The cold frame plants, that is, those that were
wintered in frames should go into the garden as
soon as the soil is tit to work. The cabbage
cauifower and lettuce are the three leadn !,
Kinds OF plants that are kept in frames and
planted out early. The plants may be hardened
In the frames by taking off the sashes at all times
during the present month. when the weather is
not cold enough to chill the plants. In market
gardens where astrct economy OF the ground ia of
great importance, the lettuce is planted between
the rows Of cabbageO or eaulitlOwer. The ground
should alss be heavily mauured-as high
as 10 tons OF fine stable manure per
acre may be used-after which the land
Is marked out in rows about two feet
apart, and the cabbage plants set Is inches apart
In the rows. The lettuce plants may be set one
loot apart between these rows. ThesOwing i'm hot

guide IN ali parts Of this country. Among the
tender garden plants are: Beans, cucuubers
orka pumpkins, squash, tomato and melons of
both kinds Some OF these tender sorts NAV be
started with great profit in the hot-bed or win

should be over before the plants are set In the
garden.
New varieties Of vegetables are offered every
year. and there Is II great temptation to the
novice to use them largely. 1t Is mistake to
rely upon them for the main crop instead OF the

By the clerk and he went out to have
the bill broken, saying he would re
turn In a few moments. He left his
baggage in the Office, and has not been
seen or heard Of since. This morning
the police we're informed, and inspect
