ASHTON ON REAL ESTATE.

The bad weather has seriously inter.
fered with the real estate market.
This Is particularly the case with prop
erty lying outside the heart OF the
city 1t has been practically useless
to offer suburban property to lnqulring
customers, With the advent OF spring
the prospects for the real estate dealer
are brighter To my mind, the growth
OF Salt Lake City from now on win be
substantial. our LOCAL capitalists are
spending their means for Salt Lakes
development and outside investors are
being convinced that this section prom
ises good returns on money they have
TO invest. Naturally, Salt Lake Is
well located and the many resources OF
our state will add materially to her
prosperity. Present Indications point
to greater activity IN Salt Lake City
than Is 10 be found In the cities OF
surrounding states. During 1904, ex-
pect n great deal Of Improvement In the
way OF cottages and residences, and a
fair amount Of larger work.
