The average price per ton for pea coal in 1918 and 1919 was $8.15, price now being $12.60 or about 55% more.

The average price per ton for egg and stove coal was about $10.25. The present price is $14.85. The price is expected to advance further still in both

cases.

d. The average for gas in the past few years was $225 and the rate has increased 87 1/2% for the coming year.

e. Electricity charges have ranged from $1,460 to $1,900 annually. The above estimate is figured at the average charge plus 10% for increased charges. f. Present monthly payroll is given in Schedule IV.

g. Thoroughly renovating a ten room apartment now costs $1,038 or somewhat in excess of $100 per room.

There are a total of 226 rooms in the building and to renovate all the apartments would cost approximately $22,500. This must be done on the average every three years, or at a cost of $7,500 per year. Annual average of about $2,500 is spent on halls, boilers, pumps, roof, etc.

During the five years from 1913 to 1917, inclusive, the annual expenditure for repairs and miscellaneous items was $7,632 and the average cost of such items has increased between fifty and seventy-five per cent since 1917.

No allowance has been made in the above estimate for expenses and attorneys, charges in connection with litigation, which is a necessary concomitant of existing legislation, and which, in the aggregate may amount to a very substantial sum; nor has allowance been made for corporate taxes, which, while comparatively slight in the past will undoubtedly become substantial in the near future.

The following are forms of stipulation between landlord and tenant under which amount of rent conceded to be due by a tenant may be received by a landlord without prejudice to his rights to bring action for the balance of rent the landlord claims to be due him; also for use where a tenant holds over, under which the landlord may receive such sum as the holdover may be disposed to pay on account of any sum which hereafter may be adjudged to be due the owner because of the holding over of the occupant after his tenancy has terminated.

Both these forms were prepared by the Joint Real Estate Law Committee of the Real Estate Board.
