SPRING WORK.
Making Hotbeds to Start Flowers In.


There are very few W0mer who are
already planning fer their small SUI
uurhan gardens who have hotbeds in
which to start seeds during these carly
spring DAYS. vet there are many plants
which require starting under glass,
and these faay be planted in the house
no!Y if a sunny window is convenient.
Pansies. sweet william. ageratum or
floss flower African daisies and the
early aSters, to say nothing of tomato
plants. radishes and lettuce, should all
be started in the house the latter part
of ans month.
Get from the grocer some empty
boxes aHout a foot deep. and fill them
with drt half way up aft"r boring one
or two holes in the bottom to drain oil
the water.
Buy a sheet of glass from the glazier
the size of YOUR box and LAY this over
the top, and then pat il in Il sunny
Window This is an excellent hot bed
for starting ANYTHING.
Il YOU have two or three windows
where the morning and noon sun comes
in put a box in each window and plant
your seeds in them, taking the glass
off when the plants reach tile top of
the box, and finally planting them out
of doors when they are good and hardy
| and the last danger of frost is over.
Not only will the plants flower
earlier if started this way, but the
percentage of plants which come up
frou the seeds will he much larger.
Large tin baking pans may be pur-
chased at the j and 10 cent stores 10
go under the boxes to prevent the
water from running onto the floor of
the room, and the boxes should be kept
fairly well Watered. so that moisture
will generate on the glass after the
sun has been shining on it for little
while.
Ore clever housewife who had a
sunny window in the kitchen made
such a hotbed FOR it and raised rad
isnes, parsley ana young lettuce. to
say nothing of some of the smaller
herbs for the cook, who took the great
est pride and delight in her little kitch-
en- garden.
Such box if started now, will pro-
vide you with the dainty greens to
decorate and season the spring food
and shad which will soon be in the
market.
Even the dweller in city fiat may
have such hotbed if there is at least
one window i'm the rooms where the
city sunlight penetrates during the
early hours of the day. as the late af-
ternoon sun is hardly warm enough as
yet to start the seeds, unless the room
in which the box is set is very warm
from steam heat-N. Y. Evening
