Property Values Seek
Their Level As In
evitably as Water

All the world of successful investors know full
well that the only real and intrinsic values of
properties are based upon and must be calculat-
ed from their Net Income earning capacities, the
law of financial values is as memorable in its
operation as the wheels of Juggernaut. Prices
do not merely ''Go Up'' or "Go Down." they
are forced up or down. lie the property can not
pay fair rate of interest on it's cost price, the
selling price will be forced down to it's proper
value, while, on the other hand, if the property
is earning an extraordinary rate of interest or
profit, the selling price will inevitably rise to
equalize the rate earned with the average earn
ings of money. And it is only question of
comparatively short time until the price of these
same Canadian wheat lands will rise in price to
stheir real value based upon their great profit
learning capacity
Farm lands in Illinois, for instance, sell on
practically 6 per cent dividend earning
basis. Land around Monmouth rents at $40
- (per annum) per acre, and the selling price is
about $40 per acre, IL times it's rental value,
