The heat Of the present summer
ought to have some effect upon the
construction of homes with reference
10 warm weather. In every large city,
and even In the country for that mat
ter, all houses OF considerable size
should have some special provision for
excessive heat as well as for extreme
cold. says the Kansas City Star. The
roof garden idea is capable Of wide
application. II may be utilized In an
elaborate way In connection with fine
homes, or It may be employed In n
limited but saving extent in building
smaller houses. For the past few
weeks those who have had large veran-
das or dat roofs, especially such as
could be resorted TO as improyised
sleeping quarters, have enjoyed an in
estmable advantage over those who
have been forced TO occupy close rooms,
shut off from the breezes that alone
have made life tolerable. The time
will come when there will be a general
revolution In house construction with
reference to hot seasons. particularly
In the warmer climates.
