Strawberries for Your Guests 
and You, from Your Own Garden 
It is much easier to have a real appetizing breakfast, luncheon, 
dinner, or a supper, in strawberry time, than in August or at 
Christmas. Guests appreciate Strawberries, just as the little boy 
did who said, “I go to the garden to eat strawberries before 1 reak- 
t.ist, and l efore I go to bed, and lots of times between.” If your 
patch is as big as 50 by 100 feet you will have berries for every 
meal all season, and plenty to eat from the patch, to preserve, or 
flavor sherbets, etc. It will give all of you—babies, parents, and 
old folks, if there are any—a chance to exercise and relax outdoors. 
Strawberries lead to health, in the eating and in the growing. 
Money to Be Made 
from Berries 
Neighbors will buy what you 
can’t use. By starting a bigger 
patch in your garden, and buy¬ 
ing crates, it is easy to clear ten, 
twenty or even fifty dollars. If 
there is plenty of space—a sum¬ 
mer home or a farm— any amount 
of money can be readily made.

gives to a country home 
or farm house the essential 
convenience of city water. 
You can have running hot and 
cold water in your house, using 
the Andrews air-tight tank in 
the basement or the ground out- 
side. This is filled by the use of 
a pump, worked either by a gas¬ 
oline engine, windmill or hand 
power, the water being delivered 
under pressure. It has all the 
advantages of an overhead tank, 
but it never freezes, never runs 
over, and the pressure is usually 
sufficient to throw water over 
the house, thus making ample 
fire protection.

[here Are Specific Reasons Why the U-Bar Green¬ 
house Is the Best for the Expert and Amateur 
There are many strong points about 
the construction of the U-Bar Green¬ 
houses that make it by far the best, 
not only as a plant producing house, but 
as best adapted for the home grounds. 
The absolute simplicity of the con¬ 
struction is one of its strongest points. 
Every roof bar is encased in a steel 
U-Bar, giving the house a complete 
framework of steel, having great 
strength and an unequalled endurance. 
Because of this complete steel frame the 
house can be made very much lighter 
than other constructions. Lightness is 
what you need in a greenhouse. This 
is especially important in the short, dull 
days of winter. Fact is, U-Bar Green¬ 
houses are as near actual outdoor con¬ 
ditions as possible, and still be indoors. 
One of the special features of the 
U-Bar Greenhouse is its Curved Eave, 
but all curved eave houses are not 
made with the U-Bar. We are the 
sole owners and builders of the U-Bar 
Curved Eave construction. 
Our catalog describes and illustrates 
pertinent U-Bar construction points 
in an interesting, readable way. Send
