Simplicity in Greenhouse Construction. 



During our long experience we have not only made many improve- 

 ments in greenhouses, but we have so simplified the construction that 

 building a greenhouse is no longer a matter so full of complications as 

 to tax the patience and the ingenuity of even the most intelligent 

 mechanic. Our 



Clear Cypress Building Material 



is worked out in the best manner ready to be put up, and we furnish our 

 customers such complete detail drawings that any workman of only ordi- 

 nary capabilities can put it up correctly.
