|f The Market. 



'. Trade keeps up fairly well, with 

 pilenty of stock of all kinds in the mar- 

 ket. Roses and carnations are extra 

 fine, and most of the growers are look- 

 ing for a big Christmas cut. Sweet 

 peas, violets, narcissi^aird valley have 

 been moving nicely and there has been 

 no surplus to speak of at any time. 

 Potted plants are moving well, with 

 cyclamens, Lorraine begonias and aza- 

 leas in the lead.

principle — Two layers of glass with a Vs-inch layer of dry still air 



Get ready for your winter garden 



Glass must be used whether you garden for profit or simply to enjoy 

 having vegetables and flowers when they are a luxury and sell high. 



And you must have Sunlight Double Glass Sash if you want to get the 

 best results at the least cost of money and labor. They have become the 

 standard througliout the best and largest gardens in the country for very 

 good reasons: — 



Three reasons why 



1 The air space enclosed between the two 

 layers of glass makes a transparent cover 

 that affords better proteciion than the mats 

 and shutters on the old single sash. And, 

 it never has to be put on and oH. It is 

 always there though invisible. 



2 This air spade saves more than one half the 

 labor. 



3 It makes far earlier and stronger plants. 



Our inexpensive greenhouse 



A handy man can set it up in a few hours. 



It is framed of cypress and covered top and 

 sides with Sunlight Double Glass Sash which 

 can be removed at will for use elsewhere or 

 for repairs.
