KANSAS SOD HOUSES.
Cheap Freight Rates Are Causing
Them to Disappear.

fFPt BIsIC SPECIAL.
Washington. July 4-''There Is one pie
turesque thing about the West which the
cheap freight rates are rapidly driving out
OF existence. ] mean the sod houses OF
Kansas" said D'Alvord u. Penwick of
wichita to-day. There are sod houses in
other parts of the West. of course, but I
am familiar only with those of my native
state. These structures are as strong and
much cheaper than brick. the farmer cuts
the sod for building purposes just as sod Is
cut Tor tTaIsplantinS grass. The buffalo
grass. which grows in almost all the Middle
western States is like a thick mat and is
very tough heritage. The slabs of sod. about
IL by a inches and inches thick. hold
together like thick rolls of felt. They are
laid In courses Ike the ordinary building
stone and pressed closely toCetAer. and the
ROOF Is made OF timbers and frequently
matched. The inside is then SnOothed with
native lime. which makes an excellent plas-
ter.
The coating of lime is sometimes ap-
Piled outside also. bat usually the outside
presents the natural color of the prairie in
winter. Sometimes the floor of the hut IL
made by excsvating a few feet and then
tramping the ground solid with horses; 9TH
erwise regular wood floor is laid. The
door and window frames are fitted in whils
building. as in stone houses. They only have
one room. generally. but sometimes two
or three rooms are fitted up. The elements
tend to make the sod one mass. rather than
TO dissipate and crumble IT, An ordinary
house built OF this material Will last five
years"
