GLASS SUPERSEDED for HORTICULTURAL PURPOSES by 



\\7HITNEY'S CHEMICAL TRANSPARENT 



♦▼ WATERPROOF COMPOSITION, rendering Muslin, 

 Calico, or Linen, lor the Frames of Greenhouses, Pine, Melon, or 

 Cucumber Stoves, &c, impervious to rain or moisture, admitting 

 light equal to Glass, much warmer, and the plants never burn 

 under it. 



Noblemen, Gentlemen, and Gardeners will, by using this com- 

 position have the only effectual protection for their Fruit-trees 

 during the blooming season; it is a certain defence from frost, 

 sleet, wind, and blight; its transparency admits the general 

 beams of the sun, with abundance of light, which causes the 

 bloom to expand with increased luxuriance, the fruit to set and 

 swell more freely, much earlier, and a crop of fruit to any extent 

 may be warranted. The covering not to be moved by day 

 (except to thin the Fruit, which will be necessary), till the month 

 of June. It is recommended that the Calico be prepared early, 

 so as to be thoroughly dry before using. 



Sold in Bottles, with directions for use, pints, 2s. 6d., quarts, 

 4*. 6d. each. One pint is sufficient to coat four Frames twice 

 over, each Frame to be 5ft. by 3 ft. 3 in., or thereabouts. Prepared
