EVENTUALLY ARE
MORE EXPENSIVE

Everyone knows the difference
between inexpensiveness that is ar
rived at by careful selection of
sound materials yet without eXtrav-
agance, and cheapnesS by which
low costs are materialized through
the use of inferior materials and
workmanship. When two houses,
one well built and one poorly built,
are viewed side by side new and
fresh with paint, there is little to
distinguish them superficially,
though research brings out many
details of inferiority in the cheap
house. Time brings them all out.
Here are some of the things that
will not be supplied at the cheap
price. also some of the things that
happen to its flimsy construction.
The building may not have
good foundation. The sand or gravel
used in mixing the concrete may
/ not be clean, not enough cement
will have been used, too much water
may be employed in the mix. the
footings, designed by guess and not
by science are thin and clio not
spread far enough nor are they ad-
iusted to changing weights in the
walls. Proper footlngS may not
be prepared for the posts or col
umns that support the superstruc-
ture. Concrete bases raised above
the level of the grade may not be
devised for the setting of wooden
posts.
Then what happens? The walls
will crack from uneven settlements,
moisture will come through the
walls. the base of wooden posts not
set above the grade level will rot,
plaster will crack floors will sag.
Again, the superstructure walls
may not be good. If they are oil
wood frame construction the braces
and bridging essential for sound
wooden walls will probably be omit
ted. Sheating will be put on cross
wise instead of diagonally. Two
nails will be used at the base of
studs where four should be used.
Inferior siding may be used, wood
with knots, thin, inaccurately nit
cred and nailed at the outside cor
ners, the nails not set below the
surface of the wood to receive put
W.
If the walls are of masonry. the
mortar may be thin and weak. Ad-
equate insulation may be omitted,
or not sealed tightly so as to be
really efficient. SheathhAg paper
