OUR. IRON RAFTER 

 GREENHOUSE 



The materials cost more than the less enduring 

 construction, but they cost less to erect. 



QUALITY and QUANTITY of blooms exceed 

 other bouses, as you know. 



You gain in erection cos's ; save in repair costs 

 and get more money-out of your stock. You have 

 a house that will Inst fifty years and longer. 



Write for our figures on your next house.

that we make every part of a greenhouse 

 but the glass — that we sell any part. 



You remember us on the bigger things, but 

 often it never enters your head to think of 

 sending to us for a tub of putty or a few 

 fittings. 



But you ought to — and here's why ; 

 Our sole business is manufacturing every 

 part of a greenhouse. We give it, and it 

 only, our undivided attention. 



Everything we make is made with an exact 

 knowledge of just what conditions it must 

 meet, and that is why an ever increasing 

 number from all over the country are con- 

 tinually sending us their orders for just the 

 smaller things. 



You know how well we do the big things, 

 and if you only stop to think, it is just be- 

 cause of well done little things that it is 

 possible for us to do so thoroughly and en- 

 duringly the big things. So whei her white 

 lead, glazing nails, bench t ttings, it mat- 

 ters not what, first write to

WHERE THE PRACTICAL COUNTED FIRST 



This range of circular palm house and wings we erected in Pittsburg, Pa. 



The owner in selecting his greenhouse builders insisted on the following construction features. 



First, the houses must be of greatest endurance, so there would be no constant repair costs. Second, they rmist grow the 



greatest number of flowers with least expenditure for labor and coal. Third, they must be a "thing of beauty." because 



they were to be located close to the residence, and in full view from the driveway and street. 



The U-Bar won out. and it is winning out every day for these very same reasons. So it is up to you to know every point 



about the U-Bar, and the catalog tells them — Send for it.
