THE CANADIAN HORTICULTURIST 



June, 1912 



One of the modern barn 

 plans prepared by our 

 Builders' Service Dept. 



Above is shown one of the 

 modem bam plans prepared 

 by our "Builders' Service 

 Dept." Others are shown in 

 a portfolio that will be mailed 

 to you on receipt of the coupon 

 attached to this ad, properly 

 filled out. 



If you will tell us the size of 

 the bam you expect to build, 

 and the number of cattle you 

 want to house, our Board of 

 Advisers, consisting of ten of 

 the best bam builders and 

 contractors in the Dominion, 

 will co-operate with you to 

 plan a building exactly suited 

 to your own particular re- 

 quirements. 



This service is offered to you 

 FREE of charge. It's our 



way of showing our appre- 

 ciation of the generous and 

 hearty support the farmers and 

 builders of Canada have given 

 our products, particularly 

 Preston Safe-Lock Shingles. 



Preston Safe -Lock Shingles 

 merit the tremendous demand 

 they enjoy to-day, for they 

 afford guaranteed protection 

 against lightning. They keep 

 out the rain, snow, moisture, 

 wind and fire, too. They cost 

 nothing for up-keep, as they 

 never need painting or repairs. 



Our latest edition of "Truth About 

 Roofing" booklet tells allaboutthem. 

 We'll send a copy along with the Port- 

 folio of Barn Plans. You want the 

 Portfolio, that's certain, if you intend 

 to build. So send the coupon by first 

 mail. Address it to
