Metropolitan Greenhouse Service 



the utmost in efficiency 

 and— results 



Metropolitan Exhibit 

 at last year's show 



No matter what the initial cost of a greenhouse 

 amounts to, it is in every instance a good investment, 

 provided the revenue results are proportionate, and the 

 cost of maintenance remains at a minimum. But no 

 matter how little the initial cost, it is far too much for 

 unsatisfactory returns, with constantly increasing upkeep and repair expenses. 

 Therefore, as the quality of materials used in the construction of all greenhouses is, 

 after all, a matter of contract specifications, this organization bases its claims upon 

 the high character of its labor and its constant endeavor to render a service which is 

 at all times the utmost in efficicLcy, economy and results. 



The reliability of this organization has been conclusively proven by the fact that it 

 has not merely sustained, but heightened its prestige for so long a period.
