evidenced the correctness of their
opinion.
There is as yet no trace Of the muir

THIRTEEN WANT TWO HOUSES
That Number of Families After Two
Dwellings.

Time and again the Times Recorder
hiss urged the necessity for more small
dwelling houses in Americus-h homes
that would rent for S12 to $25 per
month according to size and location.
Evidence of the need of more houses
was furnished Yesterday. A cottage
on Jackson street. to be vacated in a
day or two, was especially in demand.
It rents for $50 per month, and five
families want it, Another dwelling on
Furlov street is soon to be vacated,
and the owner of the property told the
Times-Recorder yesterday that al
ready he had eight applications for it at
q good rental. The people are here
plenty Of new corners, but there is no
accommodation for them in the way of
dwelling houses. A town will grow
only as property.owners build it.
Americas is growing, but half hun
dred more houses are needed.
