eave: platenS 



Here are two kinds : our regular Standard 

 Galvanized Steel Eave, which is the sim- 

 plest and most practical — and the same 

 plate equipped with a Galvanized Steel 

 Drip Gutter. This last is a combination 

 which we patented as long ago as 

 December, 1901. 



Both these plates have the cast iron roof 

 bar brackets which firmly secure the bars 

 to the plates and prevent end rot.

INDESTRUCTIBLE BENCI 



Will last a life time — no repairs — easy to erect — 

 easy to tal^e down — perfect drainage — costs less 

 in the end than concrete. Write Lord & Burnham 

 Connpany. Irvington-on-Hudson. N.Y. for circular. 



For Example, Take the U-Bar Palm House 



and you can see at once how 

 decidedly more effective this 

 curvilinear, circular house is 

 than a square shaped affair, 

 or even one with octagon cor- 

 ners, would be. Fact is, the 

 U-Bar is the only construc- 

 tion that can be used in build- 

 ing a successful curvilinear 

 palm house — it is the most 

 adaptable cons'ruction of the 

 day. 



It is the ideal construction for 

 private estates, parks, ptblic 

 institutions and florists' show 

 rooms.
