What is all right and proper for one

for another. 1t makes a great deal
of difference in building whether a
man can go right along on one
straight job If you start on a plan
and work right around it without any
breaks the work moves along quickly

have to knock off now and then to
start some projection it feels TO the
contractor like commencing another

The plan this time is for a little
five-room cottage for $1,000. that is it
should be built for $1,000 in towns
and smaller cities where labor and
materials have not gone entirely out
of reach In these days of prosperity
1t seems to be necessary to jump a
little higher every time you reach
for something There is a limit, no
doubt, and we may reach 1t some day
In the meantime we will get as much
as we can for our own productions
and buy in the cheapest markets pos
sible
1t is difficult these times to build a
house for $1,000, but it can be done
if we hold our ambition sufficiently in
check You can have good deal of
comfort in a 81 900 house if you plant
it on the right lot and arrange it with
care to get the most for the money
1t is more difficult to plan satisfac-
tory cheap house than good house
twice as large. because we are ham
pered every time we undertake to
make move We have not room
enough to turn without humping into
some new problem.
You cant run hall down through
the middle of a small house without
wasting a whole lot of room. You
must have the house wider ii you do

above 2S feet in width you have quite
a roof problem to deal with. This
house is 2S feet wide and 40 feet long,
