BURLAP HOT-BED AND COLD FRAME MATS. 



These are made of strong Burlap bagging, warmly lined with waste wool and cotton 

 which is quilted in to hold position. They are excellent substitutes for straw mats, 

 being, if anything, warmer than straw, more easily handled, less bulky, and they do 

 not harbor mice or other vermin. We were afraid 

 that they would hold moisture, and either rot or mil- 

 dew, but our trial for two winters proves them to be 

 far more durable than stiaw mats.

MASTICA FOR GLAZING 



Greenhouses, Sashes, etc , new and old. It is Elastic, Ad- 

 hesive and easily applied; it is not affected 

 by dampness, heat or cold. 



MASTICA 

 GLAZING 

 MACHINE 



$1.15 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 

 adopted for greenhouse work. 

 After much study, the inventor of " Mastica " decided that the composition must be 

 of different material, and the qualities must be elastic and tenacious to admit of expan- 

 sion and contraction without cracking. " Mastica " when applied, in a few hours 

 forms a skin or film on the entire mass hermetically sealing the substance and pre- 

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

 for vears. 44 Mastica" is of great value in going over old houses with a Ma'tica 

 machine on the outside of sash as it makes it perfectly tight and saves the expense of 

 relaying the glass. One gallon is sufficient for about 300 lineal feet used either for 

 bedding or over glazing. 



Prices for Mastica, soft for machine application, 4c c. per quart; 70c. per half 

 gallon ; $1.25 per gallon. 



VAN REYPER "PERFECT" 



GLAZING POINTS 



The finest glazing points on the nurket ; the glass can- 

 not slip ; they are quick and easily put in with special 

 pincers ; no " rights and lefts " to bother with. 



Price, per box of 1,000, 6cc; or by mail, 75c. Pin- 

 cers, price per pair, 45c; or by mail, 50c. 



CHEAP GLAZING TOOL 



For the price this is a very satisfactory little implement 

 — cuts with a little steel wheel. 



Price 6c. each, 65c perdoz. Postage 2c. each extra. 



IMPROVED RUBBER PUTTY BULBS. 



An excellent article for glaring. A pressure with the hand ejects the putty prepared 

 as per directions accompanying each, and by running it along the sash bars the work 

 is done quickly, and makes a durable, tight and neat joint. Does not daub the glass 

 nor stick to the hand. Price, 90c. each, by mail, $x.oo each.

Perfection Fumigators. 



Alake Moist Smoke. 

 This fumigator will last for years ; 

 it has a water tank between the tire 

 and the outside, preventing burning 

 out. The tank should be filled with 

 tobacco water, from which a vapor 

 arises and mixes with the dry smoke 

 from the stems, producing a damp- 

 ened smoke more dense and lessinjurious to delicate foliate than 

 from any other fumigator made. Outside fumigating can also 

 be done with the Perfection ; the cast-iron lid is made so a hose 

 can be attached, and all the outlets for the smoke (except through 

 the hose) can be closed off. No. 1 holds one peck of stems $2 70; 

 No. 2 holds half bushel of stems, $3.35; No. 3 holds % tushel of stems, $4.00
