. Florists' review [microform]. Floriculture. n|ONG ago we stopped buying bur iron here. IH there and everywhere in the open market, ^ i ^ i^ l ?^ where we could get it cheapest. You are up against it when you start kicking about our iron. We found out that the only way to get the high grade of iron, best for greenhouse strength and endurance, was to buy iron containing certain mixtures which the best engineers in the country declare to be best for structural purposes where required to stand the stress and strain that is in a greenhouse. We won't go into the scientific side of the question here; our chemist will gladly do that for you any time you are visiting our factory. Greenhouse iron must not be too soft; neither can it be too brittle. It must bend to the greatest extent possible before it breaks—still on the other hand it must not bend so easily it lacks rigidity. The weight of iron does not determine its strength, but the proportion of its mixture and proper manufacture together do. There is just the right method of manufacture and mixture of iron that is just right for greenhouses. Every house we sell you will, every time, have the same right iron, because we buy the same right iron mixture every time-no matter whether the price is up or down. It's just another one of the things you can depend on depending on in Hitchings houses. "We go anywhere for ; Remember it when you are ready to do Two Iron Framers of C. H.
