ALL of which, of course, means more light and 

 greater freedom in working the lioiise. 

 •Tiist to give you a rough idea how it works 

 out, let's take a house 200 feet long and 70 feet 

 v.iile. In the standard Fhit liafter construction, 

 you must have 25 rafters, no matter whose con- 

 struction it is. In the Cantilever construction, 

 you need Init 17. 



16 purlins are required with Flat Eafter, only IS 

 with the Cantilever. 4 columns with the Flat 

 Eafter ; 2 only with the Cantilever. 



Admittedly the rafter is of necessity deeper, but 

 it's being open lattice constructed, it casts no more 

 shade than shallower rafters of solid iron. 



As to price — when you get right down to sharpen- 

 ing your lead pencil, it costs no more than the flat 

 rafter house. 



This being so, you better look into it pretty thor- 

 oughly, point by point, before putting your money 

 into anything else.
