OCTOBKB B. 1922 The Florists' Review 175. cKing G REENHOU SE S A Few Points of Superiority Found Only In Steel Frame Flat Rafter Construction (1) steel posts and rafters are spaced eight feet five inches apart regard- less of length or width of house. There's no possibility of sagging be- tween rafters or danger that wind and enow loads will collapse the house. (2) Purlins are spaced not more than four feet apart. These form a strong base to which sash bars are screwed. There's no vibration to loosen or break glass and cause roof to leak. (3) Frames are fastened together at ridge and eaves with doubled malle- able iron plates bolted onto both sides of frame. This prevents frames from twisting. (4) The interior posts and cross ties are threaded to malleable iron plates. The plates are bolted to the rafters. The roof is absolutely rigid and there's no chance for the rafter to pull away from the post or cross tie. (5) Tie rods from eve to ridge, from ridge to save and from grade to eave at gables prevent swaying in any direction and distribute strains. (6) Gables are braced with flat steel rafters and angle purlins fastened together with malleable fittings. The wind can't blow in or blow out this gable. (7) Sash bars, ridge, ventilator frames, doors and all other woodwork are of the lightest and strongest wood suit- able for the purpose. They're not affected by sun, rain, snow, acid or any other element. AH woodwork is guaranteed heartwood. (8) The quality of workmanship and ma- terial is of the best. (9) Longest service with the minimum cost for repairs. (10) Maximum production—minimum cost of operation.
