A MAN'S DISPOSITION 



is without doubt, seriously affected by the climatic conditions 

 which surround him. 



ARE YOU PLEASANTLY LOCATED? 



Are you shut in by the ice and snow of a rigorous winter, 

 with naught but a cheerless sky to gaze upon » What of your 

 lands now ? Covered with snow ! How about your stock ? 

 Have to be kept housed and fed '. 



The farmers in our territory are plowing, their stock graz- 

 ing on the hillsides, and in the famous Manatee section grow- 

 ers are shipping their products to Northern markets, receiv- 

 ing remarkable prices for the same, due to the season. 



Our lands are just as fertile as yours, produce just as much 

 and at a time when prices are the best. It's a duty you owe 

 yourself and family to look Into this. 



CLIMATE IS A MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR in 



connection with the protits, as well as pleasure, to be derived 

 from your location. 



Wouldn't you like to be pleasantly situated, surrounded by 

 climatic conditions which permit work to be carried on the 

 entire year and where the struggle for existence against the 

 elements of a frozen North is not known ! 



The climate in the six States traversed by our line is unsur- 

 passed anywhere, and the profits being derived by those who 

 only a tew years ago were battling with the rigors of winter 

 in a northern location is evidence of the value of our lands. 

 Do you expect to remain where you are and keep up the strug- 

 gle >. Why not come down into southern sunshine and be 

 V)leasantly located, while at the same time you are deriving 

 big protits from your crops ?

 plating a change of location, will help you. Let us put your

COLD-FBAME OB HOT-BED SASH. 



We are receiving some r,ice orders for these sash, 

 and we believe that, if more of the truck-gardeners 

 understood bow good they are, and the low price at

 orders. We have not seen as low prices quoted by 

 anybody else, not even the cut-rate mail-order houses, 

 as we are making on these. Some of our readers may 

 know of greenhouse-men in their neighborhood who 

 do not take this journal, and may do them a favor by 

 calling their attention to our prices. Cypress hot- 

 bed sash. 3^3 feet by 6 feet, for four rows of eight-inch 

 glass, with hard-wood round rod crosswise through 

 the bars midway between the ends to help space the
