THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE OF AMERICA. 



YOU look out the window some day and see two 

 men go past. One is of chunky, solid build, 

 and he hustles perspiringly along with a great 

 swinging of his arms. He impresses you as a man who 

 is going to get there "if it takes a leg." 



Man number two is of slighter build. He walks with 

 a light springiness. He does not seem in a great 

 hurry. There is no lost motion in his movements, how- 

 ever. No swinging of arms, but he is getting there just 

 as fast as the other fellow. In fact, he is actually 

 walking faster. 



If you and I could follow those two men throughout 

 the day, man number two (the light, wiry man) would 

 always be easily overtaking the thick set one. Always 

 he would pass him. 



It's exactly the same with greenhouse construction. 

 The light. U-Bar constructed house beats all other con- 

 structions when it comes to actual growing results. Its 

 slender strong frame of L'-Bars has all the strength of 

 the heavy framed houses, but none of the lost motion 

 in actual results getting. 



Some houses with curved cave attachments look like 

 the U-Bar; but '"looks are deceiving." If it's not built 

 witli U-Bars, it's not the U-Bar curved eave house. 



To get a point by point pointing out, of the excelling 

 points of the U-Bar house, send for the new catalog. 

 Or send for us. Or botli.

Some Summertime Things It's Time To Do 



Now tliut you jtiruwfcs are jtifttiiig your bvisiuut-s iiiftlicMis 

 down to a i>oiiit wIktc you rlosety cut the corners on all 

 unucci'ssai-y cxnensL*. yon are appreciating tlie savint; 

 tliere Is in early overhauling your entire lienting plant. 



This waitintr tiutil you want lieat before doing anything 

 doesn't agree with tlu- ear'-f'il way you do other things. 



Some inconveniences — like painting — can't be helped. But 

 this getting your Iieating in shape can be. 



If your iKiiler needs new grates— g'-t tbeni now and [Mil 

 them in. 



II' some of your pipf (mnks have slipped and nfffc-ted thi- elr- 

 i-iil:iti<in — giv»- them attention now. 



If the elrculati<m in yonr pipes was sluggish last season, 

 send for one of our expert heating men to go carefully over it 

 and ferret out the Innible. 



If you uet'd a new boiler, don't wait until Jack Frost forcibly 

 calls your attention lo the necessity. Order it now and make 

 sure of its early delivery and auipli- time for its erection and 

 connecting up. 



Very seldom you are able to accomplish things sooner than 

 you expected. The safe way is to allow more time than you 

 think you need. 



Tlie fact that we have been heating greenhouses for going 

 on (j4 years, is pretty strong evidence of our ability to beat 

 them the economical way they slioutd bo heated. 



We shall be looking to hear from you.
