1t is safe to say that with but a few ex-
ceptions every real estate dealer in Omaha
would answer in the affirmative II asked
whether business was satisfactory or not.
The brisk sales have been a surprise even
to those who predicted the brightest things
for the season. But what is true In Omaha
is not true in other parts of the country.
Looking over the country as a whole, con-
ditions are very much mixed. Reports
from the east indicate that the real estate
situation in the New England states is
anything but satisfactory. "Sales are still
made at a sacrifice says a New York
paper. "In the large cities there are more
vacant houses, stores and offices than
usual"

par with a year ago the decrease Of l per

also occupies q commanding position, as the
falling off is only 5 per cent, while in such
cities as New York, including Manhattan

Brooklyn 46, Philadelphia IS, Cleveland 20.
while, most surprising of all. Pittsburg has
an increase of 1853 per, cent. the total cost
for the month just closed being $2,S27.0l5,
against $ss4.O7S for the same month a year

OF those instances which Just happen
rather than an indication of a permanently
buoyant and active condition. The figures
in detail are as follows:

favorable condition when the entire situa-

1 Less than seventy-eight acres OF the sub
division OF the w. A. Paxton farm, known
as keystone Park, remain unsold as a re-
suit Of the efforts OF the Payne Invest
ment company and the d. ". Sholes COM
pany, which real estate offices have been
the agents for the tracts in the park. These
seventy-eight acres are divided into some
twelve or fourteen acre tracts, through
which pass generous boulevards planned
by the agents, and around among the tracts
are small reservations in s~hrubbery re-
served by the owners for little parks. The
park formerly comprised $50 acres. but the
best tracts in the whole piece remain to
be sold. Ten new houses are now being
erected in Keystone Park and others will
be erected as soon as material and men
can be secured. Two families have erected
fine barns and are living in them while
the homes are being built. For slightly
building places there are few places In
Douglas county which are equaled by Key.

often seems to be to get q design for ono
house and then to multiply It. to reproduce
II indefinitely ad infinitnm, and, unfortun-
ately, ad nauseam.
"Other cities have discovered their mis-
take too late. Philadelphia, for example.
is a city Of sameness. One can travel
blocks and find no more difference in the
houses tina he would find in traverslng
a tier OF cells in the penitentiary. Indeed,
II some miscreant were to come along some
night and shift the numbers on the houses
no one would ever be the wiser, at least
30 far as the exterior of the dwellings is
concerned. Baltimore is marred in the same
way.
Now, OF course, any architect knows
there Is nothing more atrocious than a
house which has nothing to It
but its bizarreness. Such a house, a tumble
OF half a dozen different styles OF architec-
ture, is grotesque. II is a nightmare and an
evidence that its builder, It's architect and
its owner must be mentally unbalanced.
"But fortunately for us there is an al
Tentative other than the grotesque house.
which Is the product of a desire to he
original without the necessary knowledge
OF architecture and the monotonous row
OF ten or twenty houses exactly alike. 1t
is an adherence to this mean which will
do wonders for a growing city like Omaha.
I'm Duluth I saw what seemed to me the
apogee OF cleverness In managing the prob
lem OF building a number OF houses and
having them look different and attractive.
on the brow OF a hill there is q row OF
houses almost identicaliy alike in plan and
arrangement. not over expensive in design,
but constituting a unit. 1t looks like q
huge hotel. for there are no divisions eN-
cept internally. and 1t would puzzle one to
know wher one mans house terminates
and wher another's begins. II is a beauti-
full building. one of the first things a visitor
sees n one that he remembers for a Ions
time. While the architectural style Is, Of
course. the same throughout, there is Q
difference, and on the hill one end OF the
dwelling stands an even story lower thar
the other. Some such idea carried ont by
architects of Omaha or embodied by build
ers of large apartment houses could MOI

In the middle west states, including Me-
braska. Iowa. Colorado, South Dakota and
Wyoming the best conditions apparently
prevail. Tn new towns of the west are
making steady growth. Bankers and real
estate dealers believe that as Kansas City
owes much Of the size and prosperity Of
the city to the fact that 10000 people went
into Oklahoma and Indian territory within
the past fifteen years. Omaha will grow
proportionately as the people go into
Wyoming, with 10000 people In Wyom-
ing" said Luther Drake, president OF the
Merchants National bank. Omaha viii be
larger than Kansas City ever dreamed OF
being and the real estate in this city will

people are going to Wyoming. There viii
