No Greenhouse Man can afford to take the risk 

 of leaving his place unprotected against the postibilities 

 of overheating or frost, when absolute safety against 

 either of these contingencies can be assured by install- 

 ing the faithful, sleepless, watchman, whose 

 portrait appears herewiih. All you have to do is to 

 set the hands — one at minimum and the other at maxi- 

 mum temperature limit — and the Thermostat will give 

 instant warning if temperature goes above or below.
