<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gregsglass, post: 39607, member: 78&quot;]Hi,</p><p>&nbsp; As to smut lanterns, we used those in the cold frames if a bad frost was coming. They were round ribbed iron/steel that burned kerosene. Usually you saw them on the edges of road work instead of flairs that burned out. These would burn for hours and did give off a lot of soot. Smut was a shortened term for smothering lantern.</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
