THE RADFORD 
 IDEAL HOMES 
 
 SEVENTH EDITION 
 
 MARCH, 1903 
 
 N PRESENTING this, the seventh edition of 
 The Radford Ideal Homes to the public, 
 the publishers wish to thank those who have 
 shown so much appreciation for the first six 
 editions, and who have shown their apprecia- 
 tion not only by ordering the books, but by 
 buying and favorably commenting on the blue 
 prints and specifications. The encouragement 
 we have received has been the means of urging us to print this 
 seventh issue in larger quantity than heretofore. As the houses 
 are moderate in price and convenient in arrangement, we feel 
 sure of securing liberal patronage. In the planning of all our 
 designs, we have recognized the fact that the people of to-day de- 
 mand modern appearances, as well as the different conveniences, 
 when they decide upon building a home. A great deal of time 
 and study has been spent on each design, and every set of plans 
 will be found complete and accurate in all details, no labor 
 having been spared where any small advantage could be gained. 
 Many people are surprised that we can furnish blue prints and 
 specifications of such up-to-date houses at the price for which 
 we advertise them, and we could not were it not for the fact 
 that we have succeeded in supplying the demand for the very 
 thing that the people have been looking for, namely, a moderate 
 priced, convenient house. All of these plans have been made 
 for us by a licensed architect of the State of Illinois. They are 
 accurate and complete in every detail. 
 
 WHAT WE FURNISH 
 IN BLUE PRINTS 
 
 Foundation and This sheet shows the shape and size of all 
 walls, piers, footings, posts, etc., and of what 
 
 Cellar Plan 
 
 materials they are constructed ; shows the 
 
 location of all windows, doors, chimneys, ash-pits, partitions and 
 the like. The different wall sections are given, showing their 
 construction, and measurements are given from all the different 
 points. 
 
Floor Plans These plans show the shape and size of all 
 
 rooms, halls and closets, the location and sizes 
 of all doors and windows, the position of all plumbing fixtures, 
 gas lights, registers, pantry work, etc. All measurements that 
 are necessary are given. 
 
 Elevations -^ front, right, left and rear elevations are 
 
 furnished with all plans. These drawings are 
 complete and accurate in every respect. They show the shape, 
 size and location of all doors and windows, porches, cornices, 
 towers, bays, and the like, and in fact give you an exact scale 
 picture of the house as it should be at completion. Full wall 
 sections are given, showing the construction from foundation to 
 roof, the height of stories between joists, height of plates, pitch 
 of roofs, etc. 
 
 Roof Plan "^^'^ P'^" '^ furnished where the roof construc- 
 
 tion is at all intricate. It shows the location 
 of all hips, valleys, ridges, decks, etc. All the above drawings 
 are made a quarter of an inch to the foot. 
 
 Details "^'^ necessary details of the interior work, such 
 
 as door and window casings, and trim, base, 
 stools, picture moulding, doors, newelposts, balusters, rails, etc., 
 accompany each set of plans; part is shown in full size, while 
 some of the larger work, such as stair construction, is drawn to a 
 scale of inch and a half to the foot. 
 
 Lumber Bill ^^ ^° "°* furnish a lumber bill. We state 
 
 this here, as some people seem to think that a 
 lumber bill should accompany each set of specifications. In 
 the first place, our plans are gotten up very plain, and any car- 
 penter who cannot in a few minutes take off the bill of lumber 
 from these plans is not the man to build your house. Another 
 reason why we send no lumber bill is that houses from these 
 designs are being built in all parts of the country ; from the 
 Atlantic to the Pacific and from Hudson Bay to the Gulf of 
 Mexico. Houses when finished may look the same, whether built 
 in Florida or Canada, but the same material would not be used, 
 for the reason that custom and the seasons will it differently. 
 
 Change of Plans ^^ cannot change our plans for the reason 
 ■ that every plan we have drawn is used as a 
 negative, and the blue prints we sell you are photographed from 
 that negative.

 Why Our 
 
 Plans Should 
 Be Used 
 
 They can be made the 
 basis of contract between 
 owner and contractor. 
 
 They will prevent mis- 
 takes, which cost money. 
 
 They will prevent dis- 
 putes, which are unpleas- 
 ant and never settled sat- 
 isfactorily to both parties. 
 
 Time and money is 
 saved by having on the 
 job plans and specifica- 
 tions for the workmen to 
 consult. 
 
 With them it will not 
 be necessary to waste 
 time waiting forthe owner 
 or contractor to direct the 
 work. 
 
 It costs but little more 
 to have a modern, con- 
 venient and pretty home, 
 thananoldstyleboxhouse. 
 
 Any slight, unimportant 
 changes which may be 
 desired, can be noted on 
 the plan and entered in 
 the book of specifications, 
 thereby having a record. 
 
 They will save money 
 for the material dealer, 
 because the sizes of all 
 openings are plainly spe- 
 cified, and there is no 
 chance for error or dispute. 
 They will save many 
 times their cost during the 
 erection of any house.

 1 § 
 
 
 1 Q 
 
 
Estimated Cost 
 
 It is impossible for any one to estimate the cost of a building and 
 have the figures hold good in all sections oi the country. 
 
 We do not claim to be able to do it. 
 
 The estimated cost of the houses we illustrate is based on the most 
 favorable conditions in all respects and does not include Plumbing and 
 Heating. 
 
 Possibly these houses cannot be built by you at the prices we name 
 because we have used minimum material and labor prices as our basis. 
 
 The home builder should consult the Lumber Dealer, the Hardware 
 Dealer, and the Reliable Contractors of his town. Their knowledge of 
 conditions in your particular locality makes them, and them only, 
 capable of making you a correct estimate of the cost. 
 
 Special Plans 
 
 Although the home builder in most cases can use one of the many 
 plans we illustrate, and thereby save money in the cost of his plans, 
 yet there are cases when a particular house we illustrate would be 
 more satisfactory if the arrangement of the rooms were slightly 
 different. Sometimes he wishes to have his own ideas carried out 
 and requires special arrangements. Sometimes he wishes the interior 
 of one house and the exterior of another. 
 
 To provide for this work, we have established a special department 
 under the supervision of a licensed architect. While it will be 
 impossible to furnish the complete special plans and specifications at 
 as low price as our regular work, we will, however, make some very 
 reasonable prices. 
 
 If you wish estimates on the cost of special plans, kindly send in 
 your sketches showing the arrangement of the rooms and any other 
 information which it is necessary for us to have as a basis to figure 
 your work intelligently.
