 nomenal. The necessity for permanency 

 in construction which boomed the cement 

 iiulustry made the iron frame house the 

 logical house to build whether for private 

 or commercial purposes. In this connec- 

 tion it is generally conceded that the 

 lA)rd &■ Burnham Co. has, through its 

 advanced ideas and continuous and per- 

 sistent educational methods, been largely 

 instrumental in putting the iron frame 

 house where it is today. The growth of 

 this concern has been somewhat phenom- 

 enal. It was only a few years ago when 

 its enlarged 'business necessitated -the 

 doubling of the capacity of its Irving- 

 ton factory. The Western plant, at Des 

 IMaines, 111., has just been expanded, and 

 the company is now completing plans for 

 further extensive additions to the Irv- 

 ington plant. 



The concern's progressive policy is still 

 further reflected in the opening last 

 month of a branch ofBce in the Granite 

 Building, Rochester N, 7 with H. E.

 [an unusually broad one. In spendinjr 

 jpeveral years in the employ of green- 

 house concerns, he has acquired a fund 

 I of comparative construction information 

 which must prove of great advisory value 

 to prospective builders. The new office 



already has secured an order for an^

 are over. The outlook for greenhouse 

 building on private estates is also very 

 promising. 



More Facts 



About Our 



Rochester 



Office 



nPHIS reproductioa of a 

 news note clipped from 

 a last week's florist paper 

 doesn't say anything about 

 the territory our new Roch- 

 ester office includes. 



If you should draw a line, 

 starting from Rochester, 

 through Buffalo. Cleveland, 

 Pittsburgh, Wheeling, W. Va., 

 and then swing back to 

 Cleveland and across to 

 Utica, N. Y., and then take a 

 home stretch to Rochester, 

 you would have a rough 

 fence-in of the territory. 



Mr. Bates is now preparing 

 to make a trip around this 

 territory. 



If you want to see him 

 about building, better drop 

 him a line at once, so he can 

 arrange to stop off and see 

 you. 



A postal will bring him.
