C'hauncey West said that most of the lettuce was shipped to the home mar- ket. A much larger area is devoted to lettuce than radishes.

So far this season has proved one of the most unfavorable for the start- ing of hotbeds in many years. Those who depend upon hotbeds for early plants should not overlook dates, as tliis winter weather may come to an abrupt end and then it will be hard to catch up with the work. We know of no better way than to haul plenty of manure as near to the spot as pos- sible and pile into one big flat pile and compact by driving a heavy team of iiorses over the pile twice a week, say for half an hour each time. This will compact the manure to a point where it will not burn, yet allow the heating to commence and when we get ready to push our hotbed work the material is at hand and in the best possible sliape. We always like to use pre- heated manure, as we get a more uni- form and also more lasting heat. Neve
