18 or 25 Foot House -Which ? 



IF you put that question up to us, we would 

 promptly vote for the 25 footer. That vote 

 would be "influenced," by the plain common- 

 sense fact that for but a little more money you get 

 additional room out of all proportion to the cost. 



That seven extra feet in width gives you 275 

 square feet more bench space in a house 50 feet 

 long. To say it another way; in an 18 foot house 

 you have two side benches each 3 ft. wide, and a 

 centre one 6 ft. wide. 

 Besides 2 walks each 2 ft. 

 6 in. 



In the 25 footer, you have 

 2 benches, each 3 ft. wide, 

 with 2 centre benches 5 ft. 



wide. 



18 ft. 3 bench house. 



In the IS foot house 550 square feet are yours for 

 lienches; and 250 taken by walks. 



In the 25 foot~800 for benches, and 350 for 

 walks. 



For further demonstration supposing an 18 foot 

 house of a certain length cost $2,900. The 25 foot 

 one of same length would cost but $3,600, $700 

 additional gives you 250 square feet more bench 

 room. 



You also have more air 

 space, and can ventilate more 

 freely without danger of in- 

 jury. 



How about it — want a figure 

 on one of our 25 foot houses? 



25 ft. 4 bench house.
