New Low Cost Log Homes Being Built
GAYLORD, MICK—A log cabin home of either full or half log
construction is now available at very low cost. Termite-proofed logs
are pre-cut toficcurate length and are anchored into heavy corner
posts so no ends are exposed, eliminating rotting. Window and door
design permit floor plans and exteriors to meet individual tastes. Pre
cutting reduces material costs so that these log homes are very mod
erate in price, according to the 0tsego Log Cabin Co., originator of
this new idea. A number of these homes are being built as suburban
residences as well as resort cabins.
One of the world‘s largest pri—
vate collections of butterflies may
be acquired by the Natural History
Museum in Stockholm. which has
asked the Government for a grant -
to purchase a vast collection gath
ered by Wilhelm Brandt, an Estim
ian naturalist. It contains about
40,000 numbers, principally Fin
nish and Persian butterflies, all in
first-class condition. Among them
are many species of great rarity.
