Excerpt from Low-Cost Cottage Construction in America, Vol. 7: A Study on the Housing Collection in the Harvard Social Museum In building Indian Hill, the industrial village of the Norton Company, Worcester, Mass., it was found that a type of house which in 1915 cost to build had in 1916 risen in cost to But a house closely comparable to this type quoted at in Massachusetts in 1916, was contracted for in 1917 for only in Erwin, Tennessee. So that the 1916 Massachusetts house cost 19 per cent more to build than the same style of house in that same state in the previous year, and 50 per cent more than a similar house in a different locality in the following year.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
