in place, will be one-half inch be-
low the inside concrete surface.
1t is advisable to leave the box In
the form for at least "a hours and
then a great deal Of care should be
taken in removing the form SO as
not to injure the green concrete
When the forms are off, the out
side surface of the box should be
rubbed with a stiff brush or an old
broom and then the box should be
set away to harden in a well-shaded
and damp place.
A colored flower box may be pro-
duced by adding mineral colortng
to the cement or by using colored
aggregates. The finish Of the ag-
gregates is brought out after the
forms are removed by rubbing the
moist surface of the concrete with
corborundum stone. The stone
applied to the plain concrete, how
ever, gives smooth finish that 1s
entirely pleasing.
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1924-07-11

Concrete has many advantages
as material for making flower
boxes. They can be made water
tight so that walls or floors need
not be stained by dripping. Such
boxes are permanent and do not
warp or decay. They can be made
to harmonic with their surround
ings and can be made as ornament
al as desired.
There is nothing difficult about
the building of the form for a
flower box. Anyone with little
originality can easily create de-
signs to suit his own tastes and
needs. Boxes are usually made In
pairs. Suitable size is shown on
the drawing below.
The concrete should be made of
/ part portland cement and 2 parts
sand, and each box will require ap-
proNimately sack of cement and
2 cubic feet of sand. The sand
should be clean and the water used
