Hon- Made and How M«n«*fd-Sow'< the Time. A liotbed is practically nothing more than a board edged pit in which there is fermenting manure covered with several inches of soil. The top of the hotbed is roofed with sashes, which usually measure about 3 by 0 feet each, j At night a 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 sis inches iu 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 sev eral Inches lower, thus giving a slant to the sashes. If two or three good coatings of gas tar are ajtplied hot to the inside of the boards which come In contact with the earth it will help to preserve them ; from decay. The boards, however, must bo perfectly dry before coating with tar. About the latter part of February or the beginning of March, collect under fl> SECTION OF HOTBED, shelter some strawy manure and let it heat for about a week before using, turning it occasionally. Select a sunny (southeast) exposure for the hotbed. The pit for the hotbed may be one to three feet deep. Good drainage is es sential. It is the practice of some gardeners to make the bed entirely above ground. Iu that case the frame should be at ev ery point about a foot inside the edge of the manure heap. An Inch or two of coarse stuff is put. at the bottom of the bed, and upon this eighteen Inches to three feet of horse manure. Next comes a layer of leaf mold and on top four or tive inches of fine garden loam. The manure should be trodden down in layers about six inches thick.—Farm Journal. EARLY LAMBS. For Profit They Miint Be Kept MOT- Ing Rapidly Alonsr. First decide upou what you wish to raise, early or late lambs. Have an ob ject iu view, and work to attain that object. The early lamb will cost you more Intelligent labor and feed than the late lamb, but if environments are favorable and you have a good market for early lambs you will find them the most profitable. Now, if you have de cided in favor of the early lamb, first of Importance is the selection of ewes which will breed early and are good milkers, as an abundance of milk is essential in the production of choice lambs. Get a pure bred ram of an early maturing mutton breed. At lambing time, especially in cold weath er, close attention is very necessary. See that each lamb is on its feet and partaking of a square meal before it becomes chilled. Feeding the Ewe. For profit the early lauibs must move along rapidly from birth to market — that is, keep them doing their best ev ery day. First look to the ewe; from her the lamb gets the important part of his feed. Feed the ewe generously of protein feeds to be turned readily Into milk. Milk, being rich iu protein, is just what the lamb needs to make mus cle, nerve and blood, to grow his frame and build up bis young tissue. Feed In flat bottom troughs, as lambs are apt to bolt their food if fed from V shaped troughs. The ewe should be fed a light grain ration the first day or two after lambing, then increase the ration until you reach as large a quantity as tho ewe will consume, the object being to force this animal for milk production same as the dairy cow.—National Stock man.

E. Tligrne, Ohio. MARKET GARDENING. Dig Pr«flta From Intensive Culture ou Small I'lnce.H. The nearer the farm Is to the market the smaller we are apt to find it in area and the more intensive its style of business, with a large proportion of Its area under glass. One of the small est places Is one In Methuen, Mass., where there are only one and one-half ucres, but from which the gardener with the aid of two men sells nearly $2,500 worth of vegetables a year. A farm uf three and one-half acres In Belmont has produced far greater re sults. This place is mostly covered with greenhouses. The farmer Is an expert grower of lettuce, oueuinbers, radishes, water eress, parsley and to matoes. According to his own state ment he has made £40,000 profit In ten years. There is another farm in Bel mont about the same size as this one which has as much glass on it, and this farmer has been even more successful than his neighbor before spoken of. These two little farms are only four miles from Boston, and the salesmen are In the market every day, thus keep ing posted. They have the stuff every day and so can dispose of it to advan tage when short or when plentiful. Shrewd lluMliienn. These two men have been very shrewd business men as well as good growers. They have had very little No. 2 stuff. They have worked with their men and consulted them as to methods of doing the work. They have kept strict account of their busi ness. No man knows better what to do than the one who Is on the spot or doing the work. Often the workmen will discover some way of doing which is more economical in time or make-: tho goods look better when exposed for 1 CileT und ttis way will be adopted.' The amount of manure used on these small pieces will average thirty cords per acre. On a market garden of twenty-live to thirty-five acres It will average eighteen to twenty cords, but on those of 7o to 100 acres you will find a different style of business and the farmer using scarcely fifteen cords , per acre.