S^'I&SrtIOII.DWSIMk Surface Hotbed For Home Use A surface bed is made by patting properly heating bone manure in com . pacted layer* making a flat pile about 15 to 18 inches high and a foot longer and wider than the frame to be placed !on top of it. The frame need be of any convenient size to fit tbe aaah available. It should be, however, facing the south and the front aide should be 4 to 6 inches , lower than the back, in order to get the most direct rays of the sun and provide for water running off. Care should be taken that the front side is of sufficient width to allow head room for the plants after tbe soil has been put ia. Usually a board 10 or 12 inches wide in front and 14 to 18 inches wide in the back is neces sary. Manflre should be banked up about the sides to furnish protection. Four to six inches of soil is usually placed in the bed and seeds may be sown directly in this soil or sown in boxes and the boxes placed on the surface of the soil Where seed is sown directly in the bed, violent heating which usually takes place | immediately after the bed is made should have subsided. Watering should be done only as necessary, and ventilation should be given regularly, in order to keep the plants in a thrifty growing con dition.—J. J. Gardner, Colorado Agri cultural College, Fort Collins, Colorado. , • Tbe legal fence bug is now hanging in the Colorado legislature on the following points: A legal fence must have three barbed wires with, barbs not more than 1 six inches apart, the wire consisting of twostrandsof No. 12gauge wire twisted. : Posts must be set eighteen inches in the ground, must be not less than three , inches in diameter at the small end and ! must be set not more than thirty-three | feet apart with substantial stays every 1 sixteen and one-half feet. The top wire ; must be forty-six inches from the ! ground, the second wire fourteen inches below the top wire and the third wire twelve inches below the second wire. The measure provides that animals which break through any legal fence i may be held by the farmer on whose : property they trespass as security for the recovery of damages to crops. Set tlements are to be made either by arbi tration or court suits. Provisions of the present statutes regarding partition fences with a few changes are to be re enacted. It ia made unlawful for an owner of animals to allow them to graze or run at large in any road, lane or pub lic highway that is fenced on both sides with a legal fence. Persons taking up trespassing animals shall care for them, but are to be allowed reasonable com pensation. The willful breaking down of fences and gates and the taking up of animals without compliance with the act are made penal violations punish able by fines not less than $lO nor more than S6OO or imprisonment not to exceed sixty days or both. Tbe fence definition ia a compromise between the farmers and the stock men, according to Senator Means, who sponsored the bilL— The Denver Field and Farm. A book is always an appropriate pres ent.
