Good Time to Build.

Lumber dealers and material men
report that this is good time to
build to take advantage Of an album
dance OF building material They say
that houses can be built at a price
perhaps per cent cheaper than last
year, when the greatest building
boom was on Last year it was diff
cult to buy cement, lumber, etc. and
get house up in schedule time, but
the withdrawal Of a good many of
people from this years market has
made material more available.
Contractors lose money when de-
lays occur. and since they can go
ahead at present they figure their
prices a little lower. Hence the BEN
eft TO the owner. who has heretofore
been in a crowded market Some
building materials are a trifle lower
and some trifle higher. but the saw
ing to the consumer at the present
time, it is estimated, Is about 5 per
cent.

ern railroads. The court held the
rates valid as to the st. Louis South
western, the Missouri Pacific, the St.
Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern, the
Wabash, the Chicago. Milwaukee &

The decision holding the rates con
fiscatory as. to the Chicago, Great

of stipulation between the state and
the railroads, to the Quincy, Omaha
& Kansas City railroad and the St Jo-
senh & Grand Island railway.
The decision was based on the two
cent passenger law and the maximum
freight law.
Justice Hughes, who announced the
decision. held that the point sought to
be made by the railroads to the effect
that the Missouri rates were an inter
ference with interstate commerce,
must be decided against them for the
same reasons given by the court in the
Minnesota rate cases. The court also
sustained the rates of the Missouri
