'Yardstick' Is Applied
On BUILDING Of Home

Here Is a yardstick you can use to
determine whether now is the right
time to build that long delayed new
home. 1t provides check as to how
much of your dollar should go into
materials and how much into the
pockets of the artisans who erect
your dream castle.
Providing you live in an average
community and are content to build
an average home costing about
5000, w. S. Lowndes, director of
the school of architecture of Inter-
national Correspondence Schools, es-
Inmates your materials bill will add
up to $500. To the contractor, car
penters, plasterers, electricians,
plumbers and painters you should
pay $1,700. In short, you or your
banker are being economical if you
pay twice as much for stone, wood
and metal as for plans, supervision
and skill of saving, plastering, SOL
dering and fitting. All of which is
fair enough because it totals S per
cent less than the peak of August
two years ago.
II you live in any Of q hundred
cities, you are even more fortunate,
Tor there the labor cost is below this
national average of one-third of the
total cost. In fact, labor in certain

conditioning unit. Or, if the home
owner already has a satisfactory
oil-burning furnace, an air condi-
toner designed for this purpose can
be added as an accessory.
Automatic Gas Furnaces.
For sections fayoring gas, the
manufacturers have introduced
automatic gas-burning furnaces
which, by themselves, furnish the
for installation with winter air-con-
conditioning.
For coal-minded communities
automatic stokers have been de-
veloped for both anthracite and
bituminous coal-especially designed
for installation with winter air con-
ditioning systems.
All the new winter air-condition-
Ing equipment is built so that
auxiliaries for complete summer air
conditioning-to furnish cooling de-
humidifying, cleaning and circulat-
ing of the air-may be added later
at a minimum of expense.

Efficient Heaters
Air Condition
low-Cost Homes
Aim Of Engineers
Is to Take Care of
$5,000-CIoss Houses

To extend the use of true winter
air conditioning to low-cost homes
in all parts of the country, manu-
facturers of basic ir-conditioning
units this year nave introduced
highly efficient oil burners, gas fur
naces and coal stokers, states w. B.
Henderson, executive vice president
of the ACKNOWLEDGING Manufac-
turers' Association.
Thus the home owner may enjoy
the full benefits of real winter air
conditioning. e., heating, humidi-
tying, cleaning and circulating Of
the air-by installing matched heat
ing and air conditioning units for
use with any one Of the popular
fuels.
The aim of the designing engi-
neers was to make full winter air
conditioning economically feasible
for homes in the 5000 price class
and at the same time to meet any
fuel requirement, whether dictated
by personal preference or local costs.
Into all Of the new equipment has
gone the full scientific knowledge
gained by these same engineers in
designing summer air-conditioning
systems for theaters, department
stores. restaurants, hotels and rail-
road cars.
Includes Humidification.
True winter air conditioning, as
distinguished from ordinary heat
ing, includes humidification by the
addition of enough moisture into the
air to avoid the unhealthful effects
of excessive dryness, cleaning the
air by passing it through filters, and
forced circulation of the air uni
formly throughout the house, with
out drafts or the customary cold
spots.
For communities where oil is the
preferred fuel, there is now avail
able an oil-burning furnace which
operates in conjunction with an air.

cities drops to as low as a fourth of
the cost of the home. However,
there are cities where. because Of
varying labor conditions, the cost of
plans and labor runs up on the
budget to half the cost of the home.
Since the cost Of materials,
whether hardwood flooring, roofing,
or lumber varies less than 10 per
cent for any locality between Maine
and California, it is evident that the
biggest variable in building today is
labor, which has risen IL per cent for
nome construction in the last three
years. In the same period the cost
OF materials, after rising 10 per cent,
has now tapered off to 3 per cent
over three years.
