Those plants which are reared in green 
or hot houses, and are raised front seed, as 
well as a great variety of tender annuals, 
are generally produced from hot-beds, made 
by collecting fresh stable dung, or tanner’s 
bark, while capable of affording a great de- 
gree of heat. Over these beds, which are 
sometimes framed in with wood-work or 
masonry, fine soil is laid to the depth of 
four, five, or six inches, or in some cases 
more, and glass frames are fitted as covers, 
in such manner as to open to any desired 
extent. When the first heat has subsided, 
and the temperature is such as not to 
scorch, the seeds of melons, cucumbers, &c. 
may be sown, or the pots containing curious 
plants may be partly buried, so as to ob- 
tain a greater degree of heat than is af- 
forded by the air without the frame. In 
this manner the most tender exotics may be. 
propagated ; indeed many become gra- 
dually so inured to our climate, as to be 
perfectly habituated ; and after fifteen or 
twenty generations (or seasons, if not very 
perishable) may in some instances be treat- 
ed the same as our tender indigenous plants. 
Such, however, as arc not disposed so to as- 
similate, must be preserved in green-houses, 
or eventually be kept in hot-houses during 
the cold months ; being there confined in 
an artificial atmosphere, highly rarified by 
means of a fire which warms a variety of 
flues that every where intersect the walls 
of the building. (See Hot-house.) 
Having said thus much, in general terms, 
regarding the trees, shrubs, and vegetables, 
ordinarily appropriated to gardens and plea- 
sure-grounds, we shall give the reader a 
brief code of instruction as to the seasons 
and modes appropriate to each individually, 
arranging the whole in form of a calendar. 
JANUARY. 
Kitchen-garden. Make up your hot beds 
for melons, cucumbers, &c. ; for early pro- 
duce select the romana and cantaloupe 
melons, and the early prickly cucumber.
