How 'the Cost of a Building Is Distributed
That the general public has the impression that the price of
lumber precludes the possibility of building homes la a fact.
That this idea has been fastened unjustly by a great government
department at Washington through imposition upon the daily and
weekly press of the country of garbled extracts trom a recent Forest
Service report is also certain.
That the real facts show that in the average sized frame real-
denee, lumber and mill work at retell poices do not represent, at the
outside more than one-third of the total cost of the building Is also
true. a 0"”
The American Lumberman has been gathering some data and
presents a detailed statement of the cost of a house 24x28, contain-
ing four rooms and a closet on the first floor. with two bed meme. 0.

BAD ACCIDENT
AT . MUNICIPAL
ELECTRIC WORKS
(Continued tram Page One)
_——.
From the standpoint of local light-
ing and power needs, Mr. Winchester
said4 “'Such an accident at this sea-
son. with applications for the service
coming too fast to be taken care of
properly and the heaviest load in the
history of the plant to be met. is es-
pecially deplorable as it has still fur.
ther diminished the capacity of facili-
tes whch had already been reduced
to inadequacy by the economically
prohibitive fuel conditions that have
prevailed ever since the war. More-
over. the purchase supply of elec-
tricity, as derived from the railroad
and which has been depended upon
to fill the deficiency. has of late been
particularly unreliable. and though
plans are well underway to better
trouble. the change cannot be made
until next year."
Vi‘ith regard to the arrangements
for adding to the plant's capacity. the
Sup’t. replied that “Everything that
the, Electrical Commissioners could do
has been done to that end. by award-
ing all necessary contracts for the
new machinery and building construc-
tion to be ready in ample time. These
they have followed up with the high-
est influences that could be brought
Io hear. But with long strikes at
factories. scant supplies and other
too ready excuses for holdups. they
have not been able to obtain the ful-
fillment of the dates for deliveries
