Gardeners and farmers who raise

have hotsbeds. They know, Of course,
how to make them. But there are ma.
nv farmers who might have the COM
fort and benefit OF hot beds, but never
do, either because they do not think Of
it, or because they don t know how to
make them. Forsuch We present the
following instructions for making the
smallest and cheapest kind Of beds:
First oxcavato a space in the ground
about as largo as the bed is to be, and
twelve to eighteen inches deep. Fill
this with fresh horse manure, leaves,
litter from the stable, pressing it down
moderately. Put good soil and COM
post on this about Eve or six inches.
thick. Then place franc or box,
withouta bottom, on this, and fit
closely to ii for cover window sash.
Or, the manure may be placed in Il
pile on tho ground and the frame and
glass bo put on it. Tho heat from fo-
mentiug manure aud fromthe sun will
make heat enough htohasten vegetation
of the seeds so@ri in tho soil. To
avoid too much heat, the sashmust be
raised little during sunny days
Attention must DO paid 10 watering
the plants, and If cold weather comes
on, the glass must be covered with

A steel-bue beetle, grape vine
curculio. and a small grub or cater
pillar are troubling grape growers in
parts of Illinois
Walnu ut leaves bruise ed and rubbed
upon horses will, it is said, protect the
animals from the annoyance of flies.
To put buttons on the horns Of cat

The largest seed garden in the
world is said to be situated on the
Delaware river, Mt Bloomsdale, Pa,
occupying six hundred acres, and be-
longs to David Landreth & Son, of
Philadelphia, and is under the per-
sonal supervision of the senior mem
Der of the farm.
Fifteen or twenty years ago, when the
Mormons left Nauvoo, some Germans
settled there, who have been so sue
cessful in grape growing, that there
are now many hundred acres devoted
to it, and not less than 10000 Della
wares alone were planted in the fall OF
1864 and spring of 1865. The Con-
cord and other grapes are also exten-
sively planted.
j. f.. Whiteman, of Londonderry,
Vt, writes the Vermont Farmer that
cows have been sold off too closely iii
that section. There are many farm
ers who have from 100 to 200 acres OF
land and only one to three cows, and
butter is 30 to ,35 cts, at the door.
Cows that sold from S25 to $50 two
years ago are now held for $50, sos,
$75, each, and anything extra as high
as $50 to 800.
Prof Tillman recommended before
the New York Farmers Club, n mix
ture of lime paste and skinned milk,
as the cheapest and neatest covering
for fences and other rough work. The
best preparation would be made by
mixing lime with curd and using milk
or whey for diluting the mixture.
The reason why this compound will
make more permanent wash than
ordinary whitewash is, that the coagu-
lated casein in curd is dissolved in q
solution of any alkaline earth, and tic
compound is not soluble in water.
