or more hoops, and laths, if staves are too heavy. This 



will answer for tomatoes, raspberries, and various other 



plants. A more 

 permanent to- 

 mato trellis is 

 shown in fig. 

 133, in which 

 slats are sup- 

 ported by & 

 shaped up- 

 rights. If put 

 1 together with 

 ^-^ screws, such a 

 trellis may be 

 carefully put 

 away in the fall 



and made to last several years. A rustic trellis, like that 



in fig. 134, is often useful in the flower garden, or it 



may serve when covered with climbers to divide the 



flower from the 



vegetable gar- 

 den. It is made 



of sticks of cedar 



or other durable 



wood, set as 



shown in the 



engraving, and 



tied where the 



bars cross one 



another with 



strong tarred 



twine. With 



these examples 



as suggestions, one will find no difficulty in making more 



elaborate supports and with other materials.
