CITY GROWING NORTHWARD

Rapid Development.
StOtts Manor Takes on New Life in

East Of Brightwood avenue lies the
suburb Of Manor Park, running all the
way over TO Blair road. with the grounds
of the Masonic and Eastern Star Home
on the east. and the Soldiers Home
grounds on the south.
This section is being rapidly developed
by the Southern Securities and Develop

ming through the middle Of the tract,
was graded last fail, and several fine
houses are now being built upon 1t. The
demand for building sites in Manor Park
has been very marked this spring, fully
two-thirds Of the entire tract being al
ready sold
Another subdivision in this section 10

on the metropolitan Branch of the Balti-
more and Ohio. This plat has an area
of eighty-four acres. and commands the
most picturesque view in the District of
Columbia. Elevated more than 900 feet
above the city on the hills north OF
the Soldiers Home the view across into
Maryland over Hyattsvil!e is inspiring
Here the evenings are always cool and
the air absolutely pure.
For 100 years this has been regarded
as one Of the most attractive spots in
and around Washington. The old man
sion, which is shortly TO be torn down
and replaced with a modern stone dwell
ing, was at one time occupied by Presi-
dent Buchanan. and during the civil
war Gen. Meggs made it his headquar-
ters Many Washingtonians can remem-
Der when there was a long row Of slave
houses adjoining the old mansion, some
of which have only been removed during
the last few months.
1t is the intention of the present own
ers TO make this a very exclusive sec
tion. and it is confidently expected that
the near future viii find some very fine
homes on the property.
Only eight minutes ride to Union sta
tion, with a good suburban service. There
is no spot In the entire District that pre-
sents so many attractive features as
Stotts Park.

The favor Of the Laredo onion is unlike
that OF an onion grown in the Bermuda
Islands or anywhere else. It has a deli
cious taste and the flavor is so mild that
onions are eaten freely by the people here
like an apple or peach. II is said by the
local health authorities that onion grow
ing and onion eating have greatly re-
duced the death rate in Laredo.
IN addition to the enormous money reve-
nue. in actual cash which the crop brings
10 the people Of Laredo each year, the in
dustry has caused a marvellous increase
in land values Any of the valley land In
the vicinity of Laredo could have been

was in this city this week inspect
ing the crop OF broom corn raised
in this county, and has purchased
the entire crop bailed by the Tu-

In an interview with the News
he said: 1T is without doubt
some of the finest brush that
have seen raised anywhere in the
United States. The only fault
find is that a part Of the crop was
improperly cured which caused i,
to rust.
This is one of the best crops
that can be planted on sod as i,
produces far the best results with
the least amount of labor.
Every arrangement will be
made for the handling of a very

feel confident that not less than
