Queeticn_M, P. -I havopui'chased
two tons of ground limeytope to ex-
periinvnt with, 'flow,• when and where
shall I apply tt'to.get.best results? I
intend to sow oats; barley, corn, sugars
heats, cloverand • wheat.,, Tho land
is all under -drained and fall plowed
except corn stubble and beet ground;
soil, good clay loam, Intend to
sow barley on corn stubble land .disced
up in the spring and seed to red clover.
Answer: -1 would advise you to pick
out three acres of uniform corn stubble
Lind, 'App1y•one ton of, ground lime-
stone -to the first acre and thoroughly
disc it in, in preparing the seed -bed for
the barley which is to be seeded to" red
clover. On "the second acre which
should lies right between one and three
thoroughly disc the. land but do not
apply limestone and seod`to barley and
red clover. On, acre No. 3, apply the
remaining 1000 lbs of ground lime-
stone and disc up the land in prepara-
tion for the grain seed. Just before
seeding time, or a week or ten days
ar ng worked the limostone into
the soilhavi, applyo200 to 300 pounds of a
fertilizer analyzing 2 to 3% ammonia
end 8 'to 10% available phosphoric
acid. If your seed -drill has not a fer-
tilizer drilling attachment, scatter the
fertilizer as evenly as possible over the
acre and thoroughly harrow it into the
ground. Then sow your barley and
red clover as before.
At' harvest time weigh the results
from the three individual acres separ-
ately and you will have a clear c:emon-
,Stration of,—first, the value of the
line, second, the value of the lime and
fertilizer. Besides weighing the bar-
ley, be sure to note the earliness with
which 'it ripens on each plot and the
weight per bushel of the grain when
it is harvested. Also note how suc-
cessful the grass and clover seedings
have been on each plot.
Ground limestone is a corrector of
soil sourness and is not essentially a
plantfood. When you have limed the
Henry G. Bell.
soil you have corrected its eolidition
so that glover will thrive on it, but
when you have added 200 to 800
pounds of fertilizer in addition to the
lime, you have given available plant -
food to the tiny Clover crop just the
same al: you give Whole mills to the
Young calves, and the results from
seeding both the young barley and
clover clops should be quite as appar-
ent as they are in good feeding of live-
stock.
Question—S. C.:—Am thinking of
sowing a couple et acres of beans.
Flow would they do on sod plowed It
the spring? The land is sandy loam
which has not been worked for quite a
while. Would sow the beans with a
ten hoe drill. How deep should they
be planted and would the common
white bean he all right?
Answer: -Beans should do well
upon spring plowed sod, if after plow-
ing great care is taken to thoroughly
disc and harrow the seed -bed, and pos-
sibly if the ground appears to be too
louse to roll it and follow with a har-
rowing. The point is that the•turn-
mg under of the heavy sod may make
the seed -bed too, loose and actually in-
jure . the water supply around the
growing plant. This can be avoid-
ed by thoroughly working the •seed-
bed into a compact but still mellow
form. --
The general rule, in sowing seed, is
to put them not deeper than four times
their longest diameter. This would
mean that the beans should not be
planted deeper than 2% to 3 inches.
The common white bean is a service-
able type to grow but you should take
care to sift out all the undersized and
injured beans and to pick out 100
beans and lay them between a damp
cloth, keeping them in a warm'room.
You can watch the sprouting pf these
beans after they have been prepared
as described, and if at the end of a
week or ten days they do not sprout
strong and show considerable vigor,
you will do well to obtain new seed.
ESSENTIALS FOR THE GARDENER
Construction and Care of Hotbed and Cold Frame—Both Are of
Greatest Assistance in Obtaining An Early Start
With Market Produce.
The gardener's greatest aids in
ri 'ing early crops are the hotbed and
the cold frame. The hotbed enables
him to plant seed and produce seed-
lings long'before the seed planted out
of doors has begun to germinate. The
cold frame enables 'him to get the
seedlings produced in the hothouse
gradually accustomed to outdoor con-
ditions and to raise these into strong,
sturdy planting stock by the time the
garden is ready for them.
