JUNE BUILDING
GREATEST IN
HISTORY
Construction TotaIing Halt a
Billion Dollars in Value
Is Under Way

Construction of buildings totaling
half billion dollars in value was
under way in June, with the result
that all previous records for a
single months activities have been
smashed, according to compilations
made by the Associated General
Contractors of America In estao-
fishing a new record, construction
activities mounted above the high
figure set in May, when all pre-
vious marks were topped.
The volume of building In June,
as indicated by shipments of con-
struction materials was more than
twice as great as in 1918. The com.
bined volume Of construction actiV-
itv for the first six months OF 1925
exceeds the corresponding figure for
1924 by 10 per cent.
The record in June was set despite
a scattering of comparatively inact'
i've spots throughout the country
A study Of the situation leads ex-
perts to the conclusion that a great
portion Of the notwithstanding
activity is due to construction OF
residences.
The average of construction costs
rose slightly during June. due
principally to wage increases in
several sections. This is not regard
ed, however, as Indicative Of any
great forthcoming change in costs.
The volume of building contracts
awarded during May shows a de-
crease of IA per cent from the April
figure, though awards made during
the first five months of 1925 exceed
the corresponding figure for 1924
by 13 per cent. The combined vol
ume of building permits issued dur.
ing the first five months Of 1925
was about equal to that of the
sauna neriod in 1924.

who have visited the beautiful
new section of Herald Harbor

Many club members who pur-
chased property in the original

quired lots in the new section and
others, more recently attracted to
the popular new summer colony
on the Severn, declare the new
section more desirable than the
old.
Many are making plans for
the erection of fine new homes

s9yee9 y9oo in BgIIetin Figures

Pine county automobile and
truck owners are spending three
times a. much for tires, FIVE
times az much for gas and oil, and
some twenty-five times a. much
IN car running expenses all told,
a. they are paying toward i'm
provenent Of state highways car
rying four out Of FIVE vehicles on
the roads. They will pay out
this year over 81 10000 for auto
mobile expense. and about S52,-
800 in motor vehicle taxes for
better highways TO cut car run
ming costs.
Figures in a highway bulletin
this week place the Minnesota
expenditure on $4,000 motor We
hicIes for 1925 at $225. 600, 600
and that Of the United States on
.l7.OO,OOo cars at $4,000 :
600. The state total is based on
items as follows: Insurance and
miscellaneous expenses, $1,000
900; new cars and trucks, $40, coo, :
600; tires, $25OO0.OOO; gasoline
and oil, $45,O0O.OO0, and deprecia-
ton and repairs, s13l .0OO, 600.
The average car expense is put
at less than $40 a year. a rate
of 81 cents a mile total cost at
5000 miles a year or z cents at
5000 miles a year, which are gen.
orally accepted figures. The fore
going estimates for this county
are based on the state totals.
Commenting on the compare
tive amounts being spent for aut-
omobiIes and for roads on which
70 run them, the bulletin sug-
gests that a few dollars reduc-
ton in the auto tax looks big to
the average car owner because
he forgets at the time that every
cent Of auto tax goes into better
roads which in turn reduce his
car running cost. Realization that
the automobile bill in the state
is S225, 10000 a year-including
A5,O0O.0O0 for gas and oil and
