IS common, 

 common sense. 

 If you don't be- 



A MOST UN- 

 COMMON THING 



lieve it take a 

 trip among your florist friends and 

 you'll find about a third of them ex- 

 perimenting and testing some new 

 fangle idea in bo lers. A smooth 

 talking chap has convinced them that 

 any boiler that is economical for 

 other heating, is economical for 

 greenhouses. Let them try it out ; 

 it's costly but ion\incing. In the 

 meantime, you be on the safe side 

 and buy an H & Co. greenhouse 

 boiler made to heat greenhouses. 



Send 5 cents in stamps for boiler

OUR SPLIT COLUMN FITTINGS MAKE 

 THIS GIANT ARCH 



The Giant Arch makes a house of wonderful rigidity. It 

 both holds the house up and the roof down. Easy to erect, 

 casts least possible shade and has practically no endurance 

 limit. Put it into your house. 



Send for circular particularly describing it, and remember we make 

 every part of a sreenhouse but the glass — we sell any pafrt.

VERY man who has a 

 house with valley or passage 

 way connection, knows what 

 an ugly, heavy proposition 

 usual construction makes. 

 Here is the U-Bar way. See how effective 

 the outside is, how light, and entirely practi- 

 cal the interior is. Taken as a whole or in a 

 more exacting, critical examination of any 

 particular portion or part, the U-Bar 

 construction proves itself as more 

 nearly perfect than anything yet dem- 

 onstrated by severe test. Send for 

 that splendid book catalog so recently
