German Hot Beds.

We feel that, in giving some account of trans
lucent cloth hot beds, to be employed instead of
the expensive glass frames in general use, are
doing all our garden readers service. We can
vouch for the value of the German Hot Beds u
having tried them very successfully many years
ago. For forcing melons, tomatoes, etc, this
prepared cloth is especially adapted, as it can be
tackled to boxes of any size required and cut to
fit them. Little, rough, square boxes of the pro-
per size and height, covered with this prepared
cloth, can be placed over the hills in which tOma
toes, melon or other seeds are planted, and the
plants allowed to stand, without transplanting,
until all danger of frost is over, when the boxes
may be taken off and packed away carefully for
another season.
Take white cotton, of close texture stretch 1T,
and nailit frames of any size you wish; mix two
ounces of lime water four ounces oflinseed oil one
ounces white of eggs separately two ouncesof ok
of eggs; mix the lime and oil with very gentle
heat, beat the eggs separately, and mix with the
former. Spread the mixture with paint brush
over the cloth allowing each coat to dry before
applying another, until they become water proof.
The following are some of the advantages THESE
shades possess over glass:
l. The cost being hardly one-fourth.
2. Repairs are easily and cheaply made
3. They are light; they do not require water
ing no matter how intense the heat OF the sun,
the plants are never struck down, or IA
ded, or checked in growth; neither do they
grow mp long, sickly and weakly, as they do IN
der glass, and still is abundance of light
The heat entirely arises from below, 10 equable
and temperate, which is a great object; Ihe va
pOr arises from the manure and EARTH is con-
densed by the cool air passing over the surface
Of the shade, and hangs in drops upon the inside
and therefore the plants do not require so fire.
quent watering. If the frame or stretchers are
made large, they should be intersected with
cross bars about foot square, TO support the
cloth. These articles are lust the thing for bring
ing forward flower seeds in season for trans
planting-Okio Farmer

The Meath Of March Hisfsrre.IIy,

March is a month that has fair historical rec
ord. 1t was on the 5th of March, ITO, that took
place what is known as "The Boston Massacre "
an event that had much to do with bringing
about the overthrow of English rule in the thir-
teen colonies. On the night of the 4th of March,
l7Io, General Washington began those opera
tons which led to the evacuation of Boston by
General Howe and his army. He took posses
sion OF Dorchester Heights, and so obtained COM
mand Of both the harbor and town of Boston.
Nothing bur the severity of the weather prevent
ed great battle, as the English were bent on
driving the Americans from their commanding
position, and the latter were Just rs resolute in
their purpose TO keep it; and had battle been
fought, probably the former wonld have got one
of the completest threshings that ever was be-
slowed upon army, for their foes were in fine
condition, with their line all but absolutely I'M
pregnable against twice the force that Sir WILL
lam Howe bad under him. The weather gave
the Americans ample time to complete every
thing. The thirteen days that followed tie 4th
were the most interesting in Bostou's history;
but on Sunday, the 18th, the English abandoned
the place, the troops and tories going on board
the feet, which dropped down to Nantasket
Roads. The 18th of March, I776, was the last
day on which foreign and hostile force ever
trud the streets of Boston-aud for ninety-seyen
years the good and dear old town never has seen
an enemys regiment. The van of the American
FORCES entered the town that day. When our
present form of national government was ,stsh.
lished, the 4th of March, I7Sa, was selected for
MS commencement, but it was not until 1893
that inauguration day first occurred on that date,
Ihe stamp act was passed in March, 1865. and
repealed IN March, l766. 1t was on the 10th of
March. lae2, that Lord North announced the
close OF bis ministry, achange that virtually put
an emo 70 the war OF the American Revolution
