A little heat in the soil does wonders 
— in hotbeds, cold frames, in green- 
houses — prevents root rot and 
makes plants grow faster than ever 
before. That’s what G-E soil-heating 
cable does — supplies gentle, even 
growth-producing heat that enables 
you to transplant earlier than ever 
before. 
G-E heating cable is laid 4 to 6 
inches below the soil surface. It 
comes ready-to-install in sets of 30 
and 60 feet of cable formed into 15- 
foot and 30-foot “hairpins’’ with 
ends assembled into a weatherproof 
plug... for 110 volts. Also 120-foot 
sets formed into 60-foot “hairpins” 
for 220 volts. A thermostat can make 
the operation automatic. 
G-E heating cable sete are worth 
investigating. Let us show them to 
you.
