THE WOOD that LASTS 

 shall be FIRST 



with Good Nurserymen who also are 

 Good BUSINESSMEN. 



CYFBESS is the one Greenhouse wood that is too busy on the job of LASTING to do any rotting an 

 tinking." It is hardly worth while to say that it is "THE eternal standard of Greenhouse Wood" — s 



and 

 "stinking." It is hardly worth while to say that it is "THE eternal standard of Greenhouse Wood" — as 

 everybody knows it, in the profession and outside the profession of greenhousemen. Even contractors 

 who use a cheaper "substitute" (because it is "cheaper") — they also know there is no wood grown that 

 will really "substitute" for CYPEESS in greenhouse construction. The word "substitute" is a synonym 

 for "inferior." The character of CYPEESS for ENDURANCE is as old as the human race; it is no new 

 discovery. CYPEESS was the "gopher wood" of the Bible; the mummies of ancient Egypt were encased 

 in Cypress caskets more than 5,000 years ago, and the caskets are sound today. The ancients called it the 

 "wood eternal." It is just that. 



But there 's no use to talk about it, everybody KNOWS what CYPEESS is for greenhouse work. The 

 proposition resolves itself to this; AND NOTHING ELSE: — 



IF YOU WANT A "CHEAP" GREENHOUSE, ONE THAT WILL SMELL OF ROTTING WOOD 

 AND WHOSE REPAIRS WILL EAT HOLES IN YOUR BANK ACCOUNT, HAVE IT BUILT OF A "SUB- 

 STITUTE" FOR CYPRESS; IF YOX^ WANT A GOOD GREENHOUSE, ONE THAT WILL LAST AND 

 SAVE YOU EXASPERATING REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT BILLS, HAVE NOTHING OF WOOD IN 

 IT BUT CLEAR, HEART CYPRESS. ("Pecky" for the benches, "clear" for the balance of the job, from 

 sills to sash.) 



Make yourself free with our Cypress Pocket Library, it was printed for you. Vol. 1 treats of Cypress 

 in general, including the report of the U. S. Govt, on the uses to which the wood is adapted. Vol. 3 is 

 entitled "The Only Greenhouse Wood;" and Vol. 2 (almost ready) is very interesting to the profession, for 

 it treats of "Pecky" Cypress, the kind so much used for benches and standards. They are free for the 

 asking; get busy and ask.
