BUILD YOUH HOME OF WOOD
WOOD is a Basic Building material. For generations America
Ime used wood for home building. Thousands of skilled craftsmen*
can apply time-tested building principles to transform your build-
ing dreams into a home that you will be proud to own.
Wood construction best expresses most of America’s architectural
styles. Only in wood can you achieve the warmth and individuality
that you want in your home.
Wood is practical. Rooms can be added, or remodeled with ease
and economy. You can change the color scheme to suit your taste.
Wood is economical. The lumber for a modem six-room all-wood
home usually represents less than 20% of the total cost. WHl
designed homes of wood are always popular.
See us soon—we will help you with your building plans.
