with a block of wood. Keep the box in a dark place until sprouts appear, then place in the sunniest window you own. A kitchen window is good, be cause humidity is always greater there.