—ll. M. Howard Before Mas-! sachusetts Board of Agriculture. FEEDING VALUE OF ROOTS. When Fanner* Get the Right TwUt on the Bnaineaa. There are few American farmers who grow roots as a regular crop year after year. One reason is because hand labor is necessary to a certain ex- ] tent; another reason Is that their value . Is not appreciated by stockmen because they do not know how to feed them. When a stock fanner raises a crop of roots for the first time he Is !'able to feed thetn in excess; then because re sults are not satisfactory he makes up his mind that he does not like roots td feed. The cost of growing roots Is being reduced by improved machinery, due in large measure to the successful growing of sugar beets. Within ten years great progress has been made in this direction, and the stock grower who wishes to raise roots for feeding purposes is profiting thereby. Condtmental Kffeet. Ihere are cooling, healthful proper ties about roots not possessed by any plants grown above ground. Roots are stimulating to a certain extent and ap petizing when fed in connection with ordinary farm roughage, which ac counts for the increased consumption of other feeds when roots are used. These properties are approached but not equaled by silage. There Is a epndimental value to roots when properly fed that gives stock the sleek, comfortable appearance that Is characteristic of thoroughbred stock on the best English and Canadian stock farms. The English farmer un derstands how to grow roots and how to feed them to the best advantage. When American stock farmers get the right twist on the business they will be just as enthusiastic over their field of roots for winter succulence as the old stock raiser In England or Canada, concludes Farm, Field and Fireside. Soda aa Plant Food. Five years of experiment leads the Rhode Island experiment station to the conclusion that soda cannot perform all the functions attributed to potash, for where soda was substituted entire ly for potash crops became poorer from year to year. Another result Is that soda Is not as effective as potash as a plant nutrient. It is not disputed, however, that soda is of some use with many varieties of plants when the sup ply of potash is limited. NEWS NOTES It is reported that Dr. Galloway of Ihe department of agriculture has sav td the winter lettuce industry by de veloping a stock of plants immune to the forcing house diseases that have been prevalent of late years. The South African goat Sultan, Bheared eighteen and a half pounds of mohair at one clipping. This Is said to be the record in this country and prob ably the world's record. According to California statistics, during the last season 107,192,000 pounds of green fruit were shipped east aa compared with 135,110,000 pounds for the season before, a gain of €2,082,000 pounds. Wood distillation as a means of utilising waste in lumbering is a mat ter of growing interest in tills country. While expressing high appreciation of Mr. Burbank and giving all due credit for his real achievements in plant growing, more than one of our agri cultural journals Is scoring the fad of "Burbankitis" that has recently swept throucb *' LIFELESS RIDERS. ThrMlluK lucidenta Colled From tkt llorror* of War. A veteran of the British army in In dia once saw a strange sight on a bat tlefield. As he tells the story a squad ron of cavalry had been held in reserve under cover of a field battery and an infantry regiment. The artillery duel had ended. The assault of the enemy iu overwhelming numbers had been re pulsed by the steadiness of the infan try. While a cloud of smoke hung over the field the cavalry received an order to charge with drawn sabers. The troopers started in close order for the enemy's line. Midway they met a destructive fire from earthworks In front of them and from the woods on their Hank. A young cavalryman, with his saber drawn, was shot In the heart while leading in the first file. The horse halted, swerved to the right and turned back, but the rider kept his seat with out flinching. The other troopers went on, carried the earthwork by storm, rode at full gallop after tho retreating force and converted defeat into rout. The dead trooper meanwhile was re turning with white face and with the blood streaming from his wound. Un der his nerveless hand the horse re ceived neither check nor leading and made Its own way toward tho infantry, which was now advancing rapidly. As the smoke lifted the soldiers saw the soiltary rider coming, with one hand in a death grip upou the saddle, while the other still held the sword rigidly clasped. It was a sight never to be forgotten— the galloping horse, with the dead cav alryman still mounted and looking grim and fierce. It was not until the rkler had gone fifty yards from the spot where he had been killed that he rolled off the horse. A similar story is told of Captain No lan, who delivered the fatal blundering order for the charge of the famous Light brigade. He was seen on the field of Balaklava, riding from the hills where the staff officers were drawn up to the quarter where the brigade was station ed. The charge began, and what was left of the brigade returned In broken groups. At last Captain Nolan was seen gal loping rapidly toward the center of the field. He was firmly seated, straight as an arrow and riding well. Suddenly the horse swerved and the rider toppled over. The officers who were nearest rushed forward, but when they lifted him from tho ground they found him lifeless. Like the Indian saberman, he had been shot and instantly killed, but his horse had carried him safely across the field, out of tho reach of tho pursuing Cos sacks. The Minister** Tartan. Every clan of Scottish higlilanders had its own tartan, or striped colored cloth, of which the kilt and plaid wero made. It U not so well known, how ever, that the clergy of the lilghland ers down to a recent date used a tartan for their weekday dress. The tartan of the clergy, as it was called, was a sober cloth of white, black and gTay stripes. Ministers who did not care to don the kilt almost always wore the plaid or mantle of this material. Iu the eighteenth century wheu tho high laoders seldom went unarmed it was the custom of some clergymen to wear swords even at church and to be ac companied by a gillie, or servant, car rying a bow and sheath of arrows. Nothing could better illustrate the dis turbed state of those times than this practice ou the part of the men who ! were pre-eminently preachers of peace ; and universal good will.—Scotsman.
