WEEKLY MARKET REPORT
With word about our system of selling propert

w I'LL q WOIO oDOuL OuE ,
The week ending yesterday, Saturday,
the 10th was good one In real estate from
many points of view,
Trading and inquiries have been more
general than the preceding week In GER
tain classes of real estate, and many sales
through various agencies for city, suburb
an, timber and farming lands have each
come in for liberal share of attention
and the market is very firm with little
inclination to weaken, except where mold
ers have held realty in locations that may
be seriously criticized from practical
standpoints, and when IN such instances
owners have the common sense TO see
and face the situation and meet 1t with
such reasonable concessions as to cause
movement.
We do not regard sensible or reasonable
concessions from unwarranted previous
advances as other than healthy state OF
mind on the part of said owners, whose
aim and purpose in SO doing is to change
less desirable holdings for something bet
ter.
The inquiries and actual trading at this
office has been liberal and general va
rious classes of realty investments, all
coming in for it's share of substantial at
tention, and we hear and know of various
deals for different properties through 9TH
er channels in course of negotiation or
completion, and hence, not yet recorded,
which attest the strong undertone to the
market and indicates that reasonable
market values of property is being sus-
tanned.
What is said of the business transacted
through this office in our weekly sum-
mary of the market, is not intended to
advertise our business, but simply as
part of the current real estate news for
the time being; we have no need whatever
to puff the business of this office, or
bits present proportions, which has been
rendered possible by our friends and the
public at large.
We have never regarded this as neces-
sary. and If it ever was, we are pleased
to affirm that it has grown beyond such
necessity 60
Something of Our System.
1t is but just and proper in this connec-
ton to the buyers and sellers of real es-
tate, and especially to those owners who
wish to sell, that they should In some
measure have a knowledge of the very
thorough system in practice that has
steadily brought the buying and selling
business of this office to its present eff
fectiveness. that they may hesitate before
declining to list their property in safe
and business like manner, protecting both
this office as well as their interests,
which is required before our best service
will be given, and which service involves
no little expense and effort on our part
to accomplish the results desired.
The loose system and method of listing
the same property with dozen or more
different agencies, and its baneful effects
on all, is too commonly known to need
comment, with the logical sequence, that
! an owner so listing it, has no moral right
to expect his interests to be cared for,
when he really has no particular agent,
and declines to list his property in way
that will protect the agent and JUSTIFY
the necessary efforts to sell.
Usually the owner places the same prop
erty with a dozen or more agents in the
hope of finding buyer quicker, when as
rule, the best and most active agencies
soon finds this out and lose all interest
in the property, when they do not know
where they are att" and it is strange
that the owner does not see that he lays
himself liable to several commission
claims that could not be successfully re-
sisted at law, If several agencies should
at the same time before notice of previous
| sale is given, or withdrawal made, report
the sale contemporaneously to the said
owner, who persists in the many agent
| plan.
The one active agent plan would secure
| other agents, and even more, and pro-
