Opening Finder windows in a dual monitor setup

I have a dual monitor setup.  I use an applescript that creates two
windows, one on top and one on bottom.  Here's a snippet of the code:

-- BOTTOM WINDOW
set this_window to make new Finder window
set the target of this_window to the startup_disk
set the bounds of this_window to {25, (528) div 1.15, monitor_width, 755}
set the current view of this_window to column view

-- TOP WINDOW
set this_window to make new Finder window
set the target of this_window to the startup_disk
set the bounds of this_window to {25, (142) div 1, monitor_width, 435}
set the current view of this_window to column view

how can I get the top and bottom windows to open in the 1st monitor
and also the 2nd monitor?  Right now it just opens windows in the 1st
monitor.
