ing pots, trowels &c., under the seats in the arbor. — 

 The larger articles, such as Hot Bed frames and sash, 

 wheelbarrow &c., can be put into some other building. 

 Where the garden is not large enough to have a con- 

 venience like this, there should be a space allotted to 

 garden tools in some shed, barn or other out house. — 

 Proper hooks should be put up upon which to hang 

 ijhem, so that they may be out of the way. The 

 wooden part of the tools should be painted, and the 

 initials of the owners name, or the name itself, be 

 marked upon each. Tools, like sheep, will stray front 

 one lot to another, and should, therefore, be branded. 

 The steel parts should be cleansed before they are 

 put away, so that they may not be rusted dnd unfit 

 for use when wanted. A little care, bestowed in this 

 way, is amply repaid. Tools out of repair should be 

 mended before restored to their places.

Hot Bed Frame and Sash.— Hot beds are necessary

 are some kinds that cannot be raised in perfectitwi

 nine niches high in front, and eightem inches at the back.
