U-Bar Greenhouses ' Wr^"' f 
In the Blue Ridge Mountains Qr®ginife 
BSilMSi 
I F a greenhouse is an indispensable part of coun¬ 
try places in the valley parts, even more neces¬ 
sary is it in the hill and mountains where seasons 
are shorter and outdoor growing conditions more 
uncertain. 
The always early vegetable and flower gardens 
are one of the greenhouse assurances. 
To have vegetables, fruits and flowers from the 
greenhouse no matter whether in season or out, is 
another assurance. 
This strikingly interesting group of houses is 
located at Oak Ridge, in the mountains of Virginia. 
The large view was taken looking from the residence. 
It is an unique example of the circular palm house 
treatment with passage houses connecting it to the 
three wings. 
This and some three dozen or more other houses, from 
the small one-compartment house up to the largest 
ranges, are shown in our catalog. 
The catalog tells you plainly and pointedly just how 
U-Bar houses differ from other houses built other ways. 
And why the U-Bar way is better for the plants and 
easier on your pocketbook for upkeep. 
Send for the catalog. Or send for us. Or both.
