"You Can't Drive a Nail With a Sponge 

 No Matter How Hard You Soak It" 



A SPONGE was not iniiile for tbnt purpose. No more 

 can you get eoonoinlcal results from any cast-Iron 

 boUer for jrreenhouse heating, if the boiler was 

 not designed and made for tlie purpose of green- 

 Jiouse heating. 



It was over 40 years ago when we first started thlnli- 

 ing about malting a greenhouse boiler. 



For years we thought and worked over It before even 

 a casting was made. 



Three dlfTcrent boilers were made by us In the years 

 that followed. 



Each In turn was discarded for one that better met 

 the continually increasing demands for greenhouse economy. 



This last model, with Its two side — and one big center — 

 flne-way, acts much quicker, burns the coal down to a 

 frec-er ash and pushes the water through the colls with 

 grejitcr force than any previous one. 



It's by far the most economical of tbem all. 



When you buy a boiler — buy a greenhouse boiler and 

 not a residence boiler, struggling and straining to economi- 

 cally do greenhouse work. 



You can't expe<t a sponge to do a hammer's work.
