I Do you Know the Facts 1 About Building Costs?
Do you know that lumber aud building materials arc down?
Have yuu tallied to us lalciy about building?
Do you know bow reasonably you can make needed repairs, &uild your new home, or remodel your old une?
Better get in touch with the situation at once.
Tbe big building program that was expected in 1920 failed to develop. The manufacturers were caught with too large gtockB. and were forced to turn thom over at almost cost.
We can show you a subslautinl saving on every item in our line.
But It's only fair to tell you this condition may be only temporary. Th« country is short more than a million homes. Our own city Is short 600,000 homes. When people begin to do this long delayed building, demand will increase rapidly, creat¬ ing another shortage pf materrals, and prices will advance again.
. If you are planning to build, remodel, or repair, come In and let us give you figures. Then when we show you the actual savings over last year's prices and show you how favorably present costs compare with those of 1914, make your own decision.
Get in touch with us today.
