MASTICA 

 GLAZINC- 

 MA CHINE. 

 SI. 25 each. 



Every florist has experienced difficulty in obtaining putty (whether 

 ordinary or white lead), for glazing, that is satisfactory for any length 

 of time. The fact is, putty is not adapted for greenhouse work. 



After much study the inventor of "Mastica" decided that the com- 

 pcsition must be of different material, and the qualities must be 

 elastic and tenacious to admit of expansion and contraction without 

 cracking. "Mastica." when applied, in a few hours forms a skin or 

 film on the entire mass hermitically sealing the substance and pre- 

 venting the evaporation of the liquids, and remains in a soft pliable 

 and elastic condition for years. "Mastica" is of great value in going 

 over old houses with a putty bulb or machine on the outside of sash as 

 it makes it perfectly tight and saves the expense of relaying the glass. 



Prices of Mastica (Soft for machine application,) 50c. per 

 quart, 75c. per H gallon; $1.25 per gallon. 



The best and cheap- 

 est tying material
