''A Greenhouse Triumph and Innovation" 



Flower Store below and Greenhouse above 



Just think, right in the heart of New York City, a full iron 

 frame, curved eave greenhouse, 33 x 125 feet, built on top of a 

 Broadway building. This house was recently completed by us for 

 Mr. C. C. Trepel, the well-known and largest New York Florist. 



Our plans for this unique building were accepted by the nu- 

 merous building departments of the City of New York, and the 

 finished job passed by them. 



Easy access is gained by an electric elevator from store to 

 greenhouse. 



We know how. Let us prove it to you. Buy your next house

Nothing adds more to the beauty and attractive- 

 ness of your grounds than a good, substantial 

 fence. Permanency is of prime importance, too. 

 Select the fence that defies rust and withstands 

 all weather conditions. 



fences are made of big, strong wires with clamped joints 

 which prevent slipping, sagging or twisting. This exclusive 

 feature assures unusual rigidity under the most severe strain. 

 Excelsior Fences are dipped in molten zinc which makes 

 them practically indestructible. Write for Catalog J from 

 which to select the style best suited to your needs. Ask 

 your hardware dealer for Excelsior " Rust Proof ' 

 Trellises, Flower and Tree Guards.
