After the manure has been placed in the pit and evenly tamped to a depth of two feet, a thin layer of straw should be placed over it and four to six inches of soil should then be added. When the soil temper-| ature has cooled down to 75 degrees, the bed is ready for use and seed may be sown.

Texture of the hotbed soil is of far greater importance than fertility. 1t should be loose and mellow. One part good garden loam, one part coarse sand and one parf moss or fine leaf mold makes a good mixture. To control fungi, seed and soil should be sterilized. . Level off the soil and firm it slightly with flat piece of wood. Sow the seed evenly, and not too heavy, or the seedlings will soon become overcrowded. After sowing, cover with finely sifted soil or sand. Fine seed requires only a light sifting of soil while larger seeds may be covered to a depth of one-half inch or more. Firm the soil lightly again after the seeds have been sown and covered. Next, water the seed with a very fine spray and do not allow the soil to every dry out completely. Cover with burlap cloth or paper to shut out the light, as seeds germinate best in darkness. As soon as seeds have germinated, remove the covering and allow sunlight to enter. On warm sunny days in late winter and early spring the sash should be partially raised, but lower it again before temperature drops in the afternoon.

Smelt Festival Set
By a combination of checking old weather records and just guessing, April 5 has been set for the date of the 11th annual Smelt Festival on the Boyne River at Boyne City, Mich. Nightly dips will continue until the run is over.
Smelt have a habit of running when they get good and ready and not before. The ‘starting bell” is when the water temperature | reaches 35 degrees. However, weather-wise old timers, are able to pick that time with unusual ac= curacy. Although smelt are found in many West Michigan streams there are but three communities which celebrate the event. No word on fthe possible date has come from East Jordan yet. The Jordan River run usually is the same time as the:’one on the Boyne.
