OUR FORCING BOX
Is well and solidly built of 7-8?inch cypress wood and
painted to avoid rattening. The dimensions are 12X14 inches
at base, with an 8X10 to p and depth of six inches,
The glass slide works in a grove at the top, premttdng it
being withdrawn at the will of the growth and also to facilitate
easv storage from season to season. When the glaaee* and wood
en portion' can be kept separately, the wooden boxes being of
such shape that they "nest" nicely, one within the other and take
up very little storage space.
. Cucumbers, Cabbage, Tomatoes
and other vegetables are wonderfully hastened hi their growth
and productiveness by the use of these boxes, snd la sections
where they have been used growers have met with the greatest
of success, No other mMhods of forcing bas yet been devised
and we suggest that attars be plfoed early as there is sure to be
a great demand for them as soon as their true worth is recognised
