FEBRUARY REAL ESTATE.
An Increase Over the Same Month
Last Year.


1t has been frequently remarked
during the past month that the real
estate business was dull, and that
there was nothing going on in the way
of sales. The figures below, which
are matters of record, proclaim the
statements to have been false, or else
made by those who knew moth
ing OF the real state of the
market. Compared with February,
1887, the sales for last month show
an increase of 81, $3.50, ,90S. This is not
a small amount, by any means, and
it is larger than any one months sale
IN 1866. Not only was there an in
crease over February of 1887, but
there was an increase over January
OF this year, as the following will
