The aim of man from the beginning has been to make his building materials as nearly like nat- ural stone as possible. The great labor required to quarry stone led him to seek various manufactured substitutes. The only reason he ever used wood was that it was easiest to get and most convenient to use. Wood is no longer easy to get. Like most building material, its cost is in- creasing at an alarming rate. The coat of concrete is decreasing. So, from the standpoint of either ser- vice or economy, Concrete is the best building material. Canada's fanners are using more concrete, in proportion to their numbers, than the farmers of any other country. -Why? Because they are being supplied with Canadi Cement O cement of the highest possible quality, which in.. sures the success of their concrete work. The secret of concrete's popularity in Canada lies in tholact that while we have been advertising the:use of concrete, we heve aiso been producing; by scion. tine methods, a cement so uniformly high in onnlity that th`e concrete made with it gives the complete satislaction our advertisements promised. •, .4,,-...,x, Concrete would not have been in such universal uses ..P..
