A few years ago cement house
was felt TO be an uncertain quantity!
and here and there, even to this day,
we find a few lingering remnants OF
the old prejudice against this type OF
construction. But now that the man
ufacture of Portland cement has been
mechanically and scientifically per-
fected, and experience has taught the
world absolutely safe and reliable
methods Of using It IN the mixing and
structural application of concrete, peo-
pie everywhere are coming In in
creasing numbers to recognize that
the cement house may be just as at
tractive as any other, just as dry
and healthful and light and CHEEKY.
and may possibly be in the long run
Just little bit the most economical.
In the accompanying perspective
and floor plan we illustrate a very
attractive little house design espe-
cially adapted to cement stucco con.
struction, type OF construction which
is forging its way into increasing Ia
vor because OF its pleasing appear
ance when appropriately designed,
and its comparative cheapness. This
house is OF the characteristic west
ern bungalow style 1t is very com.
pact and convenient in arrangement,
all space being used to good advan-
tage. Five good-sized rooms are pro-
vided, besides bath room and pan
try, each room being very well
lighted and each bedroom having a
capacious closet.
Many practical builders have said
that the bungalow is fad, no doubt
good enough. 1t is true, for southern
California or the southern states,
such as Florida and Louisiana, but
in the main not suitable for practical
building throughout the country at
large. 1t has been affirmed that the
cost of the bungalow style dwelling is
far in excess of that OF the ordinary
type two-story house providing the
same accommodations.
Criticisms against the bungalow
have been due. not so much to the
real characteristics of the style itself,
