Porter. Over the former has been
raised the finest monument in the Gem
etery. 1t is Of beautifully polished
granite bearing on its face a bronze
flag and a medallion head of the hero

An Effective Hotbed.

The location for a good hotbed neeaa,
to be chosen with some care; It Should
be sheltered by trees or by a good
broad fence on the north side. This
fence should be six and a half feet high
and is usually built leaning back about
six inches from perpendicular at the
top SO that mats, sashes or shutters
leaned up against the fence will not 81
readily be blown down by the wind.
The land should slope a little to the
south or southeast, and the bed should
be either level or of even grade from
end to end in order to run the planks
straight from one end to the other. The
bed should face southeast, south or
southwest, according to the lay Of the
land.
The best material for heat Is fresh
horse manure from a stable where not
less than eight horses are kept, well
fed with grain. The manure should
be piled up near the bed until enough

ure for each ten or fifteen sashes. If
not needed Immediately it should be
pitched over frequently to prevent
burning. When ready the manure
should be forked into the bed, not
dumped, and well trodden down as it
is placed in the pit until the required
amount is In place. Then 1t should be
Immediately covered with the loan

In about two days after being made
up the bed will attain its greatest de-
gree Of heat if everything works well,
perhaps ninety to lis degrees. After
this the heat will gradually decline,
and after four weeks will usually be
about fifty to sixty degrees. The deep

higher will be the heat and the longer
will it be retained. When beds are
started in January and February 1t is

NEW JERSEY STATE NEWS
Great Run of STURGEON.

The unprecedented run of sturgeon
has filled the fishing camp at Bayside
with glee and many visitors. The men
who have pegged away at the industry
for years with Indifferent fortunes and
who had about abandoned all hope of
ever again seeing the big fish in paying
numbers are up to their eyes in bust
ness, one or two of them having made
more than enough to compensate them
for heavy losses for other years. No
one is able to account for the great run
or the sturgeon. They had become SO
scarce that many of the fishermen had
given UP the business entirely and sold
or their nets and boats. The State
was appealed to to take steps for the
restoration of the industry, and at the
last session of the Legislature $3.50 was
appropriated to make experiments in
the artificial propagation of the fish. A
ike sum was appropriated by the
Pennsylvania Legislature, and it was
hoped that the work would serve to re-
store the industry to something like its
old-time profit.
