Clear Cypress 

 Greenhouse flaterial. 



This with us means the best growth of Cypress Lumber and 

 the best grade of that growth ; and from this grade all the sap — 

 bright sap, which only experts can detect — as well as stained sap, 

 knots and other defects cut out. Others do not equal our quality 

 if they do beat our prices. It is not hard to see the reason : You 

 can not buy gold dollars at fifty cents each. Experienced growers 

 know that the best is not too good and cheapest in the long run.
