To Exhibitors and Truckers 



Vegetables, salading, herbs, their culti- 

 ^'ntion for exhibition and home use. An 

 English work by Edwin Beckett, V. M. H., 

 F. R. H. S., Member of the Royal Horticul- 

 tural Societies' Fruit and Vegetable Com- 

 mittee, Winner of numerous cups and gold 

 uiedals in highest competition, and one of 

 the greatest exhibititrs of the age. Bach 

 vegetable is given an 



Exiiaustive Treatise 



in a separate chapter, followed by another 

 special chapter on each for exhibition pur- 

 poses, composts, methods and treatment, 

 also what varieties will beat others In 

 limited packing and shipping for ex- 

 hibition. Forcing of all vegetables under 

 glass, temperature and composts. The 

 methods of setting up collections are Mr. 

 Beckett's own inventions and all illustra- 

 tions are actual photographs taken on the 

 show bench. The special methods of cul- 

 tivation for exhibition as contained in 

 this work, are perfectly adaptable to this 

 country, but intending purchasers please 

 note, the monthly calendar of seed sowing 

 is no good here, as climatic conditions 

 make planting seasons diverse. 



A Splendid Commonsense 

 Work

 theories. The practice of a lifetime's suc- 

 cess iu competition. I guarantee this the 

 greatest work ever issued on the subject 

 of Exhibition. Nearly 400 pages.
