Make the Garden More Beautiful In Two Ways 
They have a special style of construction which, w'hile very strong, does away with heavy shadow 
casting supports. This makes every King especially sunny and productive and enables you to give 
your garden an earlier start. 
Then this special construction, noted for its graceful sweeping lines, can be adapted to suit any 
style of architecture or landscape plan. The King is in itself the beauty spot of the garden. 
Write for Bulletin No. 47 — Send us a picture of your home. Tell us your own 
ideas, and let our experts prepare a sketch and plan showing just how a King 
can add dignity and grace to your garden — No obligation on your part of course.
