Start Right 

 Right at the Start 



This little chat has to do with inoney-savitig- 

 foresight. To have i'oresiglit, you must 

 imagine what is going to happen. You must 

 imagine, for example, how things will be 

 when you have ten times as many houses. 



How you will heat them, and work them. 



The loralioii of your power plant and first 

 house is going to govern everything you do 

 afterwards. 



Of course, tiir nearer to a railroad, the l)et- 

 ter for your <,'oal supply. 



A switch riglit to your power house' and an 

 ciovaled 1i"osti(» is tlic thing. 



Then you fiiii duiiii) it rigiil iiitu a sl()j>ing- 

 sidt'd bin and always have your c<»<>l to the 

 I'lont of lln' l)iii, I'cady to shovel. 



When you can, locate your house so as to do 

 as little future grading as i)Ossible. 



Such woi'k iMuis up into money fast. 



The i)reseMt-day layouts seem to he favor- 

 ing what is called a "Balanced Plan." 

 The i)0wer plant is placed in the center, and 

 separate, passage-connected houses built on 

 either side. 



Such a layout means an economically bal- 

 anced distribution of heat. It aqualizes the 

 distance in working the houses. By building 

 each house the same size you can work them 

 as units, knowing exactly what it costs t(' 

 crop each, and approximately what crop to 

 expect. The adding of a house means only 

 that much coal and help. You know exactly 

 how to iigure, and what to count on. 



.\fter you have definitely settled on your 



plan of development, stick to it. 



Don't let every good-intentioned givei' of 



free advice change your mind. 



Mut lii'st be sure your plan is right. Our 



years of experience in such matters is always 



at \our dis])osal. 



It's a i)art of our exjiert service we are glad 

 to olfer vou.
