Sashes for Hot-Beds. 
Extra well made from thoroughly seasoned lumber, frame 1 % in., 3x6 ft., $3.50 each. 
Hot-Bed, Sash and Frame , Complete. 
For Violets, Flower Seeds and Early Vegetables. 
Having received numerous inquiries for a Hot-Bed Sash that was light, 
JV and easy to handle, we decided that it would be a good idea to construct a 
Kjg Sash and Frame Complete that would meet the requirements. 
After carefully studying several designs we adopted the one shown in cut, 
as most desirable in all particulars. 
The outside dimensions of Frame are three feet one inch long, and four 
^feet eight inches wide, made of one inch Cypress; the back piece is nine 
inches wide and the front piece is six inches wide, grooved together, and held in place by eight strong hooks. 
Being fastened together by the hooks enables one to take it apart at the end of the season and store away in a 
very compact form, which we consider an essential feature, as by so doing the frame may be made to last for years. 
The Sash is also made of Cypress of one and one-half inch stock, put together and glazed in the very best man¬ 
ner. On the under side of Sash is fastened a cleat, one inch from the outer edge, all around, thus forming a rabbet 
which makes the frame very tight, preventing the cold air from entering or the heat escaping. 
I lie construction of the frame is so simple that any one with a hammer and screwdriver can put it together in a 
few minutes. We furnish hinges and screws for attaching the sash to back of frame; also the hook and eyes for 
comers. 
In offering this Special Hot-Bed to our customers we feel that we have something that will give entire satisfac¬ 
tion and will supply a long felt want. 
Our price for Frame and Sash complete is only $6.00 delivered at the railroad in Boston.
