The ‘oliewits article, written by a New Jersey macket gardener, whicb we find in the Horticulturist for March, is timely and val- vable Most persons with hittle experience start their hot-beds for rearing plants too early, and never get good, stocky, hardy plants “As our operations conducted with a view to profit, and on a large scale, we flatter ourselves that in some respects our system is simpler and cheaper than that adopted in pri- vate practice, competition baving the effect of draw out all contrivances, so ag to make our manner of working as profitable as possible. “In the rising of tender pl such as tomato, egg, melon, or cucumber, there is of- ten @ great error committed in starting to rly, as they cannot be safely planted out in this district until the 20th or 25th of May. The 15thof Mareh is much more preferable for arting the hot-bed than the 15th of February; and if the use of a green-house can be had, by sowing in boxes there, there is no neeessit: for starting the hot-bed until the 10th or 15 of April, when the green-house plants that have been sown amonth previous, in the green- houses, may be planted in the frame. “Our manner of making hot-beds is different trom t in general use in pri : whether the wood work of the f: ary or portable, we invariably the reception of the prepared hot manure. This pit ts from 2 to 2¢ feet aay 6 feet wide, and of any length “ore he advan’ of this over having the hot-bed built above the ground is, that it requires less heating materi- al. and, being ali under ground, is but little effected by the outside temperature. The manure being duly prepared by two or three ing3, the pit 4 filled up—packed mode- firm—to Within 9 inches of the top of the boards, the sashes put on, om my > to “draw up’’ the beat. As s001 the heat is found to be up in the frame—but net before —four or five inches of dry soil i arly spread over the surface, in whieh is plunged a thermometer for a day or two, aud when it in- dicate: a temperature of 80 degrees, with a tendency to decline, the seed is sown or the seedlings planted, as the ease may be. As the weather Becomes warm, and the plants get vigorous, water is freely given, and air in warm, mild days. The best pretection from frost at nights we find tebe straw mats, made jong epough to overlap the zash at each end six inches, a mat for a six-feet sash requiring to be something over seven feet long. “For raising our spring plants of cabbage, caulifiowers, or lettuce, we use only cold frames ; that is, frames on the surface of the ground, without any heating meteria!l; these we uzuaily start by the first week in March. Have the ground finely pulveriged, and sow rather thin. By one month from the time of sowing we have fine, strong, hardy plants for planting in the open ground. Careful atten- tion is necessary in giving abundance of air, and by covering up by straw mais at night, so as entirely to exclude frost. “We have practiced this plan for some years past, and find it cheaper, requiring less atteniicn, and producing much better plants than those raised in hot-beds.”’ Tar NortH# —A correspondent with division tells the story: The finest pisatation between Nashville and thatef Mejor Shields.
