N.iils rusted off — roof bars rotted out. 



This Will Never Happen to 

 Your House If We Build It 



It's just the natural result of wooden eaves, 

 nailed-on roof bars and wooden posts. There's 

 no wooden frame house that will stand a fraction 

 the time that the Hitchings Iron Rafter house 

 will — not to mention the difference in the 

 amount of light that actually reaches the plants. 

 The light, flat ir m rafters and small roof bars 

 make our house practically as light as day. 

 Don't be fooled into buying an out of date house 

 for a little less money — it will cost more in the 

 end.

There is a natural architectural beauty 

 about the curve of its roof lines, while 

 the Sectional Iron Frame Construction 

 gives it a lightnesi and endurance that 

 it is out of the question to find in any 

 other curvilinear house, made any other 

 way. Give us the chance to tell you 

 just why.

THE GREENHOUSE SENSIBLE 



Just plain every day common sense applied to glass, wood and steel in such a way as to 



make the best greenhouse built. 



But even as common sense is the most uncommon kind, so is a thoroughly sensible, every 



way practical greenhouse construction hard to find. Each one Is strong in some few 



points, but what you want is one strong In all the strong points. Then the U-Bar Is the 



house you are looking for. 



Just why, we haven't room to tell here, but our catalog has. So send for the catalog.
