A KITCHEN GABDEH. Tha Need for Graan- Food In Spring-How to Hales a Hot Eed. As a general rule farmers do not appreciate as they ought the blessings of a good vegetable garden. The latter furnishes a pleasing variety of food which Is the best spring tonic, stimulating both health and palate at the time when lt is most needed. Many hard-working farmers will expend a large amount of time and money, on field crops, but grudge the little amount of labor required each day In the care of the garden.

They generally say they would rather buy vegetables than raise them. But they forget not merely the saving, but the abundance and freshness of -the home-grown and lately picked article. As a mere matter of economy each farmer needs a vegetable garden to supply the family table, and so contribute to the general healtn and comfort. Any surplus that there may be can be reaally disposed of. and will usually bring far higher prices than the well-eared-for held crops.

If the farmer can once be brought to realize this he will ar6 admit that the earlier he can sow the sooner he will reap the benefit of early vegetabls. To do this In our Northern latitudes lt Is necessary to start the plants In hot-beds. The word hot-bed Is a stumbling block to many farmers wbO'bave read lengthy descriptions ot the methods of making them: There is, however, no cause for alarm. The ordinary hot-bed a very simple aTalr and can be readily made from the following description: Select a dry, level spot with a southern or southeastern exposure and protected on the north, east and west either oy Duuaings or by a tight board fence. The frame for the hotbed Is generally made about six feet wide and any desired length.

The lower part of the frame should he aDout sixteen incnes high and the upper twenty-two. so that when the sashes are placed on tbey will pitch six inches In order to receive the sun's rays and throw of the rain. Old window sashes will- answer admirably for the hot-bed provided they are carefully nttea so that there are no cracks by which the air can penetrate. It must, however, be remembered taat the plants will require airing, and the sashes must be so arranged that they may be readily raised or removed when desired. The heating material lor the hot-bed should be horse dung fresh from the stable.

to the manure naif tne amount ot mrest leaves should be added, and the pile, after being well mixed, should be allowed to rest for several days until the steaming shows that fermentation has taken place. The pile should oe well trodden down. 8 Iter which the frame and the sashes may be put on and kept closed until the heat rises to that a thermometer plunged In the manure would Indicate 100 deg. In a few days the beat will subside, and when lt reaches 90 deg. five or six Inches of soli, composed of one-third well-rotted manure and two-thirds good loam, should be added.

me Dea snouia De watered every otner aay to keep the soil damp, but not made so wet as to cause the seeds to rot. During the warm days the sash may be raised to uumtt the air, but should be closed up at night during the early spring. Mats or old pieces of carpeting covering the sash will prevent tha chilling or freezing of plants. ine matter or airing is a very important one. II tne plants grow too rapidly and ap pear splndllug.

lt Is plain that the air Is too warm In the frame and that more outside air should be admitted. The slower-growing plants are the more hardy. The amount or heat and air necessary for healthy growth can only be determined by experience. When the temperature rises above 76 deg. lt is well to raise the sash a little to what extent the wind and outside temperature must, of course, determine.

Although there Is no bright sunsklne, but little air should be admitted If there Is a little cold wind. II calm, mild and sunny, more may be let In. As the season gets warmer lt will be necessary to shade the glass during the hottest part of the day. Before transplanting the sash should be partially removed for a few davs and then entirely taken away. This will igradually harden the plants, so that when tne temperature or the sou and season are suitable, they may be safely transplanted.

While all vegetables do not require the same kind of toll, for general purposes a deep black loam, well drained by a fine, sandy subsoil is the best, ihe soli should be well pulverized and made friable. Barnyard manure Is generally considered the best fertiliser. In locating a vegetable garden Its exposure to morning sun Is desirable to give early maturity to the crops. The time of transplanting for each locality varies from so many circumstances that no nxed rule can be laid down. Latitude, elevation above the sea slope of the land, drainage, soli, all have their Influence.

Wet land is colder tban dry on account of the evaporation of water, hence a sandy loam can be worked earlier than a clayey soli. The wise gardener will study his soil and learn to remember that spring is the most change, able and treacherous season and not to attempt transplanting too early. When the time for transplanting has arrived the plants should be taken up carefully and, without disturbing the roots, be placo.t In the ground previously pre a re for tlielr reception. A misty aay with a wet soli Is the best time, but If it is necessary to transplant during dry weather the holes should be filled with water, which should then be allowed to soak out before the roots are put In. The latter should be placed In nearly the same position as before removal, the soil extending to the first leaves being carefully pressed down, jne after-calture consists In keeping tne soil free from weeds and triable by constant stirring.

The plants started In hot-beds for field plantlu are lettuce, early cabbage, egg plants, tomatoes, cblnry, melons, peppers, lummer aquastiea. cucombers. beets ana i is not desirable for the general farmer to go ia tot all ot these, ha FOR GRAND OPERA.

The Germans Prefer Kye and Will Not Eat Corn Bread. In the forthcoming report of the statistician of the Department of Agriculture, the failure of Col. Cornmeal Murphy's efforts to teach Germans to eat carnmeal Is reported. Mr. Mattes, who was sent abroad to aid the apostle of cornmeal, says: "There have been efforts made In the past by the Agricultural Department to teach the Germans how to bake and eat corn bread.

The attempt to Increase the consumption of maize by this method has been a failure and never will be a success. In spite of encouraging reports sent to the Department, the, fact remains that, although a natural shortage of other breadstuffs. famine or war may Increase the consumption of maize for bread, in all cases lt will oe only temporarily. The Germans do not eat hot bread, and the other Ingredients necessary to make corn bread palatable are too expensive and not wlthlu the reach of the poorer classes, for whom the bread Is mainly Intended. Matse bread does not harmonize with the rest of the diet generally preferred by the Germans and to which they are accustomed.

Kye bread will always be the bread for the majority of Germans, and bread made from the very choicest of wheat Sour is demanded by the wealthy classes." Mr. Mattes shows, however, that Its use In distilleries and corn factories has increased. He says: "The distribution of pamphlets relative to the using of maize for brewing purposes has been the cause or many inquiries, and many brewers have made practical experiments with satisfactory results. The German method of brewing is different from the American, especially so In the process of mashing; consequently lt has been found advisable to Induce the director of the Brewers' School at Worms to make practical experiments with maize grits according to the German method of brewing. German brewers seem to hare great confidence In the work or this school, the method of brewing taught Deing tnat usea Dy most Brewers.

This season barley and rice are cheap, almost cheaper than a good quality or maize grits, which explains In part why brewers will not make extensive experiments at this time."
