HOTBEDS Fon IIOMIS USE.
In making a hotbed tbe conditions
of soil, location and climate are to
be taken into consideration, The
main things to acquire are heat and
sunlight. If on a wet or heavy soil
it is better to make the bed on the
surface.of the ground. Isar illustra-
tion, if the frame is 0x16 'feet pet
tbe manure on the ground evenly
10x20 feet, place the frame on this
and cover with sash. Cover nights
with mats or boards until you have
a proper and even heat. Make the
seedbed of good, rich soil or com-
poet about 4 in. deep; cover as be-
fore until all is warm, then sow -the
seed. Use horse manure that has
not been burned or heated. The
thickness of manure in bed sheuld be
governed by circumstances. If the
bed is made early and in a cold
cli-
niate, it will require 3n04 -e manure
to 1011* the heat, than if made later
or in a warmer climate.
The franie can be made of sound
inch -lumber or thicker if desired.
The tipper side should be 16 inches
high and the lower 12 inches. That
will gi VO slant enough. It given
more pitch the heat will rise to the
upper side and 1130 plants will not
grow even. The end "'boar should
be put on 1 or .2 inches higher than
the sides to keep out the cold. Put

join. The sash can slide on these,
at'same time keep out cold. If you
