APPENDIX 3. 

 LIST OF TOOLS AND APPLIANCES. 



In the following list the whole of the tools and 

 appliances which it would be advantageous to have, 

 in order fully to carry out the experimental work of 

 the book, are given. It should, however, be clearly 

 understood that no school is recommended to obtain 

 the complete set, at the commencement. Many of 

 the articles would not be required, at any rate during 

 the first year. The comparatively few essential 

 items should therefore be obtained first, such as a 

 fork, flower pots, wooden boxes, etc., and the others 

 added as found necessary. Many of the articles are 

 themselves in everyday use, and for many of 

 the others .ordinary household articles could be 

 substituted, e.g. jam pots for the wide mouthed 

 bottles, empty soap boxes and wine cases for the 

 plant boxes, etc.
