HOETICULTUEE

THE saying: "A Lean Horse for a Long Race," is 

 true as It is old. 

 The U-Bar is the leanest of all the greenhouse con- 

 structions. 



Leanest, because it's made of the strongest material; 

 with the least material needed to make it strong. 

 The U-Bar roof bar and rafter, are one. 

 Every roof bar is a steel rafter. 

 Every rafter is a steel and cypress roof bar. 

 Not-with-standing this rafter and roof bar combination 

 — the U-Bars are no larger than the usual cypress bars 

 used in other constructions. 



Like the lean horse, the U-Bar frame is all muscle. 

 Not only is such a house, when built such a way. de- 

 cidedly more graceful and architecturally attractive; 

 but it's unequaled for productiveness. 

 The highest possible endorsement of the U-Bar con- 

 struction, is that other concerns are trying In every 

 way to make their houses look like the U-Bar houses. 



So don't think that if a houi^e has a curved eave, it's 

 a U-Bar house. 



If it's not built with the L'-Bars, it's not a U-Bar curved 

 eave house. 



Send for catalog. Or send for us. Or both.
