KING GREENHOUSES Are Productive 



<^2zg0S<%& 



liif 



Strong and economical to oper- 

 ate. The result of years of 

 experience in building for pro- 

 fessional growers. 



For private use, we have de- 

 veloped a special type of con- 

 struction in which we are able 

 to retain all these necessary 

 features, yet offer in addition, 

 rare architectural beauty. 



KING CHANNEL BAR GREENHOUSES 



can be built in an infinite variety of sizes and designs to harmonize with any style 

 of architectural or landscape arrangement. So no matter how simple or elaborate a 

 Greenhouse you want, there's a King to meet your requirements. 



Write today for Bulletin No. 43, and let us send you a brief description 

 of the Channel Bar and some pictures of King Houses of this type.
