The Garden Under Glass B • •mmm Glass, even if it be only a fragment of a window pane with which to cover a small seed box, or an old tumbler to set over a cutting in a flower pot, is one of the essential materials of a plant grower in climates where there is frost. French gardeners raise acres of plants under “cloches.” or bell-shaped glasses of various sizes, which set over the individual plants to speed up growth. Wonderful lettuce is grown this way. Glass keeps the heat in and the cold out. while letting in sunlight. This is the chief principle of the hot bed, which is an essetial institution in a garden qf any extent. The heat usu ally furnished by fermenting horse manure Is conserved and fostered by the blanket of non-conducting glass, which does not allow it to escape rap idly by radiation as would metal, or even wood. W’hen a hotbed canot be maintain ed conveniently because of the diffi culty of securing a supply of fresh horse manure as its foundation, a dif ficulty that is becoming more real each year, a cold frame or heatless hotbed can be used as a substitute, al though it cannot be utilized for a month or six weeks after the hotbed usually is at work. Hotbeds may be artificially heated by steam or hot water pipes, but only a few gardeners will be able to afTord such a luxury or will have a location Winning Out With Asters The rivalry among gardeners to produce the largest and fluffiest as ters is one of the most interesting features of the garden season and cul tural skill Is the chief factor which must be depended upon to produce the desired results. The selection of seed will in large measure tell the size of the flowers, relatively, as some varieties natur ally are larger flowered than others. As a rule the later flowering types are larger flowering than the earl iest. Asters will thrive In any soil which will produce good vegetables and they will repay the extra attn tion in the way of fertilizing. They also need cultivation all summer to be kept in unchecked and vigorous growth. Commercial fertilizer, par ticularly bone meal hoed around them at intervals of two or three weeks, is a great help. The addition of wood ashes or air slaked lime when the bed is prepared is coming to be considered an essen tial. It not only adds valuable fer tilizer to the soil in the case of ashes and sweetens the soil and releases plant food in the case of the lime, but these two act as a check to the stem rot which has given aster growers no end of trouble during the last -sea son or two. The root aphis or plant louse also is troublesome but if the soil is rich, has been limed or given wood ashes, the pest is not likely to give trouble. For August and later ftflwering it is quite as advisable to start the seed in the open ground as in the house or frame. The plants will be more vigorous in most cases. They may be sown until well into May to con tinue the succession of flowers until frost. If asters are desired with long stems for cutting they should be giv en at least a foot apart in rows two feet apart. If for massing in beds for a sheet of color nine inches to a foot each way is the closest they F.Tery Man To His Trade It was simply impossible to eat Mrs. Nevdy wed’s cake, and hubby told her so. "Please remember that you did not wed a cook," she replied haughtily. Late that night a suspicious sound was heard in the house. "Jim! Jim!” exclaimed Mrs. New lywed. “Get up at once! I’m sure there are burglars.” “Get up yourself,” came the mut tered reply from beneath the blank ets. "Y T ou didn’t marry a policeman.” —From Everybody’s Magazine.

The construction of teh hotbed is not at all complicated. In fact, any frame built to accommodate a glass cover may be used, provided it is of sufficient extent to encourage fermen tation of manure. While it is Jtest to use the standard sized hotbm sash sold by all dealers, which are 6 feet by 3 feet each, old window sash may be utilized for the purpose. Knockdown frames to hold this sash are sometimes sold, but they can be manufactured by any carpenter or by the gardener himself if he is at all handy in the use of hammer, saw and nails. The usual unit is 6 feet 2 to 3 inches by 6 feet, accommodating two standard sashes. The extra in ches are necessary to permit of the placing of a cross strip between the sashes upon which their inner edges may rest firmly. This crosspiece usu ally is grooved so that any moisture that may seep between the edgeß of the sash and the crosspiece would drain down the grove and not drip into the bed beneath. If the bed is to be permanently lo cated it is best to make the frame of heavy lumber, 2-inch stuff that may be bolted together with angle irons in the corners. If it is to be temporary, lighter lumber is available, and it is lighter to move and handle without knocking down the frame. The back of the sash should be 18 Inches high, and the front 6 inches to 10 inches. Some types are 12 to 15 inches high at the back and 8 to 10 inches in the front. These, however, are only use ful for Seedlings and low growing plants. The taller type will keep the plants until they have attained con siderable height and is also available for a cold frame in which plants from 6 to 10 inches may be wintered. A frame should always face the south, with no houses, trees, or other objects to cast a shadow over it or cut off the sun. If sloping land can be secured for the frame it is an added advantage if the land slopes to the south, as it will give more direct rays i of the sun upon the glass. should be placed dependent upon the variety and its style of growth. The succession of asters Is about the following: earliest of all, July, Queen of the Market and Royal types; August, Ostrich Plume and Victoria; September, Late Branching, Crego, and King types; September and Oc tober, American Beanty type. y. jii Palmer Engine BENJ.
