PATENTED.PATENTED.
THIS most ingenious invention is designed for the rearing of all living objects of Natural History, and is of the greatest assistance in the scientific study (under the most favourable conditions) of the wonderful economy and transformation of nature, and so constructed as to enable the specimen to develop to the fullest perfection.
No. 1, as illustrated, is a Ventilated Lid or Cover, with deep rim (which fits inside of glass case, No. 2), deep enough to prevent larvæ from spinning on the glass, thus allowing the cover, with cocoons and pupæ attached, to be removed for inspection, or stored away in large cages until they emerge.
No. 2, Glass Case, which permits the full power of light to freely enter on all parts of the specimens from every point of view.
No. 3, The Base (which the Case No. 2 fits into) is made to contain earth for the growing of plants, or for the use of those insects who bury during pupa state. The bottom of the base is perforated to allow the air to pass through the case, thus preventing over-heating, steaming, or mildew of the specimens, earth, or plants, which is very difficult to prevent in other forms of cases.
No. 4, Is a small movable Pot to contain water in which the stems of food plants may be placed that cannot be grown in the case, such as the cuttings of trees, etc., which last for a considerable time in this case.
The Pot has a perforated india-rubber cover to prevent the larvæ from entering the water.
The Largest and Cheapest Establishment in the World for every description of Natural History Apparatus, etc.
Experienced Workmen in all branches kept on the premises for special orders, etc.
