(Page Thirty-one) Unadilla Decorative Yard and Garden Furniture is made of selected, durable materials, White Pine and Spruce being largely employed because of their time- tried-and-proven adaptability to such constructions and capability of taking and retaining paint, for which reason fine appearance and perfect condition continue through the seasons with least subsequent thought or refinishing attention on the owner’s part. All posts that are designed to enter the ground are made of Chestnut, the wood-supreme for such purposes. The component parts of all pergolas, arbor seats, lattices, etc., are of dimen¬ sions that give symmetry and proportion to the construction as a whole and are easily set up by the most inexperienced person. The ready-to-erect sections or units just slip into place readily and fit accurately. Joints possess double strength in that they are both dowelled and glued together with the same water-proof glue as is used in making the planes of air-craft. All nails, brads, bolts and nuts are galvanized to prevent rusting and subsequent disfigurement of the furniture from such stains. Lastly, but all important, every decoration receives two coats of good white lead and oil paint before leaving our factory. Any of the pergolas shown in this catalog can be furnished with either round or square columns as purchaser prefers. The quotations appearing in the accompanying detached price list cover everything required to complete the construction above ground. They do not in¬ clude cost of foundation, erection, final coats of paint or transportation. Delivery is F. O. B. cars at Unadilla, N. Y. Instructions covering the building of a suitable and permanent foundation for the larger pieces and the erection thereon of the item purchased, are furnished with each order.
