It is just like all their other greenhouses. There's a man "way down in Dixie," however, who roiited-up his front with one of our curved eave houses, making it look like a great, f)ig, line llower- lilled show case. Back of it, are the regular plaiu-clothes growing houses. In tliat front house he has on show some of all the things grown in the other houses. No need to tell you how that front sells for tlie other houses. Here's another case. It is of a grower whose range is on one of the main Pikes into Philadelphia. On the entire front of his range is a curved eave house. Some folks have a way of speaking in a laughing way about Philadelphia being "; I heard a Western florist say recently, that "the only thing that runs in Philadelphia is the river Schuylkill—and even it runs through, and on its way as soon as ; It is an old. old joke which originated the day before Benjamin Franklin made it his home town. The way it looks around that same Western man's greenhouses, it is plain as day he could well aft'ord to take a hint from this Philadelphian, not to men- tion the Dixie man. If you have a lot of growing houses, why not make your next one a selling house—one in which to better show what you iiave to sell? Say when and where, and we'll be there to talk it over with you. or4& JBurnhamlo. Builders of Greenhouses and Conservatories IRVINGTON NEW YORK New York 42nd St. Bldg.
