The 40-Foot House Of Our Number Two Construction It's a Full Iron Frame For the Cost of a Semi-Iron II is Qot at all surprising' that so many have beea kind of skeptical about it being possible to build a lull iron frame house for the same cost as a Semi- Iron, and still have it be Lord & Burnham's high standard of (luality. The truth of the mattt-r is, that when we first started to make up the couiparalive figures between the two constructions, it was a decided suri)rise to us. Checking up each figure carefully, we found that because we were making more full iron frame houses than any other, the increased quantity had reduced the manufacturiuL' cost. Then when it came to erection, the full iron frame, because of both the way it is constructed, and the fact of there being less small things to fasten together on the job, costs much less to erect than the Semi-Iron. We have succeeded in getting the manufacturing costs down so fine, that the full iron frame mater- ials by themselves, for the number 2 construction, only cost llK'c more than Semi-Iron. When you have gone in one of the houses and looked it over point by point, you'll say: "Well, it beats me how r^. & \i. can build it for the same money as the ; The fact remains that we do it. And after all, that's what interests you when it comes to paying for it.
