Greatly adds to Strength of House A Our patented malleable iron bar bracket hooks over top of flange on channel gutter and is then driven firmly in place with a hammer. No bolts or drilling of gutters necessary. Screw hole in roof bar is bored at factory. End of roof bar is exposed, allowing free circulation of air; end of bar can be easily painted, thereby preventing decay. B Method of attaching roof bars to ridge. Galvanized ridge and bar tie below is screwed lo under sides of ridge and roof bars. On top of roof a screw is driven through tongue of bar into ridge. C Galvanized sill and bar tie where wooden gutters are used. Also long screw through tongue of roof bar, se- curely fastens bar to concentric sill. D Bars cut concentric principle, permitting condensation from drip grooves in bars to fall free of sill into drip conductor, thereby preventing decay so commonly found where the old style bevel sill and bevel cut bars are used. The boring of the roof bars at the factory and furnishing galvanized ridge and sill ties with galvan- ized screws eliminates the poor job and extra work which "toe-nailing" invariably means. Actual tests have proven that this improved construction of ours is considerably stronger than the old way. This is not an experiment. It is just one of the many features which make the "Foley House" super- ior to any other type. THE FOLEY GREENHOUSE MFG. CO. 3248 West 31st Street, CHICAGO, ILL. GLEN COVE, N. Y.
