In order for Langdon's growth of late
years to properly continue more houses
are needed, places for people to live who
have no houses of their own. 1t is safe
to say that to-day if there were fifty
houses to be rented from $40 to SIS per
month not a single one Of them would be
vacant. There is small fortune in it for
the investor of capital, and the increase
in the oi,y's population would in dozen
different ways bring returns to the people
Of Langdon. Not day passes but what
inquiries have made at this office for
houses to rent. Now is the right time
for the investor 10 look the matter up. if
he is wanting to make q return of IL to
20 per cent year on his money. Land
is increasing in value in the county right
along; has gone up in fact nearly 200 per
cent the past five years. City real estate
has kept pace with it; residence property
may appear high, but twill be found
that the investment is easier made now
than it will be during the coming year.
City property is bound to 60 up. There
fore the builder of dwellings for rental
can i'll afford to put off longer If oontem-
plating the investment.
