HORTICULTURE 



June 14, 1919 



Taking as a basis the stress and strain of wind and 

 snow, we built our main truss to stand strains and 

 stresses largely in excess of its needs. To make sure 

 it would stand that excess, the roof was loaded down 

 with a dead weight of iron bars. Not till then did we 

 decide to use that truss in our Standard Iron Frame 

 Construction. 



So scientifically framed is that part of our house in- 

 cluded between the two columns, that it would stand 

 staunch and linn entirely independent of the side 

 posts. The part from the side posts to the column 

 in really a lean-to. This being so, the Heedlessness of 

 a post heavier than we use is apparent. 





Counsel Counts 





m 



Every day, at a certain time, in the 

 offices of the big business concerns of 

 the country, the heads of the company 

 gather in a room and counsel together. 



When they decide to do things, it is 

 not the decision of one man ; but the 

 multiplied decisions of all the exper- 

 ience and ability of the men present. 



At such gatherings, possible mistakes 

 are seen and prevented. 

 They can tell pretty close what will 

 happen, before it has happened. 

 Counsel Counts. 



It is from such concerns that you are 

 today getting the finest of service and 

 the best value for your money, wheth- 



er it is a suit of clothes, an automobile 

 or a greenhouse. 

 Counsel Counts. 



That is exactly why all our salesmen 

 and department heads get together 

 at regular stated times and thresh 

 things out. 



It may be the question of some con- 

 struction problem, in the house you 

 intend buying from us. 



Or it may be your heating that has not 

 proven quite satisfactory. 



Whatever it is, it is threshed out right 

 then and there, to the last point. 

 When you get the decision, it will not 

 be one man's idea ; it Avill be the ma- 

 jority conclusion of all those men. 

 Counsel Counts.
