How Cement Stone Makers Lose Money 



A FEW FACTS WHICH WILL BE OF INTEREST 

 TO MANUFACTURERS OF CEMENT STONE 



THERE are to-day large companies in most every part of the world 

 manufacturing; cement stone for building purposes, but how many are 

 in a position to take a set of plans from an architect and make the 

 stone to fit said plans ? 



tj Now, this is just where the manufacturers are losing considerable trade 

 and money. To be successful in this business it is absolutely necessary to have 

 a machine that will make hollow stone of all the essential sizes and designs, 

 water tables, sills, lintels, coping, ornamental, etc., up to six feet long. 



q The demand for water tables, sills and lintels is as great if not greater than 

 for hollow stone, for many architects specify same for buildings constructed of 

 other material, and the profits are considerably larger for this class of work. 



q If you could visit one of the many plants scattered throughout the United 

 States operating 



you would immediately 

 appreciate its superiority. 



THE HERCULES 



•J It makes everything essential for building construction; not that alone, for 

 it produces stone that is stone,, and at minimum cost. It produces two 

 stones at one operation, which feature alone reduces your labor item to 

 almost one-half. 



q Let us send you our catalogue ' C" and tell you all about it. It might be 

 the means of your saving thousands of dollars yearly. It is saving it for others — 

 why not for you? 



tj Write to-day — it means money to you.
