You who have been waiting for lower prices
before you laid that hardwood floor, renewed
those old walls and ceilings, re-roofed the house
or barn, or built the garage—this message is
directed to you.
Do you know that lumber and building
material prices are down 50 per cent?
Do you know that you can repair or re-
model cheaper than at any time in the past ffve
years?
Do you realize that every day you wait not
only inconveniences you but cost you real money?
Building material prices may come down
more—we think not—but every day you delay
in getting the new garage deprives you of the
use of it, and causes you to pay out money for
garage rent.
Every day you delay roofing the barn and
the home, makes your property more liable to
damage from storm. Every day you put off in-
side repairs the trouble increases and the total
expense becomes greater.
Do your repairing and remodeling at the
present bargain prices and get the benefit now.
Come in today and let us figure your job.
Begin getting the benefit now.
