Abstract: A plant feeder having a water reservoir and a water conduit connected to the reservoir at one end. The other end of the water conduit is adapted to be positioned adjacent the roots of a plant to be fed. The water conduit has a water permeable plug with water soluble plant food therein whereby water can percolate through the conduit from the reservoir to the roots dissolving plant food on its way, and air and insects are blocked from migrating to the roots.The method provides placing the other conduit end of the plant feeder of the invention below the roots of a recently transplanted plant, percolating water from the reservoir to the roots through water soluble plant food, and blocking the migration of air and insects to the roots through the conduit.

Abstract: A sofa-bed which has a base with a seat member, a back member, and a bed member. The sofa-bed has linkage which connects the seat and the back and bed members together. The seat, back and bed members can be moved between a sofa position and a bed position. In the sofa position the bed member is behind the back member and in the bed position the seat, back and bed members are essentially in the same plane. The linkage connects the seat, back and bed members to the base in a slidable relation. The linkage and the seat, back and bed members can be moved together as a single unit relative to the base.

Abstract: An improved vehicle seat frame having a back frame and a seat frame. The back frame and seat frame are hinged together. The back frame and seat frame are movable between an upright position and a reclining position. A latch is positioned between the upright and reclining positions which locks the vehicle seat in both its upright position and its reclining position from further movement both forwardly or rearwardly thereof.

Abstract: An improved detachable seat pedestal that can be secured to both a vehicle seat and the floor of a vehicle. The pedestal includes a base plate and a seat support. The base plate is adapted to be secured to the floor of the vehicle. The seat support is adapted to be secured to a vehicle seat. The base plate and seat support have aligning devices and attaching devices which allow the seat and the seat support to be removed from the base plate and the vehicle as desired.
