roof is really the most vulnerable part
Of the house. Green slate would be
very appropriate, and would make a
beautiful contrast with the cement
walls. The roof in this design is
rather prominent, and, all things con-
sidered, slate would probably be the
most satisfactory.
One of the newer forms of roof con-
struction that-might be used, consists
of corrugated steel sheets resting on
light steel framework. The CORFU
cations are deep enough to prevent
any bending of the sheets between
supports. Waterproofed cement plas-
ter is spread over the sheets in a
coat about one inch thick, completely

The accompanying illustrations
show a house design especially adapt
ed to the needs of suburban or coun-
try building. The requirements for
a dwelling house for such location
are different in a good many respects
from those in a city. More attention
should be paid to the matter of max
ing the house as nearly fireproof as
possible; for in the country, as well
as in our smaller towns and suburbs,
there is little or no fire protection.
Accordingly, If building once takes
hre, nothing, as usual thing, can
be done except to watch 1t burn. OF
course, the fire risk from adjoining
buildings Is much greater In thicky
settled communities; but the fire
lighting apparatus which is quickly
available more than makes up for this
extra hazard.
The only wise and logical thing for
a man to do when he plans to invest
large amount of money in a subur-
ban or country home, is to build it
tireproof. With the modern building
materials now available, it is very
easy to do this; and the cost, although
considerably more than for frame, is
certainly not excessive when the fire
protection, the enduring character of
the house, etc., are taken into consid-
Grafton.
For the accompanying design,
thoroughly fireproof construction is
employed. The beauty and home-like
atmosphere Of this house make any
expenditure, however large, seem
worth while that will make it abso-
lutely safe and enduring, no matter
where 1t is built.
The walls of this house are formed
The Liberal democrat. [volume] (Liberal, Kan.) 1911-1924, 1913-12-12

of two by six-inch studding, well
braced; but they are covered both
inside and out with expanded metal
lath. The outside is plastered with
cement plaster applied in three coats;
thus there is fully one inch of natures
most fire-resistant material-cement-
on the outside of this house, COM
pletely surrounding the steel reinforc-
ing and thus protecting it against
rust. The inside surface of the walls,
and the surface of all the interior
partitions, are composed of one coat
of cement plaster on expanded metal
lath, with a finishing coat of hard wall
plaster.
The floors of this house are formed
of hollow terra-cotta tile made in mar
row fiat panels, between reinforced
concrete beams. The concrete beams

Mhat Indian summer L..

Indian summer is a name used to
describe a short season of pleasant
weather in the Central and Atlantic
coast states. 1t usually comes either
in October or November. There is no
definite time for Indian summer, but
as a rule 1t comes after the first severe
frost or series of frosts and storms.
1t is the season that is welcome be.
cause it comes after everyone has set.
tied down to expect real winter, and
Indian summer always holds winter of
for few more weeks. The season is
characterized by almost cloudless
skies, calm or light airs, hazy at.
mosphere and mild temperature in the
daytime. but rather cool at night.

are four inches square, reinforced
with twisted steel rods. On top of
this concrete and terra-cotta floor, a
one-inch coat of cinder concrete is
laid on these strips, being nailed down
securely. For the ceiling finish, the
wall plaster is applied directly to the
underside of the concrete beams and
theNtiles. This makes floor that is
thoroughly fireproof, very warm and
not excessively heavy.
The roof of this house may be con-
structed in number of ways; yet it
should be made fireproof, since the

plans show a large parlor or living
room, dining room, kitchen and recep-
ton hall on the first floor. Upstairs
there are four bedrooms and a bath
room.
The cost of this house is estimated
at $4,000, using good grade of ma
terials and most thorough construc-
ton, The size of this house, "a feet
6 inches wide, by 80 feet 6 inches
deep from front to back, makes it
very suitable for the ordinary subur-
ban 50-foot lot.

filling the corrugations. This metho }
would certainly make fireproof roof,
and the cement could be easily col
ored to make an effective contrast
with the side walls.
Native square stone is used to very
good purpose in this design, for the
large chimney and for the porch piers
and arch. This stonework gives the
house an added appearance of stabil.
ity.

leaves little to be desired. The floor

ADVICE

Bob Burdette always gives good ad-
vice, and he has a trite wa of express

way he addresses his son and it is
just as good for anybody else's son:

the world run by, while you get &C
