■ HORl ICULTUEE 



December 16, 1916 



The »t«el post Is 

 entirely above the 

 ground, protected 

 from destrnctlve 

 soil rusting. The 

 base is cast iron 

 which wili last 

 almost forever 

 without rusting 



OQt. 



Some Construction Tilings As TKey Are 



"M'EXT to seeing a thing itself, is the seeing ot the 

 ■^-^ photograph itself. Here, then, is the next best 

 of our side construction, plainly showing several 

 vital construction points. 



Number 1 calls attention to the good, sturdy fit- 

 ting that firmly secures the eave plate to the post 

 and ratter. It also points to the point that there 

 is no heavy splice plate at this point. The post 

 and rafter are in one solid piece, making a neat job, 

 a light job and a strong job. 



Number 2 points to the ventilating shaft bearer 

 we use instead of punching an inch hole in the post 

 to carry it. That hole may or may not seriously 

 weaken the post, but we are certain sure that these 

 two quarter inch bolt holes don't. 



Number 3 calls your attention to the way the 

 cast iron sill is secured to the post — one such fit- 

 ting on each side. 



Now look at the details in the circles for still 

 further points of view. Every single member of 

 any importance in our entire construction, we would 

 like to both tell and show you about. 



Nothing would please us better than to sit down 

 with you and compare point by point, our construc- 

 tion, with any or all the constructions you wish. 



We have a notion it would be decidedly interest- 

 ing to both of us. It might even result in saving 

 some money for you and making a little for us. 



You know we go anywhere for business. Or to 

 talk business.
