Wooden Gutter Houses 



No. 2. — Note the destruction wrought here, where wooden gutters were in use; many of the houses were completely 



demolished and must be entirely rebuilt. 



While the two photographs teach a big lesson to prospective buyers of greenhouse material, an even 

 greater lessoh than is shown at first glance is provided. It brings out this pertinent question: 



If the iron gutter houses stand under the same strains that demolish the 

 wooden gutter houses, how much stronger would the former houses be if iron 

 frame construction had been used throughout? 



It is practically certain 'that with Garland iron frame construction all the sashbars would have held also 

 and the only damage would then have been the broken glass. Peter Reinberg estimates his loss at $20,000 and 

 all his houses were left standing. George Reinberg's loss is much heavier. Now — Can You afford to use any- 

 thing except Garland Cast Iron, Semi-malleable Gutters and Iron Frame or Truss Con- 

 struction when You build? Write us today for full particulars regarding Garland Construction.
