.during th last fix wn-kn five husinss
asUMlshnients hav moved thrlr former
itirtr to new nnss. and ths shaketip ha"
tsnded to la,vn Sixteenth street with an
added strength a a retail district. Real
estate mn nenrAlly concede that Plx
teenth street aradually la hernmlna; the real
mart of t i city's retail w orld, w ithin the
tretrh fr m C'umlnR fl'ft to I-eaven-wnrth
ftreer.
Th larger factor In causing the general
exodus from the dlstrlrt further went has
been the Wcodmcii of the World project
which wl'l Involve, the vacation of the
properly at Fourteenth and Farnam streets.
It Is believed though, that there Is a na
tural tendency at hand toward a slow re
moval of many stores from the downtown
district to' sixteenth street.
Milton Rogers A Sons' store was one o
the biggest corners Involved In the change,
taking a n w home at Sixteenth and Har
nev streets.
The removal of the l'nlon Outfitting com
pany, combined with the People s Outfitting
company, into their new quarters at Six
teenth and Jackson streets, was another
very important change.
f lark Company's Hemoial.
Probably the most noteworthy business
removal of all la that of the Walter O.
Clark company's retail department from
Fourteenth and Harney streets to store
room In tha City National Flank building
on Sixteenth street. The deal Involving the
nsw quarters by the Clark company was
closed last week. With this lease the City
National Br.nk building filled lis lat va
rant storeroom. It was announced that the
new tenants would conduct exclusively Its
retail sporting goods business, while the
warehouse of h. company would be main
tained In tin old quarters.
The Hock Island ticket office and the
Albert I'ahn men's furnishing stoic ar
ranged to exchange locations, each moving
across the street Into the other's former
quarters at Fourteenth and Farnam streets.
The Morltz Mnnhelt establishment has re
moved from 1411 Farnam street to Sixteenth
and Harney afreets.
For a short time It was thought in real
estate, circles that a move would be made
by aevcral firms to have Iiouglas street
extended from Forty-ninth street to Fifti
eth street or possibly beyond, hut from
statement made last week by the Inter
ested parties, the project ia not likely to
be undertaken. The proposed extension of
the street would necessitate the removal
of the home of H. I). Reed, which stands
quarely on Forty-ninth street facing Doug
laa street.
Iians Heine Withheld.
Food for considerable thought haa come
to the notice of local realty men in the
attitude of non-resident life Insurance com
panies to reject an enormous percentage
of real estate loan business this winter. It
Is generally announced that the'companles
have declined to Increase the amount set
aside for such loans In this state. The
strongest demand ever known for loans
on reliable property now la being felt, and
It la thought that tho companies could ac
commodate ftv times aa much business
they are doing, were It not for the con
servative attitude on their part,
An Ohio company has loaned Jl.rt00.000 on
agricultural land In Nebraska during the
space of sixty daya. This was the total
appropriation set aside for such business
In this state up to March, and It was en
tirely negotiated by December L A call
from the agents In Nebraska for the is
suance of iJSO.ooO more waa Issued, but It
wa turned down. It la thought possible
the company will comply with the pressing
demanda before February'.
Enormous Demand Made,
'TV have our choice of the very bet
farm lands." said the agent, "but th de
mand seem to be equally strong In all
other parts of the country, and the com
panies are ' able only to accommodate a
very small fraction of tho desirable busi
ness offered them. The enormous pressure
thl year may be Judged from the fact
that December 1 ia ordinarily the time
when we begin to make loans, whereas
we have already completed $1,000,000 of
Investments, and are pi actu ally out of the
fields for further loans."
Notwithstanding the extraordinary de
mands for funds on Nebraska farm prop
erty. It Is reported that the agricultural
population seems to be well supplied with
money. An instnnce showing thlB condition

"Th Art. Science and Sentiment of
Homebuilding."
30 chapters, 300 Illustrations and a
thousand facts on the planning and
designing of every kind of home. It
covers a wide range of subjects. In

