LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.


real estate agents of this city states that
never before in his experience has there been
such demand for houses for residence pur.
poses in Sacramento. The supply is wholly
inadequate to the demand. The class O;
houses desired is that of the medium-com.
Portable structures of from six to eight rooms
at rentals from S25 to $50 per month. Being
asked whence the source of the demand, be
said that it came mainly from new people
moving into the city from the north part of
the county, from other counties, ana some
from the mountains. Many of these came
here because of educational advantages for
their children, some are farmers who still re-
tain tneir farms but prefer to bring their
families to reside in the city. Some
are citizens returning to their old home,
be thought that his firm could name fully
thirty families from abroad to whom houses
had been rented since the middle of Septem-
Der, and probably other agents could mske
similar reports. He believes that by Noyem-
Der LIST II viii be quite impossible here to pro-
cure a house on rental of any particular de-
STABILITY. In short, as he puts it, 1.-The
town is about full" A good word may BE-
added Tor Sacramento county, as the testi-
mony is that the demand for farms in the W.
land region of this county is greater than
known heretofore. and prices have materially
stitfeaed under this influence. Taesa facts
led to inquiry concerning the state of trade
OF the city, and it developed rhat it is good.
Leading retail establishments report steady,
good and growing trade, and the wholesale
shipments are large, as manifested By the re-
turns of thu freight agents.
