A hot-bed consists of a rectangular
frame made of boards ten inches wide
in front and fourteen in back, placed
on their edges and nailed together,
the end pieces being bevelled of and
the whole covered with sash, such as
old windows.
The beds are made in convenient
location facing the south, as on hill
side. If sheltered at the north by
hedge or fence much more heat Will
be available.
A sufficient quantity Of fresh horse
droppings containing the long straw
or leaves is piled up under cover, wet
down occasionally if necessary, and
turned every day for ten days or two
weeks. Then it will be ready for the
beds if the odor is sweet and agree
able. This material is to furnish the
heat, through decay, for three or four
months.
The framework is set on the
ground at the desired place and the
enclosed space is dug out 70 depth
of 31a to feet. The soil thrown out
can be used to advantage in banking
around the frame. The manure is
then placed in this excavation, layer
by layer, until within six inches OF
the surface Of the ground, each layer
being packed down till firm and Level.
A layer Of three parts good garden
loan to one part of rottened manure
follows, deep enough to bring the
whole to a level with the ground. The
sash is put on and the bed is left until
sticks left thrust in, show on Deins
held in the hand, diminishing tenn
perature.
The bed may be planted at any
time after this, doing it on bright, not
days, at the brightest, hottest time.
There is great variety of things that
can be grown. Lettuce plants may De
started, or those previously started
in the house may be put out; radishes
sown between, or lettuce seed for
second crop. Strawberries may De
forced in them. Dwarf beans, celery,
parsley, early peas, herbs. etc., can
be started. aud even brought TO ma
turity. But for the farm it. provides
a means of starting cabbage and To-
matoes, two very necessary crops.
When these plants are off, the bed
will still furnish heat enough to ma
ture crop of mushrooms, or better
some cucumber or melon seeds plant
ed will give an abundance of fine early
fruit.
Careful watering and care to leave
a crack of air always on to take on
the "sweat" is all the care necessary
other than careful ventilating on
bright days so that the temperature
will not rise so high that it is unfav-
orable to the crop in them. Wooden
shutters and straw mats are val
liable addition for covering the sash
on stormy days or cold nights.
If you have never tried a hot-bed
make up one this year and see for
yourself the help one of these minia-
ture greenhouses is. On many large,
private estates the gardeners have no
other means for supplying caulifiow-
ers, lettuce, mushrooms, strawberries
and other vegetables and fruits out
of season, when such things are in de-
mand, to say nothing of growing

SEASONS BATHING SURF.
Buy Mohair or Lightweight Serge
and Make with Short Skirt and j
Short or No Sleeves.

Bathing suits are growing to bt
quite important adjuncts to a summel
wardrobe. This year they're more in
teresting than ever. coming in TAILORED
styles that are as well cut and shaped
as suit.
Mohair is the best material for all
| around wear, and this year the new
mohairs will be used, with the odd diff
ferences of weave that resolve them
selves into shadow-checks and plaids
and stripes. They're twice as pretty
as the plain stuff, and make mucf
more stunning suit. There will be
more suits of mohair worn than of any
other material.
Whatever you do, don't make your
suit of fannel-it's distinctly "out.'
Use serge instead. if you want some
thing of that sort, and get light
weight wiry serge, so that it will keeI
| in shape and yet not become heavy the
instant it gets wet.
| If you get serge, or, in fact, any
wooden stuff, have it sponged before
you cut into your suit. You'll not have
the disappointment Of spelling it the
| first time you go in bathing.
High and low neck styles are equal
" good, but the favorite of all is a
style just little low-there's SO much
| more freedom of movement If the neck
isn't confined in a high collar. The
skirt should reach just to the bend OF
81 rJ,D al
ways be either short or elbow length,
| or, like the new swimming sleeve, just
a row of straps.
A good bathing suit has the gored
skirt SO popular this year. A little ex-
ira ful1ness is got into the skirt by a
box plat on each side Of the front,
running from about half way down to
the hem. The waist is trimmed with
| narrow tucks, from which narrow
bands of white extend, like pipings,
and the idea is repeated on the skirt.
The sailor collar is a particularly
good shape, and is Just wide enough
to give an athletic width to the shout
ders without coming out so far over
the tops of the sleeves as to droop
when it is wet.
Down the front are buttons set in
pairs, with, for fastenings, a cord
joined and knotted in the middle, SO
as to leave a loop to slip over each
button. Under the front of the waist
runs a wide flap, to prevent any pos
sible slipping of the fronts.
The belt and band around the bot
tom of the skirt are made Of white
and trimmed with several rows of
stitching, and these bands should be
made of the same material as the suit.
It would be pretty carried out in blue
mohair with a shadow check, and
trimmed with plain white mohair.
