coming up to unlock the box, said:
Don't do thatr'
"Why notg" he qucried. I've been
doing it for years. 1t doesn't hurt the
box. Other fellows and myself have

A Fine Climate.

A mild summer climate is a de-
sirable attraction to homeseekers.
Strange as it may seem, northern
people have an idea that the Texas
summer is of the hallean variety
when, as a matter of fact, no state
on the whole has a better summer
climate. Acutes suffering from heat
which is common to northern CEN
tiers of population in June, July and
August, is unknown to Texas.
Prostrations are very rare and ia
talities from sunstroke are un-
known. 1t is true that the temper
ature sometimes strikes the 100
mark, but the cooling breezes which
sweep over the prairies neutralize
the heat and make life worth living
Another feature of the northwest
Texas climate is that the nights are
cool and refreshing, the midnight
temperature frequently reaching
below 70. The range of tempera-
ture, therefore, is from 6S to 70
minimum, and 90 to 100 maximum,
showing a falling of az to 90 de-
grees' This is an atmosphere con-
tanning minimum of humidity and
makes an ideal summer climate.

HOTBEDS.
How Made and How Managcd-Now'a
the Time.


How Made and How Managed-Now's
the Time.
A hotbed Is practically nothing more
than board edged pit In which there
is fermenting manure covered with
several inches of soil. The top Of the
hotbed is rooted with sashes, which
usually measure about by feet each.
At night straw or other mat Is laid
over the glass to keep out the cold.
The space between the soil and the
glass must nowhere measure less than
about six inches in the start. The soil
will sink as the manure ferments.
Hotbeds are usually made of inch
boards. If the boards on the back Of
the frame are twelve inches above
ground those In front should be sew
eral inches lower, thus giving a slant
to the sashes.
If two or three good coatlngs of gas
tar are applied hot to the inside Of the
boards which come in contact with the
earth 1t will help to preserve them
from decay. The boards, however,
must be perfectly dry before coating
with tar.
