For exam-ple, if it is desired to know the probable costof a mill 4U0 ft. long by 100 ft. wide by 3stories high, refer to the sheet showing thecost of three story buildings. On the curvefor buildings 100 ft. wide, find the pointwhere the vertical line of 400 ft. in lengthcuts the curve, then move horizontally alongthis line to the left hand vertical line, onwhich will be found the cost of 81 cts. The cost given is for brick manufacturingbuildings under average conditions and can bemodified if necessary for the following condi-tions : (a) If the soil is poor or the conditions ofthe site are such as to require more than theordinary a
