Lumber Holds Own
in Home Building
BMMN it can Im adapted
to all kinds of structure
and be made to tit all .sized
jKHiket books. It's the most,
elastic building material on
earth and, judged from the
view)oint of health, makes
the best all round house
you can build. It's a ioor
conductor of heat or cold
and rejects dampness abso
lutely, keeping your house
rM from mattinGM and
bad odors common to so
many other kinds of build
ing material. Prove we arc
light yourself by jotting
down these features and
thetl v isit a few of the frame
houses right here at home.
This may seem a lot of
trouble, but you don't build
a home every year and it
pays to build wisely. It
also pays to look closely at
the kind of lumber you use.
There are many many va
rieties and they all have a
favored purpose. We know
their uses ASK US.
