It
We know manufacturing
as well as factory building
It requires a thorough knowledge of manufacturing to produce a
modern industrial plant of utmost efficiency.
Factories are too often planned and constructed by men who know
BUILDINGS but do not know MANUFACTURING.
But factories are buildings only secondarily. They are primarily
super-machines whose first and most important function is the efficient
production of goods with greatest profit to the owner.
These are the kinds of factories we build, BECAUSE WE ARE
SKILLED IN THE MOST MODERN METHODS OF PLANT OPERA
TION AS WELL AS PLANT CONSTRUCTION.
During the 56 years of our career as industrial constructors, we
have planned, built and equipped many factories in a hundred different
lines of industry.
Our experience in solving the building problems of so extensive and
varied a manufacturing clientele is the foundation of our present service
to the manufacturers of Philadelphia.
We have proven time and again our ability to decrease production
tost and increase production capacity by our improved methods of rout
ing materials, laying out machinery, co-ordinating departments, selecting
and installing power and planning every detail of the great super-machine
which converts raw materials into the finished product.
If you are a manufneturerthinking of building, rebuilding
or adding to your plant, consult us. We shall be glad to prove to
you the value of our services without obligating you in any way.
A phone call or a letter is sufficient introduction for an interview.
Here are the names of a few firms for whom Wm. Steele &
Sons Co. is at present planning, designing or building industrial
plants:

It's like Living in the Country
nrn.. .ii..... j- r im1 Ufa Kan nAOM rtn rlnnn uatice. Out there in tho
open apace, a man's soul can expand as he drinks In God'a pure air and feasts on
nature bounties direct from her vast storehouse.
We are not all fortunate. enough to live in tho country, but through tho
American 'Stores Company's Producer-to-Consumer Plan, everyone can emoy
almost the same benefits as the farmer derives from being near the source of sup
ply of his table needs. We bring tho farm products direct from tho farm to
your tabloJ-which means fresh foods at lower prices. The only thing the mid
dleman" usually succeeds in accomplishing is to make the goods mort expensive
when they reach your table because of the unnecessary profit, he has added on.
Our Producer-to-Consumer Plan works equally well In all other lines of groc
eries. We are the connecting link between your table and the actual producer
the farmer, the miller, tho caniter, the packer. .
That we are saving the public money by this Plan is reflected In the lower
prices at which groceries are selling in all the "Asco" StoreB, in the four States
covered by bur System.
Give this a thought
What wouM groceries be costing today were It not for the American Stores Co.7
