SECTIONAL VIEW.

be desired. The fact that frost never
forms in the ground here and also that
rain as much as it may the porous earth
absorbs the water as fast as it falls ac-
counts for the durability of such light
and superficial supporting walls.
There are comparatively few two story
buildings, the prevailing residences be-
ing what are called cottages" The
first floors are elevated from four to
eight feet above the ground, and are sup
ported upon 2 by scantling stood on
end. The frame and floor joists are put
down, and the floor is laid before the
house proper is framed. Then the stud
ding is put up, resting on the floor, and
the framework thus completed. The
siding is nailed on and holds the frame
together. The basement is rarely uti-
lized otherwise than as "catch all" for
odds and ends. One corner may be
foored and used as laundry, and coal
bin is also boxed off in one corner. The
object Of these high Easements is partly
to get away from the dampness of win
ter, and also to give the sand feas do
main of their own.
In this way also the windows of Sleep
ing apartments are elevated above the
line of vision of passing pedestrians and
peppers" In rare instances kitchens
and dining rooms are finished in the
Easements, and where Chinese servants
are kept they have kennel in the unfin-
ished basement.
Very rarely are sleeping rooms pro-
vided in the attics. The rule is to have
from four to six rooms on the main floor,
and dining rooms serve also as sitting
rooms, while the bed chambers are
small rooms cut off ON one side of the
building.
Cellars are but little used, for the rea-
son that vegetables, potatoes and apples,
and such 'truck" as the eastern house
keeper stores in the fall, are not stored
here The people depend upon the
markets and greengrocers for every
thing in season" 1t would not keep
long if it were stored, and the same need
for laying by winter provender does not
exist here.
Two story houses must also have the
high basement, and this makes the ap-
pearance of such buildings out of grace
full proportion. Bay windows prevail
everywhere, the object being to get all
the sunshine possible.
Brick residences are rare. The coars-
est kind of brick used in foundations
cost $50 per thousand laid in walls, and
pressed brick are $50 per thousand in
walls. So that even if brick houses were
desirable here the cost would prevent
many from building them. Redwood is
used universally for siding in rustic
form and also for finishing purposes.
Oregon fir and pine form the frame
work. Redwood shingles are used for
roofs. Redwood is not readily combus-
tible, and hence fires are not as frequent
as one might expect in wooden city.
Another fortunate fact in connection
with the wooden structures is that fires
are needed but little except for cooking
purposes. The soft coal burns freely
and makes but little spark, and is safe
from the fire risk standpoint.

CALIFORNIA ARCHITECTURE.
houses Built on the Sand that DO
not Fall Down.

Correspondence OF Lne 1TeSS.l
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 2o.-Two men
once upon time builded each house.
One was wise and built upon stone
foundation and it stood, while the other
fellow built on a sand bank and his
house fell. The inference to be drawn
from the incident is not to build on
sand. But whether or not that is ten
able conclusion depends upon the char
acter of the sand.
In these parts not to build ON sand
foundation is not to build at all. And,
furthermore. there is no better founha-
t;op than this same California sand.
In the lower parts of this city, where
the land is filled in with rubbish, such
as tin cans, old boots, etc., before a
foundation is laid, long piles must be
driven to great depth, in order to secure
any degree of stability to the building.
In some instances piles are driven down
ninety feet into soft earth, and are al
most solid, so close together are they
put. Then these are covered over with
pounded dirt, and coating of cement
forms basis for the stone or brick work.
In the suburbs, however, where the
land is not filled in bay or marsh, all
that is done before building is to level
off the sand and lay a few courses of
brick. simply enough TO keep the wooden
sills from the damp earth in winter, and
then RAJ the building.
The common custom is to have four
or five courses of brick under the sills.
They are arranged with the foundation
course made by laying two rows Of brick
end to end, thus making a foundation
16 inches wide. Then upon these is
laid second tier, 10 inches wide,
or one whole and one half brick, ends
joining. Then third tier consists of
one brick on top of the second tier.
Then one or two bricks are laid end to
end, parallel with the sill, which is 4
inches wide. A sectional view of y
foundation will illustrate the common
residence support.
The bricks are inches wide, s inches
long and to inches thick. They are
