THE FLORAL WORLD AND GARDEN GUIDE. 



101 



of the excellent rustic work in wood got 

 up by Mr. Curry, of Brook Street, 

 Upper Clapton, who is unquestionably 

 the leading man in the production of 

 rustic ornaments. These iron chairs 

 and tables of Mr. Jones's are intended 

 for those who cannot afford polished 

 yew slabs aud elegant tracery in pine 

 knots and hazel rods. The rustic table 

 here figured is suitable for use on a 

 lawn or in a summer-house. It measures 

 twenty-two inches across the top, and is 

 twenty-five inches high. To our think- 

 ing, the feet are clumsy, but that may 

 commend it to some people who are not 

 particular as to symmetry in rustic 

 work. The price of this is lis., or, if 

 bronzed, 13s. 



The small table is exquisitely de- 

 signed. It stands sixteen inches high, 

 and measures sixteen inches across the 

 top. It forms a most elegant work- 

 table, or could be stood almost any- 

 where for use — in an entrance-hall, a 

 summer-house, or conservatory. A 

 pair of them would be useful for a 

 tete-a-tete in the garden, and, when 

 done with, could be put away without 

 consuming much space. The price is 

 10s., or, if bronzed, 12s. 6d. 



The chair is also a well-modelled 

 example of iron-work, needing no com- 

 ment. It measures thirty-six inches by 

 sixteen inches. The price is 16s., or 

 20s. bronzed. 



The garden-seat is also in cast-iron, 

 and takes to pieces to be put away for 

 the winter. The design and price pleased 

 us, and we ordered one for our own use, 

 and find it equal to the figure, and alto- 

 gether a very cheap and excellent speci- 

 men of workmanship. The length of 

 the seat is four feet, and the price only 

 £1 2s., or, if bronzed, £1 10s. 



Mr. Jones has only to make known 

 the style and prices of these goods to 

 ensure customers by thousands. 



NEW MANUEING-TILE. 



On visiting the well-kept garden of our 

 friend, Mr. Hodgkinson, of Sydenham, 

 we were shown some rows of straw- 

 berries which are watered with liquid 

 manure by a very ingenious process.
