backward and forward in the middle

The conductor watched her grimly.

WILL HANDLE
ITS OWN LAND
Gary Land Company Will
Sell Directly to Prospec-
tive Builders.
MIDDLE MEN GUT OUT.
Lots Within the Corporate Limits of
the Steel Town to Be Disposed
Of at Home Office.

The Gary Land company has COM
pleted all of the preliminary work
connected with the preparing Of
plats. arranging of prices. terms,
contracts and other matters incident
al to the handling of large guam
tlty of the real estate. The company
expects to be ready to put the prop
erty on the market about September
8. At that time the four thousand
lots which comprise the number in the
first survey will be placed on sale
They will be sold on contract, 10
per cent of the purchase price in
cash, Is per cent in thirty days and
the balance to be paid within eigh-
teen months. The purchaser must
agree to build on the property pur-
chased and this building must be
completed within eighteen months.
The deferred payments to draw six
per cent interest. All of the prop
erty will be sold through the main
Office of the Gary Land company at
Gary. There will be no Chicago Of
fice and no agents will be employed
to negotiate the sales of any of the
property outside
Inasmuch as this is but small
number of lots for the large number
of people that will come here dur
ing the next few months there is no
doubt that every lot will be taken
within a short time Hundreds of
intending purchasers come personally
or write daily inquiring concerning
the property and its sale to the land
company, and every day brings a
larger number of inquiries. Many
are from people who wish to build
and open up in various business lines
at the earliest possible moment. This
is but a meager statement of the
great interest being taken in the de-
velopment of Gary by men from all
over the country and is but slight
indication of the great rush that will
take place when the sale begins.
