ILL, 61 , Gracechurch Street 



_ ^ uw , „ , Street, Southwark, Manufacturers 



of Copper Cylindrical and Improved Conical Iron BOILERS, 

 and Conservatory and Hothouse Builders, either in Wood or 

 Iron, respectfully call the attention of the Nobility, Gentry, and 

 Nurserymen to their simple but efficacious method of warming 

 Horticultural and other Buildings by Hot Water. 



From the extensive works they have executed, references ot 

 the highest respectability can be given, and full particulars 

 furnished on application. 



We referred at pace 60 to Mr. Denton's pamphlet 

 on Land Drainage * in terms characteristic of it 

 generally as a valuable contribution to the literature 

 of its important subject : and at the time last year 

 when the greater part of it was read before the 

 London Farmers' Club, a large portion of it was 

 extracted and published ia our columns. 



Our present object in returning to the work i?, 

 therefore merely to call attention to the facts which 

 it relates in reference to the several Land Drainage 

 Companies which are in operation. The use- 

 fulness of such associations is almost universally 



We 



admitted, 

 where one 



say 



almost, because in Scotland, 



has 



the Lands improvement Company 



been taken 



to 



power to operate, objections have 

 loans for the improvement of land to be secured by a 

 rent-charge preferable to all other burdens previously 

 affecting the inheritance. Any measure, it is said,
