Beauty and Economy Combine 
In an Indiana Limestone Home 
Stone construction always has been 
the exponent of permanence and 
stability. Our ancestors built their 
modest homes of stone—crudely, 
to be sure, but homes which lasted 
for generations. 
And no building material has sup¬ 
planted stone in beauty and dura¬ 
bility. The perfection of modern 
machinery has removed all of the 
difficulties with which our fore¬ 
bears had to contend in construc¬ 
tion and has so greatly reduced the 
cost of producing stone that today 
it is conceded to be an economical 
form of construction. 
For the past fifty years Indiana Lime¬ 
stone has been the practicable build¬ 
ing stone. The central location of 
the limestone district affords 
splendid transportation facilities. 
Millions of dollars have been in¬ 
vested in this great industry and 
the quarries are the most highly 
developed in the world. 
These facts are of momentous 
importance to prospective home 
builders, for they may obtain this 
stone in any quantities at a sur¬ 
prisingly moderate cost. And what 
is more beautiful than a home of 
natural stone!
