A hot-bed frame Is constructed in the usual manner, except that no deep pit; Is necessary. The frame follows the model of a cold frame, and Is sunk in the ground about six Inches. Soil is removed within it to an equal depth, and the cable is arranged on the bottom in loops, so that heat will be evenly distributed. The supply wire and cable are both connected to a thermostat, which can be set at the desired minimum temperature, so that as soon as the thermometer The Finest in General Insurance PHONES' 116 - 117 ALBERT AND McCAFFERY' Phone "V" BELTS Black 367 AND NEW WESTMINSTER Local News Tony Crawley returned, this morning on the Princess Adelaide from a holiday trip to Victoria and Vancouver.

When temperature rLses a few degrees above the minimum, heat Is shut off, and the variation between maximum and minimum temperatures is much less than with the old-iashioned hot-bed. Moveover, the electric heat does not diminish constantly, as does that furnished by manure, and there Is no danger of injury to plants from a belated frost, which may come after the heating power has been exhausted. The heating cable is usually covered with four to six inches of soil. It Ls a good idea to place a sheet of fine me.sned poultry wire an inch above the cable, with soli between. Another method is to grow- plants in flats, which are placed on a grating just above the heating cable, which is not buried in soil, and thus Is :ways open to inspection. To improve insulation and reduce current consumption, the frame should be banked with cinders, which are covered with soil, to within a few inches of the top. Plants grow better in even heat, and current consumption for small hot-beds is low. Thirty feet of cable will heat a hot-bed 3x6 feet.
