CULTURE.—Mushrooms may be grown in cellars, under benches of greenhouses, or in bheds, wherever the tempera- ture of 50 degrees can be kept up through the winter. The beds sh>>uld be made from November to February, according to the time the Mushroom? are wanted, and it requires about two months for them to begin bearing. Secure fresh horse dung, free from straw and litter, and mix an equal bulk of loam from an old pasture with it. Keep this under cover, taking care to turn it every day, to prevent heating, until the pile is large enough to make a bed of the required size. Three or four feet wide, eight inches deep, and any length desired, are the proper proportions for a bed, but may be varied. Prepare the mixture of loam and manure, making the bed in lavers, and pounding down each with the back oi the spade" Leave this to heat through for a few days, and as soon as the heat subsides to 90 degrees make holes in the bed about a foot apart each way, into which put pieces of the spawn two or three inches in diameter; fill up the holes with the com- post, and at the expiration of a week or ten days the spawn will have thoroughly diffused itself through the bed Spread a layer of fresh soil over the heap to the depth of two inch
