You Oueht to See 



Our Enlarged Factory at Des Plaines 



THIS is one of those interest points in the vicinity of Chi- 

 cago that every florist and grower should be sure to visit 

 when in Chicago. We are only seventeen miles from 

 Chicago on the C. & N. W. railroad, with nearly fifty trains a 

 day, so you can come and go whenever you please. Moreover, 

 our factory is located right in the center of an interesting colony 

 of up-to-date greenhouse establishments. Surrounding us are 

 the ranges of the Des Plaines Floral Co., Des Plaines Violet Co., 

 Sol (jarland. Frank Garland, and A\^arren Carland, while many 

 others are within walking distance. 



We have heard some growers say a successful truss house 

 could not be built, but a visit to our factory and to these ranges 

 wall positively prove to all doubters and sceptics that, no matter 

 what faults may be found w^ith other truss constructions, the 

 Garland Truss is not only a success, but by all odds the lightest, 

 strongest, most satisfactory construction, ever designed for 

 greenhouses. The Garland Trussed Iron Frame Houses arc 

 the only houses ever built on wheels. The movable range 

 erected last year for Albert Stahelin, Redford, Mich., was, and 

 still is, the wonder of greenhouse construction. Strength, rigid- 

 ity and accuracy, combined with light weight, were absolutely 

 necessarv and the Garland Truss was the onlv construction that 

 filled the bill. 



Make your arrangements today, now, to come to Des Plaines, 

 to visit the Garland factory, and to satisfy yourself that the 

 Garland Trussed Iron Frame is the construction you want and 

 need in your next houses. Trains leave Northwestern station. 

 Canal and Madison streets, as follows : 



If you should find it impossible to call on us, write for par- 

 ticulars and estimates on any building you may have in mind. 

 We're here to help you in any way we can.
