I thought that it might be useful to post this as a separate post even though it is related to the Chiswick and Tarring research that also have separate threads. 

This article comes from The Garden, June 21, 1902 starting on page 414.  The article is titled Fig Culture Out of Doors and Under Glass by O. Thomas.    There are details pertinent to growing figs in a cooler climate.   The article continues on the June 28, 1902 issue on page 432.

 (you may need to move around to the exact page since I am not sure if the link goes to the correct page)

It would be good if a pdf file could be made of these two articles.  (I am short on time at the moment)
