AQUARIUM IN BACK YARD
Something That Any Boy Who ls In
terested Can Easily Construct
by Himself.

The ideal artificial aquarium is a
tub, pail or tank sunk in the
earth in the back yard, says Edward
F. Bigelow in Boys Life, the boy
scouts magazine. When / visited
Doctor Burgin of Philadelphia |
found him engaged in the delightful
pursuit of caring for combination
aquarium formed by little ponds and
tanks in his back yard.
ANY scout who likes to use tools
can make waterproof box by oiling
the boards and using waterproof
cementat the joints. If the tank is
Sell made it will not require any
thing in the joints, since the damp
ness Of the ground in which the box
is to be sunk and the water within
the box will prevent varying and
the opening of the joints.
A good substitute for the home
made box is a half-barrel or a lard
tub, well cleaned, or an ordinary
washtub; indeed, any receptacle that
will hold water will answer the pur-
pose. 1t should be set in the earth
because it looks more natural there
with the surface of the water level
with the surrounding ground.
