 TAN PATENT- 

 ED is. you would 

 use no other. It 

 is made of cast 

 iron and will not 

 rust. That part 

 of your green- 

 house wb'ch in 

 other construc- 

 tions is the wealc- 

 est becomes the 

 strongest. Not 

 this alone, it is 

 Ice-cIearing and 

 carries all the 

 water of con- 

 densation from the inside, and it is so 

 constructed that almost the entire end 

 .>f the bar is exposed to the air, there- 

 by preventing decay. Only one screw, 

 about two inches from the end. is all 

 that is necessary to secure the bars. 

 For side stationary glass, wood headers 

 are absolutely unnecessary, thereby 

 causing no shade. Zinc glass stops are 

 not necessary — the eiiye is made with 

 a lug to prevent the glass from slip- 

 ping. Let your next house be built 

 with a Metropolitan Patented Iron Wall 

 Construction. You will never regret It. 

 Our price and service are right.

 Kroeschell which was in- g 

 stalled in 1009. and they are J 

 rocjuired to fire same only f

 letter speaks tor itself: s 



"We do not have the ^ 

 least trouble to maintain 

 about <Ili decrees in tlie cold-

 Holler is tlie best I ever lia<l. 

 before I lieard about your

 witli tlie Kroeschell for a 

 liundred cast iron boilers
