Show NUMEROUS SALES ARE REPORTEDFOR WEEK Weather Has Not Been Advantageous, Ad-vantageous, but Business . Has Been Very Good. Although the weather has for the past two weeks been anything but what might be termed real estato ' weather, Burt & Carlquist report that both the sales and the inquiries during that period havo boen greater than for any such length of timo this season. According to John C. Roynolds, who is in charge of suburban sales, soveral good donls havo been consummated during the last ton days and future prospects look exceedingly bright, judging judg-ing by tho great numbers or prospective prospec-tive purchasers who have expressed r, themselves as being desirous of making ' investments for speculative purposes. Ab the firm has secured the agency - for a tract of land comprising forty acres located at Pleasant Grove near Garfield, Burt & Carlquist will imma- diatoly open up the tract as a subdivi- r-sion, r-sion, cutting it into" lots largo enough for building jpurposos. After platting and subdividing, the newly acquired tract will be supplied with cemont walks and properly parked. As a great many persons have expressed their desire de-sire 'to purchase lots in that section of , tho city, it is reasonably Bure that a . disposition will bo made of tho entire tract at an early date. Mr. arlquist, : who has been handling farming tracts iu tho northern part of tho state, says that salea and conditions genorally throughout that part of the country' ...'.? are decidedly gratifying, as the crops ' speak for themselves, being generally ; thrifty in spite of tho late spring. iji 1 . ,' |
