Maintenance Cost
Home Important
j The costs of maintenance of a
home should be given careful con
sideration before building.
In a general way such costs are
known to everyone.
Costs of insurance vary, depend
ing upon such factors as the near
ness of a residence to other build
ings and to a fire station hydrant
or the type of construction used,
or the kind of insurance carried
Taxes of municipalities vary,
and careful inquiry should always
be made as to the present and
prospective taxes which may af
neighborhood
n U , .. e,e a,e a ... s0 cos s ° f main
^ enance which may arise and
which are not so evident. For
example a parcel of land which
would ordinarily be considered ,
high enough, might prove to be
, too low in event of a succession of
* ieavy ' hooding rains.
I Careful inquiry should be made
’ nto the comparative total costs of
keeping different kinds of build
ing properly painted and repaired
0Ver ,hP Ji/e 0f the mort ® a * e -
There are many mistakes which
an owner can persuade his
* ec t to make in the false hope
i that they will prove economical,
Tr >’ to avoid as much as possible
the expenses incidental to recur
j be rent repairs and using renewal* good that can
avoided by mater
i a l s i n the first place.
Materials which cost the least
can prove to he the most ex pen
sh e in the long n*n.
Beautifying The
Home with Paint
Proper use of paint in beauti
fying a home is a science.
The principal problem that fac- i
es the home planner is the selec
tion of colors: What colors of paint |
to choose for what purposes, what,
color combinations are correct
and harmonious, what type of
rooms need what type of coloring.
The easiest approach to this t
problem is first to understand the
differences and attributes 0 C
j “warm” colors. “War m" colors in
j elude yellow, gold, orange, brown,
pink rose and red and their vary
j ng tints
“Cool'' colors include gray. blue,
green, violet and silver or alumi
num. !
1 In addition to these definitely'
warm or cool tones, there are sev- i
eral neutral tones which do not
fa ” into either classification. Neu
tral tones are those llke lvory '
cream, buff, putty and tan.
Warm colors usually look best
in rooms facing north, rf in rooms
with cast or north exposures. Cool
colors are recommended for rooms I
facjng south or rooms with west
I an d south exposures
Neutral tones are most success
] ful in rooms of uncertain expos-'
ure, where west light, for exam
j pie, conflicts with east light. How- :
ever, for such rooms, either warm
or coo 1 colors may be used if the
colors are sufficiently reduced in
i intensity. j
There are 4 few general rules
1 that prove valuable in the choice
of colo.’s for each room of a house. 1
Walls, ceilings and floor comprise)
(he main visible surfaces of a
room, its shell All furnishings
which go into the room must be
chosen with relation to this shell
In planning most rooms, re
i member that the darkest placo in
the room should be the floor, es-

produced from disease free pota
toes. Potatoes pass three inspec
tions before they are certified, in

ed with stem rot and black rot. 1
