EFFECT OF uTNEY BUS
ON GROWTH OF SUBURBS
Difference Of Opinion Regarding
This Form of Trans
portation.

Although the effect of jitney bus serv-
ice on the development of suburban
districts has been the subject of con-
siderable discussion in real estate cir
cles of other cities. there has been lit
tie talk by realty men of Washington
concerning this latest transportation
medium. This has been largely due to
the fact that the jitney has not yet be
come firmly established here, whereas
in other cities the nickel anywhere"
buses have been in operation for a year
| or more.
During the past two weeks, however.
several jitney lines have been estab-
| lished here, and promoters of this kind
of transportation say that in the near
future many more buses VIII be put
into service.
/ The operation of the jitney will be
| closely watched by realty men engaged
] in the handling of suburban properties.
| for there appears to be q great differ

suburban development. This was ap-
parent at meeting of the Chamber OF

the jitney situation was discussed by
members of that organization for more

in the city proper. Other members re-
| futed this statement by calling atten- :
ton 10 the fact that one of the iitney
| lines now in operation runs its buses
from Virginia suburbs into the heart OF
the city.
Those who spoke in opposition to the
unrestricted operation of jitneys de
cIared that the loss of short-haul busi-
ness within the city by reason of the
jitneys will force the street car COM
panies to curtail their suburban serv-
ice Others were of the opinion the

routes, since practically all of the
suburbs of Washington are accessible

life Of SH|NGLE ROOFS
DISCUSSED BY WRITER
Best Quality Cypress Will Last Fifty
Years. Says Edgar 7. P
Walker.

\ roof of cypress shingles of the best
quality may last for twenty-five to fifty
years, although the owner is likely, of
course to be obliged to spend something
| for repairs from time to time: it is even
claimed by the strongest advocates of
these shingles that they have lasted in
good condition, in some cases for over
fifty years, says Edgar T. F. Walker in
the House Beautiful. But cypress. while
it is the most durable wood for shingles.

Moreover. cypress shrinks more than
cedar unless very thoroughly kiln dried,
or unless dipped in oil or creosote-which,
OF course. is an additional expense.

as cypress; but being cheaper, slower

Expensive, But Durable,
In houses of brick. stone. stucco on
tile. or stucco on frame there is little
doubt that states or tile furnish the best
roof covering. In those parts of the
country where the winter is cold slate
has an advantage over the Spanish inter-
locking tile in that il sheds the snow
more readily: in appearance, too, the
blue, green or purple of slate roof
harmonizes much better with a snowy
landscape than do red tiles. One should
be careful to select slate which is hard
and tough. If it is too soft, the nail
holes will get enlarged and the slate will
loosen. If II is too brittle it is liable
TO break in the process of squaring and
holng. and II will be easily broken on
the roof. Hard, tough states are good
for all time and win seldom put the
house owner to the expense of repairing
or renovating
The cost of slate varies with the size
and quality, and also with the distance
from the quarries. but Sl4 may be given
as an average cost of slate and nails
for one roof square. Add to this $3.50
as the cost of labor, and contractors
profit of 10 per cent. and the total cost
of a slate roof will be something like
s21 80 per Square-more than twice that
of wood-shingle roof, even without
taking into account the additional cost
of the heavier roof frame

Long Cedar Excels.

For durability and cheapness the twen-
ty-inch-long Vancouver red cedar shingle
can be strongly recommended. These
shingles come as true in shape as the best
quality cypress: SO there is almost no
waste in the laying. A big advantage is
that they can be laid six inches to the
weather; the result is that fewer are
needed to cover the required surface and
consequently the labor is less. They will
last from twelve to eighteen years, and if
dipped in oil or creosote are good for
fifteen or twenty more. They cost $3.50
per thousand the cost of covering a roof
square is approximately $S. To choose
red cedar instead of cypress. then. is to
save roughly a dollar per roof square.
The sxteen-inch cedar shingles may
also be recommended, but they are not so
well milled nor SO thick at the butt end
as those of the 20-inch size Moreover,
many are found to be wasted in the lay
ing. and they can be laid only four and
one-half inches to the weather. There
fore, although they cost only s475 per
thousand. they are really no cheaper than
the twenty-inch shingle in the long run.
