ABOUT THIS IRON 



That goes into the castings of the B.-H.-P. Co/s houses 



Now there is just as much difference in iron as there is in anything else — especially 

 a difference in price — some iron has greater bearing strength, stands sudden changes of 

 temperature, with less cracking liability. 



Then there is the question of SCRAP for castings : Now iron is at its best in its 

 first casting, when' all the parts unite freely, evenly and with their greatest strength. 

 Put that casting to certain strains and just that much strength is taken from it. Melt- 

 ing it up and re-casting cannot give it back that strength, neither will that casting be 

 as fine in its granulations* 



The finer the granulations are, the stronger the iron, the less the action of rust 

 upon it* 



Every iron part, from the foot piece up, that goes into our houses is high-class* 



This is a good starting point to think over about our houses -you knew there was 

 a difference in Cypress but you never thought the difference in iron made any differ- 

 ence — but it does* 



Next week we sh^U talk over with you the matter of cast- 

 iron loot pieces— the holding parta of our houses.
