THE MELON PIT. 83 
pit, at 3s. each = 23. 5s. for Melons; and then the pit 
could be used from July until November for bringing 
on flowering plants, such as Primulas, Cinerarias, &e. 
without heat ; so that it is plain enough that the cost 
of such a pit can be repaid by its own capacity within 
one year.
