The Greenwood Floral Co. 

 Are Making Big Strides 



Until a few years ago the "long horned" 

 cattle of Texas had been the pride of the 

 plains. Their owners, however, realizing 

 that as an investment they did not yield as 

 much as the "short horn" brand, which were 

 better beef producers, gradually disposed of 

 them, until now they are practically extinct. 



Just 'as the "short horn" cattle have taken 

 the place of the "long horn." so has the 

 modern. Iron Frame Construction green- 

 house taken the place of the cheaply built 

 "short lived" house. 



IniyiTwesold the Greenwood Floral Com- 

 pany, of Fort Worth. Texas, three Com- 

 mercial Iron Frame houses, each 11 feet ;• 

 inches by 150 feet. 



They are just a forerunner, too. of wliat is 

 yet to come. 



Mr. Davis, General Manager, was so satisfied 

 with these houses, and so proud of them, 

 that he just dressed them up a bit at the 

 entrances with i)ergolas and evergreen 

 planting, which, of course, lends a touch 

 ofjdistinctiveness. 



Mr. Bailey and Mr. Davis, owners of the 

 Greenwood Floral Company, sure are rust- 

 lers, and last July they ordered another 

 house 79 feet 5 inches by 300 feet. 



Each gable of this house is to have 2 sets of 

 triple doors, with a line of ventilating sash 

 over the doors. 



They intend to make a specialty of roses, 

 and the new house is to be entirely devoted 

 to them. Mr. Davis says that conditions 

 are decidedly favorable— plenty of ground, 

 good soil, sufficient water for irrigation 

 purposes, and Quantities of fertilizer, and 

 that if this house proves a success, another 

 will follow. 



With the completion of this last house, the 

 Greenwood Floral Co. will have one of the 

 most up-to-date ranges in Texas. 



You can ha\e the most up-to-date range in 

 your section but don't hesitate; don't let 

 the other fellow get ahead of you. 



We are at your ser\ ice.
