HOT BED OR COLD FRAME.

James Wick, to whose Guide for 1889
we are indebted for the accompanying
cuts, advises when the sun gets warm
giving the glass a thin coat of white
wash His hot beds are made by form
ing a pile of horse manure with the
straw used for bedding. or leaves, some
three feet in height Shake all together,
SO that straw and manure will be equally
mixed 1t may be sunk in the ground
foot or eighteen inches. or made on the
surface. On this place about five inches
of good mellow soil Then set the frame
and keep it closed until fermentation
takes place and the soil is quite warm.
It is better to wait day or two after this
and then SOW the seeds.
Some of the advantages of a hot bed
can be secured by a cold frame. This is
simply frame with sash, the same as
employed for hot bed. placed upon a
bed of fine, mellow earth. in some shell
tered place in the garden. The heat of
the sun warns the soil, and, as the air is
confined the warmth and moisture can
not escape. After the frame is secured
In it's place couple of inches of fine
earth should be placed inside. and the
frame closed up for day or two before
the seeds are planted, as the cold frame
depends upon the sun for it's warmth.
1t is not started as soon as the hot bed.
but when plants from the latter are large
enough for transplanting These frames.
when so small as to be conveniently
moved by hand, are called hand glasses.
A sample frame or box. with a couple of
lights of glass on top, will answer a very
good purpose. though when small it
would be better to have the front Of
glass A very good hand glass is made
of square frame, with light of glass
at each side and on the top. See Fig.
in first cut.
Seeds may be sown in the house in pots,
or boxes. but the greatest difficulty is
that the soil dries very rapidly in them,
and young plants are apt to suffer. A
very good plan is to cover the pot with
pane of glass. as shown in the engraving,
removing it occasionally for air. Where
very fine seeds are sown in pots. the wa
tering. unless carefully done, generally
results in great injury. A wet paper

Lemon BaY.

Lemon Bay.
[ would say to those readers of the AG-
RICULTURIsT inquiring about Lemon Bay
that, by looking at late map of Florida,
you will see that Lemon Bay lies along
the west coast of a part of Manatee
and DeSoto counties being about equally
divided between the two counties. The
bay is some sixteen miles long and about
one mile wide in the widest place. 1t lies
parallel to the coast, which runs about
northwest and southeast The bay is
divided from the gulfby narrow fridge
of land which ranges from one hundred
yards to One-fourth of a mile in width,
said fridge being high and dry and most
beautiful for settlements. There are two
passes through this fridge" connecting
the bay with the gulf, through which the
tides ebb and flow, keeping the waters
of the bay almost as pure as old ocean
itself. The bay is also connected with
Charlotte HarbOr by an inland route.
The bay is we'll supplied with great
abundance of fish of all kinds, even TIE
silver king-tarpon being very plentiful
CLAIMS arein grea abundance and oysters
are to be found in the mouths of the
creeks emptying into the bay.
The land is about the same as farther
up the coast, only we have no large bod
les of hammock. There are several small
hammocks, some of them being very rich.
We have about all classes of pine land,
from the best to the poorest. This sec
ton is yet on the frontier, and of course
not much being done in the way of i'm
prOvements, but we are making a begin
ming. While believe the natural advan-
tages of this part of the coast to be supe-
rior to many sections of Florida, yet it is
new and dundevelOped, land to those wishing
to come amongus> Iwould say Come and
see for yourselves. There is a postoffice
at Grove City, near the lower end of the
bay, with tri-weekly mail service from
Punta GOrda, the terminus of the Flori-
da Southern Railroad. Capt. Goff' s new
schooner ''pastime" makes weekly trips
to Punta Gorda and Charlotte Harbor
carrying freight and passengers.
Two families have recently moved in
and two more are on the bay prospect
ing.
We now have children enough to have
a school, which we hope to have going
on soon.
We had several good showers during
the last week, which were just in time for
our gardens.
Capt. Anderson, the fisherman, is catch
ing from twenty to thirty barrels of fish
per day. j. H. HILL.

For THE FLORIDA AGRIoULTURIsT
Hot Beds and Cold Frames.

AS the AGRICULTURTsT has said time
and again, the chie aim of the Florida
gardener should be to ''get there fist"
Early truck brings the best price. In
this connection il is not out of place to
again refer tn the matter of hot beds
and cold frames. as they are great as
sistance to the gardener in getting his
trNck into market at profitable seas' n.
BY being protected at the sides and
ends with boards and covered with glass
hot beds confine the moisture which
arises from the earth. and thus the at
mosphere is kept humid and the surface
moist and the plants are not subjected
to changes of temperature. as a uniform
state can be maintained no matter what
the weather may be The bottom heat
of the not bed warns the soil, and en-.
ables the grower to put in his seed early
and obtain plants of good size before the
soil outside is warm enough to5receive
the seed Care however is required to
prevent scorching the young plants In
bright days the heat is intense inside the
frame and unless air is freely given, or
some course taken to obstruct the rays
OF the sun most likely great portion Of
the plants will be ruined
The Florida agriculturist., 1889-12-04

placed over the top of the pot will afford
moisture enough for the termination of
fine seeds. If pots are used it is well to
sink them to the rim in a box of moss, or
something of the kind, that will hold
moisture, and prevent the drying of the
earth in the pots. shallow box may
be used to advantage, sowing the seed
carefully In narrow drills.
