A Light House Is The 

 Only Right House 



and you don't have to look twice to see how 

 light this house is. 



It is our Flat Iron Rafter, Curved Eave Con- 

 struction — strong, rigid, durable — the result of 

 years of experience in the development of high 

 grade greenhouses. 



You cannot afford to go ahead with ihe building 

 of your houses until you have investigated our 

 method of building them. Drop us a line.

 HoMse, 50 Feet Long 

 ByMt at Ed^eworth, Pa, 



An attractive little house, isn't il? 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.

You Can't Form Any Conception of What A U=Bar 

 is by Seeing It from the Outside 



IT is the inside that shows 

 up the bubble-like U-Bar 

 construction. At first 

 you may wonder how so 

 light a construction can be 

 so durable and so rigid. It 

 is because of the steel casing 

 of the roof-bar which gives 

 both strength to the frame 

 and a perfect protection to 

 the bar. No house is as free 

 from exposed parts of wood, 

 none so thoroughly takes 

 care of all condensation. To 

 cap the climax there is no 

 house can equal it for grow- 

 ing. Don't fake our say so 

 about it. ask any gardener 

 who has worked or is work- 

 ing in a U-Bar house. Glad 

 to send you our catalog.
