WALLACE’S ELASTIC LIGATURE. 
An adaptation of Vulcanite Rubber Clotb, to supersede the use of woollen shreds for nailing 
Roses, Fruit Trees, <Sco. It possesses the following invaluable advantages over the materials 
previously used '.-^Durahilityy as it does not decay ; Cleanliness, as it does not harbour insects, and 
the ova of insects will not live in it ; Elastivifij, which prevents the cutting into the wood so often 
found in common shreds ; and Cheap7}css. 
Dr. Wau.ace, an eminent amateur horticulturist, recommends it as follows: — ‘‘For the last 
three years I have used Vulcanite Rubber Cloth to nail up my Roses and Fruit Trees, and it has 
many advantages over cloth or list. It does not rot, neither does it harbour' insects of any sort, 
and, above all, it does not soon become a tight ligature to the branch to which it may be applied. I 
am confident it only requires to bo better known to be universally required for the above purposes.”
