Molding Concrete Flower Pots, 
Boxes, Jardiniers, Etc. By A. A. 
Houghton. The molds for producing 
many original designs of flower pots, 
urns, flower boxes, jardiniers, etc., are 
fully illustrated and explained, so the 
worker can easily construct and oper- 
ate same. A new method of making 
plaster molds with the formulae for

be made from the one mold, is fully 
described. Price 50 cents. Orders 
may be sent to Park and Cemetery.

duce many beautiful effects in the

ornamental concrete for the ornamen- 
tation of lawns and gardens, is fully 
illustrated and described. The suc- 
cessful molds for this work are easily 
made by every one at a very slight 
cost of time and labor. Price 50
