L raised out of season or ahead Of
the natural time command higher
prices and a more ready market
than those grown at normal periods.
For many years, truck gardeners,
horticulturists and florists have used
manure hotbeds to help reach that
choice market but, because of the
uncertainty Of the results which
can be expected and because of the
difficulty of obtaining adequate sup
plies of satisfactory manure, other
methods of providing heat are used,
among them electricity, steam, hot
water and hot air.
The most modern hotbeds are
heated electrically by means of a
special metallic-sheathed resistance
cable either buried in the earth, laid
on top of the soil or fastened to the
sides of the bed. Although only used
in this country for about decade,
the results from electric hotbeds
have been so satisfactory that thou
sands of new installations are being
made each year.
The advantages of electric soil
heating over the older methods in
clude: Less time and labor required
to construct and operate the beds;
temperature automatically controlled
within narrow limits; cheaper, in
many instances, than other sources
of heat; freedom from harmful
fumes; less danger of soil contami-
nation; beds do not have to be re-
charged each time they are used, re-
quiring only the turn of a switch to

between brain and muscle. There is
a series of repeated tiny spasms
throughout the nerves of the body
causing an attendant reaction in the
muscles which results in what we
call trembling. Intense anger, joy

in less time; higher percentage of

and vigorous plants; temperature
easily changed to force or retard
plant growth as conditions demand;
may be used to grow crops (such
as lettuce and radishes) during win
ter; equipment lasts for years; clean
and agreeable to work.
Current consumption of electric
hotbeds varies with several factors:
Geographic location; seasonal condi-
tons; temperatures maintained; con-
struction, exposure, insulation and
covering of beds and care in manage
ment. In consequence, a standard
sash or frame c. x 80 may require
from 80 kw.-hr. per month to a maxi
mum of $50 kw.-hr. during the cold
est weather. At the three-cent rate Ga
lower one often is available), the
monthly power cost per sash thus
may vary from 5000 to $3.50, with
probable range of $1.35 to $2.25 per
month over the entire heating season
when outside temperatures average
around freezing and the bed is MAIN
tanned at go degrees.
Excluding labor, but including all
electrical and building supplies, the
total installation cost of completely
new units varies from $1,000 to $500
per sash, depending upon the size of
the bed, its construction and the
type and voltage of electrical equip
ment employed.
Full information on the construc-
ton, installation, operation and cost
of electric hotbeds may be obtained

Sunset Peace

Softly the gold is fading
Out of the sunset skies;
Softly the stars are peeping,
Shining like angel eyes;
Softly the flown heads bending,
Sleep by the dusty way;
Softly the winds are breathing
Peace to the dying day.
Sweet is the peace of even,
Sweet to the weary one;
Sweet is the twilight stealing
After the day is done;
Come with thy tender healing
Come with thy sweet release;
Come to the hearts that need thee,
Welcome, oh sunset peace.

iii. Judgment and Compassion
wv l2-1i).
What remarkable picture! In the
midst of flaming judgment and de-
struction we find loving compassion
upon the blind and the lame. Folk
who think that Christ has no mes
sage but love need to look on Him
as He cleanses the temple. On the
other hand, those who think that He
has no word but judgment need to
behold Him as He stands in the
midst of the overturned tables and
debris and heals the needy. Incon-
sistent? Not at all God is love, but
He is also absolute holiness.
|. Jesus Cast Out and Over
threw wv. IL, 49,. He knew where
to begin to cleanse the city. He
started in the temple. Absolutely
right is the man who suggested
that the place to start to clean up
city is not in the slums but in the
churches. You will be ready to clean
out the tavern or that other low
place where the gang hangs out in
your town after you have cleaned
out the church. The same is true
If the individual. A regenerated
neart will bring a reformed life, not
vice versa.
2. He Healed Them" ". 14. The
very hands which had just over
thrown the tables and cast out the
money-changers now gently touched
the lame and the blind with heal
ing. The eyes which had blazed
with holy indignation now shone with
owe and compassion. The scene of
Judgment and chaos became the
house of prayer and of answered
prayer. On the very spot where one
nan had received condemnation, an
iother received healing. Each one
received that which he sought by his
action. How will you, my dear
reader, meet Jesus-as your Judge
,r as your Saviour? Yeu must make
he choice.

such are the stirring events which
face us as we enter with our Lord
into the last week of His earthly
life. The first event in that sequence

today, namely, the coming of the
King TO Jerusalem. Jesus on this
occasion did very dramatic and
unusual thing, fact which indicates
that here is an incident of extraor-
binary import to which we do well
to give careful study.
