The Metropolitan Patented 

 Eave prevents ice and snow 

 from sticking on the green- 

 house. 



The Eave Is one 

 continuous piece 

 of cast iron — 

 90% of which is 

 in constant con- 

 tact with the 

 heat Inside. 

 This heat pen- 

 e t r a t e s right 

 through the 

 eave, and as 

 soon as the 

 snow touches it, 

 it melts imme- 

 diately. None 

 other than the 

 Metro p o 1 1 1 a n 

 Eave can honestly make this claim. 



A heavy snow has broken through 

 many a greenhouse and ruined an ex- 

 pensive crop. The Metropolitan Pat- 

 ented Eave will avoid this. 



Before ordering a greenhouse give us 

 the opportunity to prove our claims. 



This Is But One Of The Many Im- 

 provements We Have IMade In 

 Greenhoase Gonstraction. 



Put your Greenhouse problems up to 

 us. Let us submit plans and prices. 

 We so an.ywhore in U. S. A.
