They are easy -to assemble and` store. and with proper care will last indefin- E itely. Planed 2-inch spruce plank is gen-4 erally used in their manufacture, The three- l ` sash size is advocated. The sides for this, size should be cut 9 feet, 6 inches long;f This allows for a eleat 2 inches wide be-2 ing fastened on the sides at each end to prevent the `planks from spli;ting, and also: `for the end-pieces to rest against for sup-i .port. The back or north side should be 16 E inches wide, while 10 inches is a -good width Q for the front or'sou`h side. This gives a} slope to the south which permits the water: to run off and favours the passage ofthe sun s rays through the glass. The ends _ [are 6 feet in length and taper from 16 to g19 inches in width to fit the side boards. Strips of 1-inch board. 6 feet long and.3 inches wide, are fastened 2 inches above the :outside edge of these ends to prevent drafts: lofgair going under the sashes. The ends 'are set in place against the cleats on thei sides and fastened with 3%: .inch- screws.. As supports for the sashes `and to hold the sides in place, cross strips of board 3 inches 4,` [wide are sunk into the sides 3 feet from` each end and another strip `of $3-inch `board 2 inches wide fastened on edge;in' the centre of the 3-inch supports. These strips prevent the loss of heat andadrafts between the sashes. This frame is com- pletedwi-th three 3 feet by 6 feet hot bed sashes, which should be thoroughly painted: before use, ` l l fI1L- LA..L2_.__ ___._L___E4I.

When theyoung` plants come up, the hot bed should be: aired sufficiently on bright days to prevent; the- plants from getting spindly or weakly. I iThis is accomplished by raising the back I of the sash or by sliding it clown. care being taken to prevent the plants being chilled! Later. when the days. grow warmer, the? sashes may be removed throughout the day. Water must be applied when necessary, `preferably during the mornings of braghl days. Too much water is injurious, cans-;. ing damping off fungus to destroy the. plants. After the young plants show their} second leaves and have a good root develop- 3 ment they should be transplanted into . other flats where they remain until set out` in the field or beds. Flowers, celery, let- I tuce, early cabbage, cauliflowers and onionsi should be started early in April; tomatoest ten days later. ., 1 I'\ vs I I1I_l_ A 2,. ,,n In U jtvv out nu Ind Ir-Vbtgud Directed by 0 Archainbaud.
