lCTUylS' REPORTS SHOW UP THE
MCAPAClTY OF Old MANAGEMENT
OF HOME BUILDING ASSOCIATION
Some House. Built Before
Any Orders Given And
Then Sold At Estimated
Prices; Now Buyers Re-
fuse To Pay Greatly In
creased Cost; Fifty Pur-
chasers Tell Troubles To
New Board.

Bismarck, n. D.. Jan. 12.-Persons
Tor whom houses were built by the |
State Homebuilders' association are
standing pat in their refusal to pay
the cost of the houses as given by the |
former administration. which was 81 !
per cent above the estimated cost.
Following instructions from the In
dustria! Commission to take up the i
matter with each person for whom Il |;
house was built. the former and pres
ent manager of the association got in
touch with more than so persons for !
whom houses were built All refused !
to abide by the final figures of the as
sociation.
The new administration is gathering
all information and figures possible
for the purpose Of submitting a test
case to the courts in which a number !
Of questions which will determine the
final method of settlement will be an
swered. Several persons. Manager
Diehl has been informed. have re-
tanned attorneys to contest any effort
of the state to collect the full reported
cost of the houses.
Selling Lumber.
Manager Diehl also is engaged in
disposing of the lumber in yards at
Bismarck. Fargo and Mandan. A
great quantity of material is on hand
y
out Of doors. Theft has reduced the
amount of material somewhat. Renta
charges for storage are eating up"
the value Of the lumber. Mr.. Diehi
said. One vacant lot on which lum
Der is stored was rented by the asso-
citation at SIS per month.
Letters received from persons for
whom houses were built reveal that
many houses were started by the
Homebuilder1 association before 1uy-
ers had been obtained for the houses.
They we're sold" during process of
construction or at completion. The
explanation for building a number of
houses before buyers had been OBJ
tained was. according to one letter
! that the Homebuilders' association de-
sired to get the program under WY.
Blakeu,oro and Prasr Blamed.
The letters mention the names of
former. manager J. 3. BlaAemore and
/, William Prater. formerly employed in
the association. more frequently thar
Superintendent Baker. upon whom
| league officials put most of the blame
| for the condition in the Homebui1ders
| association. Some of the letters re-
veal that persons for whom houses
! were built are financially unable To
carry the load under the final coH.
Unreasonable Inoeases.
A Bismarck man wrote: when
! agreement was made with the Home
! builders association to build an a1idi-
| tion to my house it was with the un
derstanding that it was not to exceed
! $4,000. including a mortgage Of $3.50
against the property which the Home
builders association would take over.
E, leaving an amount of 81 .450 for which
+: the new addition was to be built. On
these figures l. saw it was possibie for
a. man in my position to nay monthly
! installments for 20 years until paid.
However. l am now informed that in
stead Of being S1.45o. the bill is 81

NEED NOT FEAR

If live life that is clean and square,
And l love my fellow-man.
And lend him hand to help him bear
His burden whenever | can,
need not fear what the future holds,
Nor what the reward will be;
For the mighty love that all enfolds
Will most surely care for me.
If | speak good word of cheer to one
Whose sorrows have borne him down,
And give him a new hope to journey
on,
And change to a smile his frown,
shall not dread when the shadows
fall,
And the end of life draws near;
For that wondrous love that shelters
all
VIII drive away my fear.
For my life is measured by what l
mete,
And | earn my own reward
So the love I give makes my heart
complete,
And through it | gain the reward;
For whether | dwell in house by the
road
Or far from the haunts of men,
If only my love makes bright the
abode,
No fear shall enter it then.

MANUFACTURERS NOW USING
APPLES TO THE LAST SEED

The thoroughness with which the
apple is now worked over and utilized
by some manufacturers makes it com.
parable with the packing-house pig
that leaves only a futile squeal The
apple is not transformed into such a
variety of products as the pig. but all
are useful, and when the last OF the
series has been made hardly a smell
is left
In many of the apple.using factories
the apples are first pressed to pro-
duce cider, which may be sold as such
or may be manufactured into vinegar
After thorough pressing the pomace is
treated with hot water to remove the
pectin, which. after publication, is
sold in either liquid or solid form to
manufacturers of jellies and similar
products and to housewives. The
much-wasted and squeezed residue is
dried. ground, and ssld as cattle feed.
