While the list is scarcely as long as
usual, the falling off is to be attributed
| TO the expected midsummer dullness,
! and is not likely to last beyond the
vacation season. In view of the fact
! that large proportion of the population
! is now rusticating at the seashore or in
| the mountains, the weeks operations
, may be taken to indicate that Los An
| geles is growing steadily and health
| fully, and that practically every new
| house represents permanent increase
| III the population.
! According to the Daily Journal build
! ing matters are picking up. Monday 5
| tling of contracts for new buildings
| exceeded any days work in the last six
| months. Seven contracts We're filed
aggregatlng about $50, ,000-six DWELLING
/ and one business block. These con-
| tracts do not indicate the value of the
| buildings, but are for doing certain por-
| lions of the work. The entire cost OF
| the buildings represented by these con-
! tracts would exceed 500, 600, and only
! one business block included. This is a
! good showing for what is denomina ted
| as dull season, There We're also eight
| building permits issued at the CITY hal
| yesterday, which represented the CON
struction of just that many more build
ings. nearly all to cost less than one
| thousand dollars.
