 was born, and had lived for many years 

 in this city.

Light is Life to growing plants 



But under Sunlight 

 Double Glass Sash they 

 are never darkened by 

 mats or shutters. 



Consider this 



The old style single layer sash have 

 but a single layer of glass which ad- 

 mits the sun, but cannot exclude the 

 cold or retain the heat unless covered 

 with mats and shutters. These extra 

 covers cost twice as much as an extra 

 layer of glass and they must be put on 

 and off daily. It takes two men or a 

 man and wife to lift the soggy mats 

 and heavy shutters. 



This is pure waste of labor and ex- 

 pense as well as light. 



Now consider *that 



the Sunlight Double Glass Sash 

 have ttuo layers of glass enclosing an 

 air space fi inches thick, through 

 which the sun's rays pass, but not the 

 cold from without oi the stored 

 warmth from within. 



Put the Sash on your hot-bed or 

 cold frame, and it is complete. All 

 that remains to do is to prop up the 

 sash on bright or warm days. A 

 child can do this.

of 



A small inexpensive greenhouse made

s^sh for you are losing money every day you are without them.
