Abstract: A game apparatus having a projectile or thrown element and one or more receiver elements. The projectile element comprises a soft, preferably weighted nose portion received within the open end of a projectile body which is formed from a thin plastic material and which is of frustoconical shape. The body is hollow and open at the larger end thereof. The receiving element has means for accommodating the nose portion of the projectile, preferably, an open end, and is comprised of a frustoconical hollow body with an enlarged open end and having a size and taper generally corresponding to that of the projectile portion. In use, the projectile is thrown by one of the players and the other player or players attempt to catch it in the cone shaped receiver by directing the open end of the receiver towards the incoming projectile. The sufficient taper provides safety and the cone configuration affords stable flight to the projectile and presents a reception opening which is specially adapted to catch the projectile.

Abstract: A plant feeding apparatus for providing a continuous supply of liquid to the soil surrounding potted plants. The apparatus includes a fluid reservoir portion with a reservoir body and a cover assembly, and a soil probe portion with an axially extending, wick-receiving opening disposed therein. A soil moisturizing wick is provided which extends from the reservoir and into the opening in the probe. The soil probe is relatively rigid and includes a variable-area aperture in a part thereof for permitting at least a portion of the wick to be exposed through the aperture for moisturizing the soil received in a container. A neck or shoulder is found where the probe meets the reservoir body, and this shoulder facilitates mounting the apparatus on a rim of the pot or other receptacle. An adjustable slide serves to expose more or less wick through the aperture in the probe.
