division of foreign seed and plant
introduction. Their inspection
caused much interest and excite
ment in the suburb and crowd
trailed the judges to learn their
reaction to different planting
schemes.
Horticulturists of the Agriculture
Department who visited Battery
Park found one objection, which
they feel may assist other COM
munities considering the garden
club idea. They opposed the use
of the common cedar in lawn dec
grafton. In some instances, 1t was
sai1, the cedar works out we'll,
but there is always a tendency in
lawn decoration to utilize it too
freely, thereby marring the effect
of the more attractive evergreens.
Some of the Battery Park homes
had good plants, nice evergreens
and Towering shrubs, which under
| the expert eye of the horticulture
lists would have shown off better
without a mixture of cedars. Con.
siderable attention was attracted
to the planting of roses in the
parkways between the sidewalks
and streets.
This, the experts pointed out, is
a novelty and its value remains
to be seen. If kept up, it un-
doubtedly will be one of the attrac-
tive sights in the residential Sec
tions of the city.

bearing 6 per cent interest and
with a brokerage charge of only
4 per cent a year and he is
enabled to go ahead and build
$4,000 home where he may have
only a clear lot and enough cash
to pay one-fourth down on his
material, On the other hand, If he
wanted to go out to buy a new
home already built that was equal
in value to his $4,000 home, he
would naturally have to pay about
$12,500, as it is impossible for a
speculative builder to build homes
of this character and sell on pay
ments that run over a period of
years, unless they do make profit
of from Is to 20 per cent. The
agents commission alone just for
selling a house runs per cent.
which would be $500 on a $4,000
home. Now, if the man who wants
to build his own home can get
sufficient financial help in a whole
some way, he can not only build
a home of his ideal, but he can
avoid paying all these excess COM
missions and profits"

FINANCE PLAN
PROVES VERY
POPULAR
Guy S. ZepP, Local Manager
for the Lewis Manufacture
ing Co., Explains Idea

Z The Lewis Manufacturing Com
pany reports that the new plan
that has just been offered by this
company Of financing their homes
on second trust monthly payment
has proven to be the most popular
thing that has as yet been attempt
ed by any housing organization.
Guy S.. Zepp, local manager for
the Lewis Company says:
Heretofore. a man who had only
q small amount of cash was IN such
position that made it practically i'm
possible for him to buy a lot and
build his own home. Unless he had
enough money to represent about
40 per cent of the entire undertak-
ing, it was practically impossible
for him to get his operation fl
nanced, but with the new plan ar
ranged by the Lewis Manufacturing
Company it is possible for a man
to finance IS per cent of the entire
cost Of his house and let. BY being
able to put on a straight 3-year
first mortgage loan and to pay the
Lewis Manufacturing Company Is
per cent Of their material in month
ly payments, covering a period of
three years, you can see that it is
easily possible for him to build his
own home almost as advantageousIy
as he can go out and purchase a
home already built on a small cash
payment, with the advantage that
IN building his own home, he is
able to build according to his own
IDEAS, (which, after all, l believe ia
tne greatest thrill that anyone gets
The Washington times., 1925-05-09

out of life) and he also saves the
necessarily large profit that has to
be charged by speculative builders
in order to cover their overhead and
the cost of carrying monthly pay
ment notes for indefinite periods.
The following are some compare
tive figures of the manner in which
most financing by brokers is work
ed out. If a man owns a lot worth
81 900 and has it paid for, and
wants to build house on it cost
ing $4,000, making total cost of
SO 900 for house and lot, he can
generally borrow from local build
ing institutions about so per cent
of this amount, or $4,000. That
means that he still owes $4,000. On
a house of this character, the Lewis
material which would probably run
around $4,000 to $4,000, with the
Lewis Company's financial plan, all
he would need would be one-fourth
of the amount of the cost of the
Lewis Company's material and the
other three -fourths he can give
monthly notes covering a period OF
three years,~,or in other woEds,
thirty-six notes Of equal amount
