vent tlie sun from bui'ning the plants, and 

 to hinder a too speedy evaporation of moisture. 



In warm climates, canvas cloth will answer 

 best for these shades, to be fixed during the 

 heat of the day, so as to prevent the surface 

 of the mould from becoming dry, and if a little 

 water be sprinkled upon the canvas, once or 

 twice during the day, it will keep it tight, and 

 produce a moist atmosphere underneath, which 

 will greatly facilitate the growth of the plants. 



These shades should be removed at the set- 

 ting of the sun, and the plants then watered, 

 when they will also receive the benefit of the 

 dews during the night. In the morning the 

 shades should be replaced, and the plants thus 

 protected till they can stand the open air, to 

 which they should gradually be enured by re- 

 moving the shades daily more and more, till they 

 can be wholly taken away.
