 or Soil Trays ROTTING we want to call your attention 



to the use of 



Louisiana Red Cypres^ 



CLEAR CYPRESS FOR FRAMING AND CONSTRUCTION— 

 PECKY CYPRESS FOR BENCHES AND SOIL TRAYS. / 



PKCKT CTPRK88. 



THE JOHN C. MONINGER CO., Manufacturers of Louisiana Red Cypress Greenhouse Construction Lumber, 

 Blackhawk St., Cor. Hawthorne Ave., Chicago, 111., under date of November 14, 1{)06, says: "We first began 

 using Cypress exclusively for greenhouse construction in 1885, using it previous to that time in conjunction with 

 pine. The greenhouses built with clear Cypress, free of sap, twenty-one years ago are being used today by their 

 owners, and the wood is found perfectly preserved and free from any decay or rot." 



BASSETT & WASHBURN, Growers and Wholesale Dealers in Cut Flowers, Florists' Supplies, etc., 76-78 Wabash 

 Ave., Chicago, 111., under date of November 20, 1906, say: "Replying to your favor requesting our experience 

 with Pecky Cypress, we will say, we have been using this grade of Cypress in our greenhouses and plant benches 

 for the last ten or twelve years and so far have not found any of this wood that has at all rotted out. We 

 formerly used Hemlock and Pine but found that 2-inch stock only lasted about four years while so far we have 

 had no Pecky Cypress rot out in ten or twelve years. We use clear Cypress for all our roof work, ventilators, 

 etc., and it is very satisfactory. We think it is the only kind of lumber for the purpose."