suburban and city homes, letting

.NF. would hardly think that so
simple and Innocent appearing
structure as that modern, cozy
little home known as the bung
alow would present many prob
lemh to one skilled In the alt
of planning. Kuskln says, that "simplicity
Is the terminal point of all progress." and
It Is this very terminal point, complete
simplicity, which Is essential to appropri
ate and proper appearance In the bungalow
that Is hard to get and still fill exacting
owners' requirements.
The first problem for a homebullfler to
solve Is whether or not he can really af
ford a bungalow. These little homes,
though simple, are sometimes ciuite ex
pensive to build. Take for example the
average six-room house, ' ono and one-halt
and two stories In height. Such a house
can be built as small as 24x28 feet In slse,
t ' ..I ..JR.
h."'- : '. ' f.-v?. . ,
the second floor, alongside of th usual
first story rooms, would practically double
the first floor area of the house, which
would mean twice as much roof to cover
It, twice as much excavation for the base
ment and W per cent more basement wall
as well ss additional supports in the base
ment In the added part. The rooms In
themselves cost practically the samo as
when placed In a two-story house and while
there Is a saving In the height of the
chimney, and ometlmes a saving In the
stairway when entirely omitted (which Is
seldom the case). It does not take much of
a mathematician to figure out that a six
room bungalow would cost more than a
story and one-half or full atory six-room
cottage. These facts have resulted In a
It can be easily seen, that placing all of I new style of cottage known as the two
the bedrooms, bathroom, closets, etc., on I story bungalow.
1910 Building in Leading Cities
Probably the most complete insight Into
the magnitude of building operations in
this country has Just been complied from
official reports from seventy-three cities
for 1110 to Construction News. It shows
that permits were taken out In these cities
for the construction of 210.011 buildings, In
volving a total estimated coat of t41.831.5u2
In 1310, against 212,210 buildings, involving
an aggregate investment of fH3.321,420 for
1909, an Increase for the year just closed
of 3.S01 in the number of permits and a de
crease of J41.389.SriS int cost, or 5 per cent.
There were gains In thirty-four cities and
decreases In thirty-nine. The figures In

Tropcrly speaking, the original bungalow
Is but one tstory high, with a low roof, so
low that there Is only a small attic space
under it. A two-story bungalow Is not
unlike what we have heretofore called a
story and one-half cottage, but the prin
cipal difference being that a low spreading
effect Is emphasized, giving It a bunga
low appearance, but at the same time
providing considerable space on the sec
ond floor for bedrooms. Dormers and
low tables arc used to the best advantage
In obtaining light and air and Increasing
the elze of the bedrooms.
I'slng a number of the attributes of
a regular bungalow, iiuch as wide, brown
stained siding, or shingles laid In rustic
fashion, with show rafters under the eaves.
a broad porch of simple design, ' a large
living room, bay windows, and fireplace,
a decided bungalow appearance can be
given to what would otherwise pass for
a story and one-half cottage. A home de
signed In tills fashion, while lacking the
unquestioned convenience of a hotiNe all
planned on one floor, can be built attrac
tive, comfortable and Is a less expense
than a regular bungalow planned wltn
the same number of rooms.
A low roof need not necesssrlly mean
hot rooms In summer on the second floor.
With proper planning, the rooms call be
made full height without any ceiling cut
offs, and In addition to tills, if they are
well ventilated. It ha not been noticed
that they are any warmer In summer, or
colder In winter, than the rooms In a
straight, two-story house. The lower part
of the ruof Is over the closet, which comes
In each corner In all bungalows of thl
styl. and the plastered ceiling makes a
small attic above each room, practical!
the same as found in a one-story bungalow.
The one-story bungalow to work well,
and be In every way practical, should only
be built in a suburban location, on a double
lot preferably a corner lot, so that the
broad side of the building ran be placed
toward the front, the living rooms oc
cupying the moHt desirable end, the sleep
ing rooms and bathroom In the other end.
When a bungalow is placed on a single
lot, between two two-story buildings, with
the narrow end of the building toward the
front. It has an Insignificant look. The
worst part of sucli an arrangement Is the
necessity of placing all the bed chamber
at the rear of the house, back among the
neighbor's ash cans. The length of such
a bungalow necesFartly brings the rear of
the house far behind the rear of neigh
boring two-story houses. While It is some
time argued that this fact brings the
chambers back where there Is more light
and air, the air In this location, for obvious
reasons, is not always conducive 'o health.
Where a few hundred dollar" ir-.,. or
less In the conMruclion of a i'.oms v Mr
a vital matter, wnen ine lot is or s:nv. -i t
size to pian 11 properly, ana w ne:i '.!,
location la appropriate for a one-f.'nri
bungalow, a bungalow is an ideal hfnn. j
hut when these conditions cannot be .-
bined when building It is far rvn - 10 '
build a home suited to oi.fe's iot and fn r.f-.
and then as a enmnrorwr vno to .1
such bungalow features as may prove
appropriate and attractive.
