Frames and sash should be well
painted to preserve them. There are
1926 square inches in such a frame.
and allowing three square inches to
the plant, one can have over 1000
plants per frame.
Good rich soil is used, and the under
soil is made quite loose to give a
chance for root growth. 1t is best to
grow the plants in the open and trans.
plant on the approach of severe
weather.
Frames of larger size are not 40
easily handled, nor can the same pro-
lection be given In them. On mild
days we give light to the plants by
removing outer sash, and II safe. we
raise the inner sash to admit fresh
air.
These frames are not expensive
where one can do his own work. and
they add a good per cent. to the 10
vestment

WHY HE GOT NO ANSWER.
Traveller Learns That Policeman Wa.
StlckIer for Etiquette.

The policemen of Montevideo are
mostly of Indian origin. They are
always courteous and polite, but they
are great sticklers for etiquette.
Through ignorance OF their customs
a foreigner sometimes finds himself
in an embarrassing situation.
One day last summer we'll dressed
American gentleman stepped up to a
policeman in the Plaza Independence
and said, in good Spanish:
"Will you please tell me where the
Gale Rincon ISL"
The policeman looked haughtily at
the stranger, and turned away.
The American tried again, with still
more courtesy.
Would you be so extremely kind
as to accommodatingly tell me where
the Gale Rincon is!
-Tv rrs astonishment the policeman
retorted:
you have no manners, sir"
Needless to say, the American was
quite abashed; but he had to find
the Gale Rincon, so he put the ques.
ton to Spanish youth who was
standing near. The youth answered
cordially. and went some little dis
lance to direct the stranger properly.
After the American had thanked him,
he asked:
why did the policeman refuse to
answer me?'
Because replied the youth, when
you addressed him, you neglected to
take off your hat!"-Youths Com
