EVER STOP that when you buy a 

 TO THINkT boiler, it is good sense to 

 get it of a firm of long 

 standing and a surety of their continuing in 

 business? You see some day your grate will 

 burn out or a casting break, and it would be a 

 pretty expensive proposition if they couldn't 

 be replaced without going to a foundry and 

 having a special casting made. Be on the safe 

 side and buy the Hitchings & Co. Old Standby, 

 "The Corrugated," or our new friend, "The 

 Greenhouse Sectional." Send for Catalog.

SASH 



Yes, sash — the kind of sash that last. Not 

 those twisty, loose jointed affairs, but all cypress 

 frames with double shoulder mortise and tenons 

 held by barbed steel dowel pins. Then through 

 the center, from side to side, runs a round steel 

 rod supporting the bars, and binding and strength- 

 ening the entire sash. They can't be beat at any 

 price. Send now for descriptive circular. 



We make every part of a greenhouse 

 but the glass. We sell any part<.

 other houses built other ways. 



THEIR EQUIPMENT 



You can well imagine the efiEect and 

 perfection that the brilliant aluminum 

 finish gives to all the steel parts, — 

 well, then, so much for pure effect — 

 now for durability. These plant beds 

 shown have slate sides, tile bottoms 

 and galvanized iron frames, making 

 an indestructible bench and one with 

 perfection of drainage. That venti- 

 lating apparatus is stripped of all 

 needless parts and brought down to a 

 simple, accurately machined, powerful 

 appliance that works with great freedom. 

 You see from the cut what a wonder- 

 fully light convincing construction the 

 combining of the roof bar and rafter 

 in one makes. Why the U-Bar house 

 is the light enduring house it is. Send 

 for the Catalog.
