The Florists^ Review 



Decbmbbb 4, 1919. 



The side truss member runniriK be< 



tween column and post is double 



bolted to the gusset plate. 



This truss-joining 'plate holds 'the 

 four truss members rigidly in ex- 

 act place. The two bolts prevent 

 any twisting or turning. 



The gable purlins are fastened to the gable 



rafters by double angle knees with 



double purlin bolts. 



"Vibration." "Give-and-take." "Conie-and-go." 

 call it what you will, it's the very thing you don't 

 want in your greenhouse. 



With it your glass loosens. 



Without it, it doesn't. 



We buildlthe house that doesn't. 



The 2-bolt 'method is one reason^why. 



You Ican't make a framing joint' of two or more 

 members, and make that joint rigid by using only 

 one bolt on each side of the Joint. 

 No matt/!- how tight you strew it up. there will be 



some "give." 



"Gives" never grow less. 



We are dead against "Gives." 



Every important framing joint or connection on 

 our Iron Frame house has two bolts on at least one 

 side— sometimes on both. 



.Making twice thenumberof boltholes costs money 



Using twice the number of bolts costs more money. 



Which would you rather do.'pay lessinioney for less 

 bolt holes and bolts and have loo.sened glass, or 

 pay more and have your glass stay tight? 



Our stay-tight way may cost a bit more to start 

 with, but a lot less to end with. 



The cost of a house is not just what it costs to buy. 

 but what it costs to buy. in addition to what it 

 costs to keep it bought. 



Ever think of it just thatlway? 



When you are ready to talk building, say when 

 and where and we'll be there.
