Your Farm Home Can be Built as Attractive as the
One Depicted Above
There was a time when farming meant self-denial. This
was before porcelain bath tubs, telephones, electric lights, auto
mobiles and well-built homes were found on farms. In passing,
it mijcht also be added that it was about this time that parents
were finding difficulty in keeping their boys and girls on the farms
Today nothing is denied the farmer that is enjoyed by his'
city brother. This is particularly true of the home. Ticture the
home shown above on YOUR farm. It can be built there.
Many farmers who have the refinement and good taste to
desire to improve their home conditions are putting off building
until prices become lower. Do you know when lower prices will
be brought about? Or that they ever will?
Every farmer expects to pay higher wages during this har
vest than last. And present indications point to still higher
wages for 1921. There is really very little hope of bringing
down the present scale of wages. The aim is now to prevent it
from going higher.
To a great degree, labor influences the prices of all commodi
ties. When labor is high, materials are high.
If labor goes higher, materials will again advance. And
everthing tends to show that prices have not yet' reached their
peak.
Last year you could have built for less than ycu can this
year. This year it will cost you less than next This is the
reason we are preaching the doctrin of BUILD NOW! This is
true not only of your farm home, but of jour outbuildings as
well. Don't go on denying yourself the comforts and pleasure
that a modern home will afford you on the farm, while you wait
for prices to go down. BUILD NOW, it's cheaper!
We are" prepared to offer every building assistance to the
farmer who has foresight enough to BUILD NOW. We have
photographs of houses we have actually built for him to choose
from. We have hundreds of plans for farm homes and outbuild
ings, and their cost estimates. They are his for the asking.
Make use of our Building Information Office- It was estab
lished for your benefit. There is not the slightest obligation
imposed by you using it. This information is worth coming a
long way to turn to your own advantage. Use it!
