Ot'T at Lee's Summit, thirty 

 miles or so from Kansas 

 City, Mr. R. A. Long has a 

 big estate. In Kansas City itself, is 

 his palatial "Town House," where 

 a feature of the grounds is a vine 

 covered pergola, at one end of 

 which is a beautiful Palm House; 

 and at the other a Curvilinear 

 Plant House, both, of our con- 

 struction. 



At Lee's Summit, we recently 

 built two straight-away growing 

 houses, each 30x200 feet, having 

 four compartments. 



These are the real producing 

 houses. Nothing was spared to 

 give them every growing advan- 

 tage. They will produce plants in 

 nuality and quantity at a produc- 

 tion cost that will make any com- 

 mercial concern sit up and take 

 notice. 



Not only is the big-house-on-the- 

 hlll, called Longview, abundantly 



and continuously supplied, but 

 the town house as well. During 

 the Town Season, quantities are ^

shipped there. 



The point we want to put up to 

 you is; w-hich would you rather 

 have — an ornamental range with 

 a limited growing space; or put 

 the same money into a roomy lay- 

 out like Mr. Long's, from which 

 you can grow i)ractically unlim- 

 ited things to the great satisfac- 

 tion and iileasure of your em- 

 ployer and family? 



Of course, if your available loca- 

 tion is su:'h as to demand an or- 

 uamontal treatment, that settles 

 il. But it it isn't, both of us had 

 better get together and talk the 

 question over and see what can 

 be worked out to the advantage 

 of you and your employer. 



Say when and where and we will 

 be there.
