GENERAL


     The consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto listed in the
Index on page 2 of this report have been prepared using generally accepted
accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with 1994.  The results of
operations for the interim period presented are not necessarily indicative of
results to be expected for the year.  The information included in this report
has not been examined prior to filing by an independent public accountant, and
is therefore, subject to any adjustments which may result from the year-end
examination of the Company's financial statements.  The information furnished
herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments)
which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of
the results for the interim periods.

                    NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SHORT TERM INVESTMENTS:

  Short term investments consist primarily of certificates of deposits with
original maturities greater than 90 days.


INVENTORIES:

  Inventories, consisting primarily of raw materials, are stated at the lower of
cost or market, with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis.


CONTINGENT LIABILITIES:

Repurchase Obligations

  The Company is contingently liable under terms of repurchase agreements with
various financial institutions which provide for the repurchase of its homes
sold to dealers under floor plan financing arrangements upon dealer default.
The Company's exposure to loss under such agreements is reduced by the resale of
the repurchased home.  The Company believes any losses incurred under
outstanding repurchase agreements in excess of the accruals established as of
September 30, 1995 will not have a significant impact on the financial condition
of the Company.

Other Contingencies

  Letters of Credit totaling $4,000,000 have been issued to the Company's
insurance carriers who have underwritten the Company's insurance programs.


REVENUE RECOGNITION:

  The Company recognizes revenue when the product is shipped to independent
dealers.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS


  Cash, cash equivalents and short term investments as of September 30, 1995 and
December 31, 1994 were $23,406,000 and $27,544,000, respectively.  Working
capital as of September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994 was $31,099,000 and
$35,004,000, respectively.  The decrease of these items has been caused by
accounts receivable and inventory increases as the Company's operations expand
over the normal year end base, and by the funding of the Company's facility
expansions at its Wisconsin and Indiana production sites.  Also during the nine
months ended September 30, 1995 at a cost of $976,000, the Company repurchased a
total of 108,745 shares of common stock under the program initiated in 1994 to
acquire up to 300,000 shares of its common stock.
  Net sales for the third quarter of 1995 were $41,675,000, an increase of
$9,655,000 from the same quarter of 1994.  This increase results from higher
sales at the Company's reopened Kansas plant, initial sales from the newly
opened Alabama plant and increased prices implemented to offset increased costs
due to mandated regulations covering energy performance and wind stability
specifications.  Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 was
$2,011,000 which was a $851,000 increase from the same quarter 1994.
  As sales backlogs in the mobile home industry are traditionally short and as
dealer inventories do not normally fluctuate

substantially, the orders that the Company receives are indicative of the day-
to-day retail sales activity of its products.  Any changes affecting the desire
or ability of retail customers to purchase, such as cost, availability of credit
and unemployment, have an immediate effect on the Company's operations.
