SPEED 



VENTILATION By that we mean, 

 in order to make 

 a perfect, easy 

 working apparatus, does not in- 

 volve alone the perfect bearings, 

 but the way the power is devel- 

 oped by the gear. Our gears are 

 so constructed as to get both 

 power and speed, and accomplish 

 both with least mechanism and a 

 certainty of endurance. This is 

 the kind of apparatus you are 

 looking for.

 That, Way 



They are always ready to take up any absolutely 

 new thing that comes along, ju t because it is 

 new, and seem to think its immediate adoption is 

 kind of a shrewd act, getting ahead of their 

 fellow growers. Now, don't mistake us, we are 

 not crying down new ideas, for we always have 

 some to market ourselves, but we do believe 

 that a developed thing, one that has been im- 

 proved and improved again, each time doing its 

 work better, stands a far more reasonable chance 

 to be serviceable and right down practical than 

 the "Johnny Jump Up" proposition. Think it 

 over, and then tuck this under your hat, thit 

 the L. & B. Encased Self Oiling Gear is all 

 that's best in fifty years of ventilating experience. 

 There are undeniable reasons why you should 

 buy it. Send for the just printed catalog, and 

 then send your order. 



We make every part for a greenhouse 

 but the glass. We sell any part<.

GREENHOUSE 

 filled with plants 

 is most interest- 

 ing as far as the 

 plants are concerned^ 

 but often rathertakingthe atten- 

 tion from the construction. We 

 want you to see construction, 

 and construction alone, for 

 if the construction is right, 

 the plants do their part. So 

 believing that the strongest 

 argument we have to offer for 

 the U-Bar house, is not 

 anything in comparison with 

 what seeing one would be : 

 we are going to leave you this week right on the inside of this house and let you compare 

 in your mind, its lightness, perfection and beauty with other kinds of houses. Then 

 if you send for the catalog, it will show exactly how and why U-bar houses are 

 built the way they are built. Pierson U=Bar Company, Designers and Builders
