 About Your Greenhouse 



Don't take "say-sos" — find out what 

 kind of work the greenhouse builder 

 has done before you give him the job. 

 This is what you always do if you have 

 other important building work. We 

 stand ready to show you, and we have 

 an illustrated circular to help us. Send 

 for it.

 BuiMt at Edgeworth, Pa. 



An attractive little house, isn't it? It has 

 one compartment for propagating bedding 

 plants, growing chrysanthemums and for 

 general purposes — the other for potted 

 plants and such decorative kinds in tubs as 

 are brought in from the grounds in the fall. 

 To accommodate the taller ones, the center 

 is left open and has only tables around the 

 sides. But there are any number of ways 

 to arrange it; the main point to start with, 

 is to choose the right firm and then you 

 are sure of getting the right construction. 

 As a starter, just try us.

A GREENHOUSE FACT OF IMPORTANCE 



Greenhouse designing and building is a business by itself. It is no more possible for a general builder to give you a prac- 

 tical, satisfactory greenhouse than it is for the local blacksmith to make an automobile. 



If you want a greenhouse designed harmoniously, artistically — a house that will yield the greatest amount of plants and 

 flowers with least trouble — one that is built to withstand the destructive conditions that must exist in every greenhouse, then go 

 to a professional greenhouse builder. We are that kind of builders. 



We build a distinctly different kind of house from any one else — no one else can build it, the patent is ours. 



It has an all steel, all galvanized frame of unusual strength, but extreme lightness. It is in fact the lightest greenhouse built, 

 and the lighter your house, the more and better your flowers will be. 



Our catalog tells interestingly and illustrates plainly just why U-Bar greenhouses are the best houses for you. Let us send 

 you this catalog.
