GAS NGE is AID

Despite the fact that competent
household help is difficult to engage
the American housewife now has
more leisure time than ever before
because the machine age has got
around to the kitchen.
Many things which are available
to make the housewives burden
lighter will not be found in the DEM
onstration Home. Enough are there,
however, to make the business Of
keeping house an easier proposition
than it possibly could have been a
generation ago.
Among the many appliances which
tighten the housewives burden are
those for the use of gas. In the
model home will be found Reliable
full enameled gas range with a
Lorain oven heat regulator, common
ly known as red wheel. A simple
turn of the red wheel permits time
and temperature cooking with 20
different ranges of temperature.
making it the most completely con-
trolled cooking appliance in general
use.
Hot Water Available
In the basement Hoffman master
storage system has been installed to
provide hot water. 1t is equipped
with a device for controlling the
temperature which permits range
of heat from 100 to $50 degrees.
The higher temperature makes it
possible to scald clothes on wash
day.
A radiant-fire gas heater is in
stalled in the fireplace in the living
room. 1t takes the place of coal
OF wood fire and provides heat at the
touch of a match. 1t also is subject
to complete control.
Gas equipment which will be
shown with the house but which is
not part Of it's regular equipment
includes Snow White laundry
Grier which makes it possible to
wash and iron clothes within few
hours, regardless of the weather.
The drier makes it possible to dry
the clothes in an hour.
A Simplex Gas mangle also will be
shown. 1t makes it possible to do
the ironing in one fifth of the time
which ordinarily is required.
Gas Furnace Shown
A gas furnace will be shown at
the Demonstration Home by the
French & WEIGH Hardware company
which installed the coal burning fur
mace which will be used to heat the
house. The gas furnace, of which
many are expected to be sold when
natural gas becomes available here,
is much smaller than the coal fur
mace. With thermostatic control it
is the last word in homc-heatinE
efficiency. All the householder will
have to do is set the thermostat and
light the furnace in the fall. He can
forget it for the rest Of the winter.
The house stays always at the same
temperature and he has no coal to
shovel or ashes to haul away.
Sanitation of the home is i'm
proved by the use Of gas inciner-
ator. 1t burns the garbage and other
refuse without smoke OF odor and
adds to convenience as well as to
cleanliness.
Persons interested in the further
use of gas may have gas refriger-
ator which freezes by heat"
The Montana Dakota Power COM
pany. which supplies gas to Bis
marck, will have a representative at
The house throughout the demon
stration week to explain the uses Of
various appliances and answer ques-
tions about them.

CONTRACTORS
NOW BUILDING
DURING WINTER
Cold Weather No Longer Is
Bar to Construction; Cost
Is Same as in Summer
(By The BUILDING EditOr)


Since the Demonstration Home
project was launched a number of
queries have come to the building
editor as to the best time to build.
The answer to this, and it isn't
meant to be curt, is whenever the
prospective owner gets ready, re-
CARELESS of whether it is summer or
winter. The old idea that building
could be done to advantage only dur
ing the warm months has long since
gone into the discard.
In the larger cities winter has not
been permitted to Interfere with
building for years and the custom
of building through the winter is
common here. Contractor j. C.
Beattie. who built the Demonstration
Home, has not been held up because
of bad weather in more than two
years. Other contractors also make
it a practice to work through the
winter months.
In most cases the basement of the
house is dug before cold weather
sets in, since excavating is difficult
when the ground is frozen. The
concrete may be poured in freezing
weather, if necessary, by heating
the water and taking other precau-
lions. although this is not desirable.
With the basement in, however, the
framework may be erected anytime
and building can proceed, salaman-
ders or other heating appliances
being used to keep the house from
freezing.
The cost Of building in winter is
about the same as building in sum-
mer. since many contractors will take
contracts little more cheaply then
than when the weather is good and
work is more plentiful. Offsettipg
this, however. is the cost of coal used
In heating the building while under
construction.
The quality of the work is fully
as good when done in winter as when
done in summer. The plaster dries
more evenly and there are other
contractors say. which |
make up for the inconvenience which |
cold weather causes.