The cold frame is used in hardening
the plants which have been started in
the hotbed or in mild climates for
starting plants before the seeds can
.be -safely planted in the open.
Resetting plants from a hotbed into
the cold frame gives them a better
root system and makes them stockier
and more valuable for transplanting
in the open ground.
.Building of Hotbed.
The hotbed should be in some shel-
tered, but not shaded, spot which has
a southern exposure. The most con-
venient size is a boxlike structure six
feet wide and any multiple of three
feet long, so that'Standard three by
six feet hotbed sash may be used. The
frame -should be twelve inches high
in the back and eight, inches on the
front. This slope is for the purpose
of securing a better angle for the
sun's rays and should be faced toward
the south.
The hotbed not only must collect
any heat it call' from the sun, but also
must generate heat of its own from
fermentation in fresh manure. Fresh
horse manure, free from stable litter,
is best for generating heat.

feet deep, about two
inches to two
feet greater hi length and width than
the frame carrying the sash. Line
the excavation With plank or with a
bride or concrete wall, A drain to
carry orf surplus water is essential.
After a sufficient amount of fresh
horse manure has been accumulated,
fill the pit, and while it is being filled
tramp the manure as firmly and as
evenly as possible. When the ground
level is reached place the frame in
position and bank the sides and ends
with manure. Place about three
inches of good garden loam on top of
the manure inside the frame and cover
it with the sash, After the heat has
reached its maximum and has subsid-
ed to between 80 degrees and 90 de-
grees F„ it will be safe to plant the
seeds. Select the plumpest, freshest
seeds obtainable. Use standard var-
ieties and get them from reliable seed
houses.
Crisis in Plrtnt Life.
Keep the bed partly dark until the
seeds germinate.
. After germination, however, the
plants will need all the light possible,
exclusive of the direct rays of the
sun, to keep them growing rapidly.
This is a crisis in plant life and ven-
tilating and watering with great care
are of prime importance. Too close
planting and too much heat and water
cause the plants to become spindling.
Water the plants on clear days in the
morning and ventilate immediately to
dry the foliage and to prevent mil-
dew.
The cold'frame, so useful in harden-
ing plants started in the hotbed and
for starting plants in mild climates,
is constructed in much the same way
as the hotbed except that no manure
is used, and the frame may be cover-
ed either with glass sash or with can,
vas. A cold flame may be built on the
surface of the Around,• but a more
permanent structure suitable for hold-
ing plants over winter will require a
pit eighteen to twenty-four inches
deep. The cold frame -should be filled
with a good potting soil. Tho plants
should have more ventilation in the
cold frame, but should not receive so
water. It is best to keepthe
much
soil rather dry.
In transplanting, remember that
plants usually thrive better if trans-
planted into ground freshly cultivated.
Transplanting to the open field is best
done in cool, cloudy weather, and in
the afternoon. This prevents the
sun's rays from causing the•plant to
lose too much moisture through evap-
oration, In transplanting the garden-
er will find a child's express wagon an
excellent trolley tray for bedding out
his seedlings.

Frogs' Legs For Wireless.
Science has just discovered that
frogs' legs are good for other pur-
poses than forming, a most appetizing
dish. Tho leg muscles of this amphi-
bious animal are now successfully
used for recording wireless messages.
In utilizing a frog's muscles for this
purpose scientists say that the leg of
this animal makes an ideal radio -tele"
graphic detector. To record a wire-
less message with a frog's leg the
sciatic nerve of the leg is connected
with the microphonia circuit of the re-
ceiver. One end of the leg is fixed to
a base and the opposite end connect-
ed with a pivoted lever, so as to record
on a slowly revolving, paper -covered
drum the contraction of the muscles
caused by the electric impulses.
