The expense of building hotbed is
not very great and even II it is an item
enough plants can be sold in one season
to pay the cost of the material used
We know one man who made q hotbed
by using discarded Photographic mega
tives for glass and he sold twenty-five
cents worth Of good plants to the
square foot of the bed. With hotbed
equipment one can make considerable
money in growing and selling early
plants for transplanting. Cabbage and
tomato plants are the standard but
a large number of other vegetables
together with towering plants find
ready sale in almost all communities.
Factory made hotbed sash are three
feet wide by six feet long and cost
from S. to SIS each, according to the
quality of wood in the sash and the
size and thickness of the glass. A man
handy with tools can make his own
sash, yet the cost is only nominal and
it is usually cheapest in the end to buy
them already made. When glazed
hothed sash are, out of the question,
waterproof muslin or even common
unbleached muslin or cheese cloth can
be tackled to frame and be made to
serve q good purpose. The cloth cover
Ing does not admit as much light to
the plants as glass yet the ventilation
is better. The hotbed outside of the
sash can be made by any common
workman. The lower part is simply a
pit two or three feet deep In the ground
and the upper part wooden frame Of
common rough one or two inch lumber.
