In the hotbed the rows may be 3 or 4 inches apart; in the field they should be not less than 9 inches, and only this distance when hand wheel-hoes are to be used, and each alternate row is to be removed as soon as the plants begin to touch across the rows. Half a dozen seeds dropped to the inch is fairly thick sowing. As the seed is small, it must not be covered deeply; 1/4 inch is ample.

There is no such hotbed for excess of license as excess of restraint, and the arrogant fanaticism of a single virtue is apt to make men suspicious of tyranny in all the rest.

The height of the thermometer at that hour, when the evening breeze is cool and salubrious, was no doubt occasioned by the great heat absorbed by the earth during the day. In India, it is quite common to inhale the sweet and refreshing breeze of eve, when, under foot, the ground is like a hotbed.

"My father has a little place in the neighbourhood, and my grandfather lives here too." "Wells," the Tenor repeated. "I seem to know the name." "Oh, doubtless," the Boy observed. "This is a hotbed of Wellses. Israfil," he pleaded he was nestling beside the Tenor in the dim half light, watching the latter smoke "Israfil, tell me all about yourself?

You will be amused if you are not too much horrified by these puerile and degraded works, and in one of them, impudently entitled "Catholic Prayers for Church of England People" you will actually see in cold print a prayer for the "Pope of Rome." This work emanates from that hotbed of sacerdotal disloyalty, St. Alban's, Holborn.

That is, she is a girl forced into premature womanhood, like all the fruits of this hotbed climate. She is that Miss Benedet whom you helped, whom you saved how many years ago? When Willy was a schoolboy." "Well, she was saved, presumably."

Mellot, whom I should never have allowed to enter my house if I had suspected his religious views, the place has become a hotbed of false doctrine and heresy. I have been quite frightened when I have heard their conversation at dinner, lest the footmen should turn infidels! 'Perhaps, mamma, said Honoria, slyly, 'Lord Vieuxbois might convert them to something quite as bad.

Suppose I hadn't been found then what?" "In due time the money would go to a school. Boys' school." "Orphans? Blind? Cripples?" "Hardly." McKay's mouth curved sardonically. He named a preparatory school of the "exclusive" type. Rand's mouth also twisted. "That hotbed of snobbery? That twin sister to a society girls' finishing school? Might have known it, though.

Notwithstanding the heat of the weather, there was a small fire on the hearth, which, aided by the earnestness of his efforts to convince his host, put poor Sir Willoughby into a most intense perspiration. Russelton, however, seemed enviably cool, and hung over the burning wood like a cucumber on a hotbed.

On this hotbed the carcass of the pig was placed, and another layer of leaves spread over it. Some more hot stones were placed above that, over which green leaves were strewn in bunches, and, finally, the whole was covered up with earth and rubbish piled up so as to keep in the heat. "Good-morning," said Mrs Christian, using the words of salutation which she had learned from the Europeans.
