VEGETABLES UNDER GLASS.
A System of Intensive Culture with Labor

A System of Intensive Culture with Labor
Saving Devices.
The three styles of glass gardening
used by vegetable growers are cold
frames, hotlSeds and forcing houses. The
first Of these, the cold frame, as Rural
New Yorker explains, is cheap and east
~ managed, and many farmer will
find it valuable either for the benefit Of
his own table or for the home market
The construction, in commercial place,
is extremely simple-merely long bed,
6 feet wide, inclosed on either side by
inch boards. The ends are of course in
closed but there are no crossbars; so
after removing the ends the entire length
may be cultivated by horsepower. For
covering, 8 foot sashes are merely laid
across the frames Alleys feet wide
are left between the frames. These are
also planted, no waste space being per-
mitted. The soil of the frames is very
rich and well drained, and it is recon-

cent. Divided by classes, the working
people of the country are as follows
Agricultural, fisheries and mining, 9,Ol3,-
1893 professional, 944.333; domestic and
personal service, 4,3G0,5T7; trade and
transportation, 1926, 122; manufacturing
and rechanical industries, 5,O9l, 293.
The domestic and personal service in
cludes hotel keepers, soldiers, sailors
and marines, laborers, BARRIERS, detec-
tives, etc. The first named class is a
ten years gain of oyer million, or of
almost 100000 for score of years.
Considerably more than four-fifths of
the illiterate male population of the
country and over one fourth of the IL
literate female population are working.
Over 80 per cent of the working-men
are married, over 81 per cent, single,
over 3 per cent, widowed and one quarter
of one per cent divorced.

maple and beet, but is mostly for cane

1t is said that all the states except
Washington have some legislation on
the subject of forest fires.
1t is suggested by The Rural New
Yorker that farmers have their name

on letter heads and envelopes, cheap

In most of the important corn dis

1t is reported that so per cent of the
increase in exports of American bread
stuffs is found at southern ports like
Baltimore, Norfolk, New Orleans and
Galveston.
A Kansas farmer says that the only
time for killing weeds is ON a clear day

about all you do is to transplant the

depth of two or three inches, be removed
and replaced each season.
An illustration, reproduced from
Dreer's book, vegetables Under Glass, :"
shows how these "boxes" look when at
rest-that is, while the glass is off dur
ing the summer.
The alley, feet wide, is planted with
radishes, while the boxes themselves
contain summer crop of celery. The
picture shows how easily these boxes
may be worked by horsepower AS fast
as one crop comes out another is started.
Some Of the cold frame rotations,
practiced by Philadelphia market gar
deners, are thus given in the useful
manual already quoted. Spinach, sown
about Sept. 10, cut at Christmas; rad
ishes sown in February, pulled in
April bush beans, sown in April; corn
salad, sown about Sept. 10, cut in April
and May, followed by beans; lettuce,
sown about Sept. 49, cut in April and
May, followed by beans; spinach, sown
about Sept. 10, cut at Christmas; lettuce
(plants from the seed bed or seed) in
February, followed by beans. Beets are
frequently sown in February.
OF winter market garden crops the
following may be grown without heat {:
Spinach, spring cabbage plants, corn
salad, endive, onions, daisy, pansy, vio-
let. With heat: Tomato, cucumber,
caulifower, beans, melon, mushroom,

ter of the yard at point which will be
the most sunny and pleasant possible. A
writer in the New York Tribune gives
an illustrated description of good rack.
He says:
A simple but effeotual way in which
to build one of these feed racks is to be-
gin by settling four tall posts in the
ground in the form of a rectangle as
shown in the cut. Their height and dis
tance apart will determine the size and
capacity of the rack it is inadvisable,
however, to make it very wide-say not
over 6 feet-as some difficulty would be
experienced by the animals in pulling
out the hay if bound solidly in the CEN
ter Set the posts leaning toward the
center in order to make the opening
wider at the bottom than at the top.
This will prevent binding. and in conse-
quence the hay will readily settle as it
is being eaten away from below. From
about 16 inches above ground to the top
of the posts the sides and ends should be
boarded tightly making it possible for
the animal to get at the hay only at the
bottom.
To make the rack complete, manger
must be constructed entirely round the
upright part This is best accomplished
by setting four short posts securely in
the ground opposite the corners, and
others between TO give frmness to this
part where pressure is brought to bear.
If the manger is made slanting and mar
row at the bottom, it will prevent ami
mails from getting in, as they are often
tempted to do in cold weather. Many
consider it a good plan to cover such a
rack with a shed roof, thus always keep
ing the hay dry This can be done with
very little expense. And. better yet,
would advise having door at the front
of it, hung on hinges, as represented in
the illustration, so that it could be let
down at will for the insertion of the
hay. This would tend to keep the fodder
dry, for the most part, in any kind of
weather.

FORGING HOUSE WITH SASH ROOF.

able sashes on frame This picture
was taken in summer and shows the
construction of such a house. Such a
house marks step above the cold frame
and hotbed, for it provides shelter and
permits the Introduction of inside heat
by means of steam or hot water. In this
house the glass roof can be wholly re.
moved The peak or highest part of the
roof is about six feet above the surface
of the middle bed, while the permanent
glass sides are two feet high. The beds
are made directly upon the ground, sep
arated by suuken walks.

The system of handling the produce
trade in the growing towns and small
cities is very unsystematic in most
places. Instead of so many small shops
and little markets scattered over the
city it would be far better for con-
sumers as we'll AS producers in the bust
ness We're concentrated if an appropri-
ate market building at some convenient
center. A typical market of this kind is
the nsw institution just opened aS the
center of the enterprising city of Spring
field, Mass. The New England Home
stead describes il as follows; 1t is of
yellow brick, l65 by 65 feet, containing
"a stalls. The main doors open and close
by electricity. The basement contains a
fine plant for cold storage of meats,
fruits, vegetables, etc The display of
these and other foods in the various
stalls is very attractive and is an object
lesson to farmers about preparing theil
stuff for market. Although new de
parture the occupants are already doing
fine business, and on "a l9cent Satur
day night 10000 people visited thii

In some experiments carried out un-
der the direction of the Vermont Bee
keepers association II hives were
placed in room by "a feet, capable
of accommodating "a colonies The
bees, having come from different sources,
were in different sized frames, and for
this reason were observed closely to de-
termine the best form of frame to adopt
in the production of comb or extracted
honey and for wintering bees. No per
ceptible difference has yet been noticed
After the onset Of frost sugar strip
was fed in different ways to test the
ability of bees to change cane sugar into
honey sugar. Analyses are given of the
honeys produced-pure honey and honey
that had been adulterated with cane sug-
ar 1t was found that the best honey
was produced when large quantity of
strip was fed to the bees rapidly. The
resulting honey did not granulate
When strip was fed in small quantities
for a considerable time, less sucrose was
found on analysis, but the product gran
ulated. Stimulative feeding during the
spring was tried but was interrupted,
and the results are inconclusive.
A nonswarming device was employed
with four colonies of bees, but proved a
failure so far as preventing any desire
to swarm. Two strong colonies running
together with nonswarmer produced
less comb honey than single colonies
that were allowed to swarm at will.
