Joseph Manda, of West Orange, N. J., Uses 

 and is a Firm Believer in Concrete Benches 



Eleven years ago, Joseph Manda, of 

 West Orange, N. J., the well-known 

 grower of Orchids, came to the con- 

 clusion that wooden benches were a 

 continued item of expense, they be- 

 came unsightly and caused much loss 

 of time. He thoroughly investigated 

 the merits of concrete benches, re- 

 sulting in the employment of our serv- 

 ices to the end of equipping his houses 

 with that type of bench that never 

 needs be rebuilt, never needs repair- 

 ing, the first cost being the last cost. 

 His present range of 13 houses with 

 35,000 square feet of glass present a 

 wonderful appearance because of the 

 concrete benches. 



Not one penny has ever been spent for 

 repairs, no time lost for repairs nor 

 rebuilding. Because of this Mr. Manda 

 is strong in his praise for concrete 

 benches, so, too, because they make 

 possible a yniform heat and proper 

 drainage, and because they do not 

 harbor insects. There are other facts 

 that you, as a grower, should know 

 about such benches, and we will gladly 

 pass along complete details and other 

 information that will overcome your 

 own bench problems and expense. 

 They are the least expensive type of 

 bench to build — the first cost is the 

 last cost. 



Your request for information 

 places you under no obligation.
