Iron Gutter and Iron Post Construction 



FROM A PHOTOGRAPH TAKEN DURING CONSTRUCTION. 



BY using the Garland Iron Gutter and Iron Post construction in the above 

 range of six houses, each 26 feet 8 inches wide by 250 feet long, there was 

 made a saving of $1,200.00 over wooden gutter and wooden post construction. 

 The Iron Gutter and Iron Post construction cost $100.00 per house more than wooden 

 gutters and wooden posts, but there was a gain of 750 square feet of available bench 

 surface in each house. This additional bench surface is worth at least 40 cents a 

 square foot, and therefore, a total of $300.00 per house. Deducting from this the $100.00 

 extra cost of the Iron Gutters and Iron Posts, left a saving of $200.00 on each house 

 over wooden construction. And on the six houses the gain was $1,200,00. This was 

 the saving for the first year. In following years the full $1,800.00 will be saved annu- 

 ally. That the space gained is just as valuable as any other in the house is attested 

 by many of the most noted florists in the country. Aside from the saving noted this 

 range of houses will last indefinitely.
