• Excerpt from The Two P's: Or the Pleasure and Profit of Cold Frames and Hot Beds, It Concerns Their Construction, the Flowers and Vegetables That Can Be Grown in Them and How to Get Started, It Sets Forth Their Gains and AdvantagesN this little booklet we intend answering some of the queries that are constantly put to us about the possibilities of cold frames. The cold frame business is partly an advertisement with us.We make them so thoroughly and of such durable materials that the money-making end is out of the question. but we do know that many of our customers become so enthusiastic over cold frame results that they want to go still further and own a practical little greenhouse, giving them a glass enclosed garden where perpetual summer exists, yielding the endless joys of favorite flowers and even melons and cucum bers for Christmas. So when they do want a greenhouse, if they have already known our cold frames, they will come to us.Perhaps there is some little confusion in the terms cold frames and hot beds. Cold frames are those warmed by the sun only. hot beds by an under bed of manure giving heat by its fermentation.Cold frames and hot beds are really sort of small greenhouses and not half the people know their possibilities, or that they will yield bountiful returns every month in the year. So many hold the idea of their being limited to growing lettuce, radishes or getting a month or so's start of your neighbor in fine stocky tomato plants, or growing ready to bloom pansies.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
