THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE OF AMERICA. 





URaR 



IF you want to prove the U-Bar whys up point 

 by point, come and see our exhibition at the 

 NATIONAL FLOWER SHOW. 



W'e will have a full grown house right there in 

 a garden plot. You can make comparisons with 

 other constructions right then and there. There 

 will be some one of us there always on hand to give you 

 the glad welcome. 



If you can't come, then read what follows, 

 carefully. 



Look at the wheels of a bicycle — see what slender, little, wire-like spokes 

 they have — yet what strong, sturdy wheels they are. Surely no one would 

 think of going back to tlie clums)-, old wooden spoked wdieel. 



By the same token did you ever stop to think how like the bicycle wheel, 

 U-Bar greenhouses are? 



No heavy wooden roof bars or large iron framing members — but in their 

 place a complete, all steel frame of L'-Bar as light and strong in proportion 

 as are the bicycle spokes. 



The cypress core bar is steeped in a chemical preservative before it is 

 placed in the U-Bar. 



The galvanized steel U-Bar completely protects the core bar from the 

 inside moisture of the house. 



The drip does not drip. It follows down the bottom of the U-Bar, to 

 the purlin lead-ofifs, or to the cast iron sill. No drip grooves to get 

 stopped up. 



Then there's the curved eave — everybody knows the U-Bar curved eave 

 was the original curved eave. It is admitted to be the most practical and 

 attractive of all the curved eaves. 



No reinforcements of the curved parts of the U-Bar are needed — no 

 heavy iron members to break the view from the inside looking out; or 

 show a heavy line from the outside, looking in. 



There's only one U-Bar curved eave, and that's the cave made with 

 the U-Bar. 



Others tnay look like it, but that's the only way they are like it. We 

 tell you these things as a natter of protection to yourself. If you want 

 t';c finest greenhouse sold today, for private estates, public institutions, or 

 florist show houses — you want the U-Par. Sec to it tliat you get it.
