is that our people shall be impressed
with the necessity of economizing in
the consumption of articles of cloth

1.-THE construction OF home is based
on set principles which are about the
same for a $4,000 house as for $1,000

In the cost Is represented in the house
by details. These details may be larger
rooms. higher ceilings. larger porches
extra stairways more ornate interior or
exterior. steam heating plant. novel
plumbing fixtures and other things
They are not essential. however, to the
family, which would not he affected II

up to a decade ago families lived and
lived we'll and happily without a lot Of
things which builders consider essential
to-day and put in their houses. A steam
heating plant Is luxury since II merely
eliminates a certain amount OF labor.
The coal stove is as effective from
heating standpoint. The family which
has n small amount OF money to invest
and wants to own its home will not mind
few extra minutes given to the carting
away OF the ashes or carrying up coal
from the cellar II these things will cut
several hundred dollars of the cost OF
the house"
Mr.. Bugg said ne knows the needs OF
home seekers because he once was a
home seeker with little capital and did
considerable searching before he found
a country place that would suit the size
OF his savings.

does not become a nightmare for years.
These Mahopac houses are of the

and bath, and are built on plots of

Between the home buyer and the
house which he would like to buy very
often stand nothing more than struc-
tural details which have piled up TIE
cost of the building to a point beyond
the reach OF his purse. II these details
were absolutely necessary except from
the. standpoint of comfort there would
be no reason for complaint. Fads and
fancies have developed many mechan-
ical devices and novel house arrange
ments which builders feel are essential
to the selling success OF the house.
Builders have no objection to following
the whims of the day. because they
mean more money for them.
"A builder attains his highest value"
said Leo Bugg. who Is one OF the most
successful home builders In the East,
''in the production Of homes attractively
designed. well built and within reach of
the purse OF the multitude rather than
the few. This has been my idea from
the start. and have tried in the many
years l have been in the building field
to produce homes which can be pur-
chased by the family OF small means
rather than the one OF great means. My
own experience has taught me that the
production of homes economically de-
signed and constructed from every
standpoint is far below normal. Thou

at time when New York had little to
offer them in the class OF housing to
which they had been accustomed. Apart

of private dwelling which most of them
wanted was not to be found within the
city.
Many such men have turned TO the
suburbs for their homes. some because
there were no other places for them. but
most of them because they came from
communities in which they had occupied
individual homes and preferred that
mode Of living. During the last few
