Patent Sulphur Vaporiser. 



(Campbell). — An apparatus for vaporising sulphur for the destruction of 

 mildew, or other fungoid pests. It is an excellent invention, but must be 

 used with great care, otherwise the damage done to the foliage would be 

 serious. The instructions supplied with each apparatus should be followed 

 to the letter. 



Beckett's Patent Tree-ties. 



(Lawson). — This is made of strong, stout ribbing, with buckle and 

 loop attached. The great advantage of this tie is that no " rubbing " can 

 take place, as one circle of the webbing is made round the tree or stake, 

 and the tie is then tightly buckled, so that no movement can take place.
