HENDERSONS MODERN HOT BEDS, Cold Frames, Etc. 



Henderson's Electrically Heated Hot Bed 



A modern sci- 

 entific electrical, 

 sanitary plant 

 nursery. Hereto- 

 fore the hot bed 

 was always hid- 

 den in an unseen 

 corner of the 

 garden because 

 of its unattrac- 

 tiveness. Hender- 

 son's Electrically 

 Heated Hot Bed 

 is not only effici- 

 ent but also attractive. It is neatly built, painted neutral gray, 

 and can be placed near the house, as there is no need to hide it. 

 The electrical heating unit is manufactured by Westinghouse and 

 carries the Westinghouse guarantee. The 1936 model is so constructed 

 that the heat spreads out uniformly over the entire area of the hot bed, 

 which is covered with 2 half length 3 x 3 ft. sash. The heat may be 

 adjusted to suit the temperature and the automatic Built-in Watch- 

 man thermostat maintains a constant heat without attention. The 

 cost of operation is very low. The average consumption of current 

 ranges from 1 Yi to 2 Y% kilowatt hours per day. Based upon a rate of 

 3 cents per kilowatt hour the operation cost will range from 4J-3 to 

 7 Yi cents per day. 



When the seedlings are far enough advanced they can be hardened 

 by turning off the current, when it becomes a cold frame. Complete 

 directions included.

 $10.00. Shipping weight 16 lbs. Purchaser pays transportation.
