Ac tho witness called on the Vaiua-
,;ons he made observations in regard
to the different parcels, as 10 thelf
condition and adaptibility as earning
units. He said that he considered 'he
frcshet problem very serious one To
occunants Of stores on the east side OF
Water street and thought that the
probability of such things happening
every spring rendered the Easements OH
that side of the street OF little value.
The total amount of property Na'ue"
according to the figures of the witness
was S77S. 500 worth. According 10 the
figures Of the assessors. $4,000 worth.
n difference of $l6.46o.
Mr.. Jones stated that in reaching his
results he considered the condition OF
the building. the rent roll. location ana
kind of structure that was on the lot
among other things. This question OF
gross rent roll was dwelt upon to con-
siderable length in the cross-examiha-
ton and the rent rolls of nearly all the
blocks We're mentioned.
Land values he placed at from $50 10
sl15 in the better locations. According
to his Judgment the gross rental on
such property ought to be IL per cent.
in order to get a net return OF per
cent. on the investment. Against the
gross rental was charged two and one
half FER cent. for taxes. collections and
supervision, loss of rent and deprecia-
ton.
The total rent roll Of Water street
property. with the exception of three
banks, was shown to be s7S.1s5. Ac-
cording to the assessed valuations OF
the property involved. this would give
n gross return of 1917 per cent. on the
total investment. According to MI.
Jones figures. il would give gross re-
turn Of 1913 per cent.

tiei,,ateG in making eight distinct valu-
atiul.s of the property in the city and
during that time he paid pretty close
attention To the real estate lansac-
tin.s for the purpose Of learning the
actual selling prices.
The knowledge that was gained in
this manner was of use to him in de-
tcfmining what value should be placed
upon property by the assessors. In re-
ply to questions Of counsel as to what
experience he had had in the way of
managing real estate, he replied that
the management of the Masonic build

one Of the finest pieces of map draw
ing which has been seen at the Capitol
is that which is now being completed
by r. f.. Mullaney, who is ut present
employed by the Board of State As
SCISSORS i'm making plans of the wild
lands OF the State. The map Is de-
signed by Mr.. Mullaney as n sports
mems map and will be the first To be-
completed especially for that purpose.
He has been doing the work during his
spare time since early i'm the year and
the original drawing is now about COM
tlctc The map is intended especially
for the use of sportsmen, and includes
all of the counties of the State with
the exception of AndroScoggin, Cum
b.rand. Kennebec. Lincoln. Sagadahoc
and York. and shows not only the
roads and highways, lakes, rivers and
streams, but also all of the harbors
with the islands clearly defined, and the
drawing is remarkably clear and dis
tinct. showing great skill and care. 1t
is possible that Mr.. Mullaney, after
having the Autograph made, may de-
eide to complete the map and thus
have one of the entire State. The mar
is 42x4S inches in size and drawn on
a scale of five miles to the inch.

Perfect malt is only made by the exclu-

many brewers. Four-day malt cannot
make perfect beer such as Pabst, beer,
because it Is the product Of a forced and
unnatural process of development. Beer
made from four-day malt lacks the nu-
tritious food elements which distinguish
PabSt beer.
