six acres adjoining the Liberty school house. which has been purchased by C. M and b. T. Patrick for s75 per acre We have also sold the Liberty | school district an additional acreage. 1 For the International Trading com pany we have sold to Olsen brothers an eighty-acre tract at s75 an acre; and just adjoining the town of Buck eye have sold q fine eighty-acre tract belonging to Frank Whitten to Wal ter Stone. new arrival from Illinois. who is ging to improve the ranch ma terially.
 John Bonner. who already has a number of investments in the Buck eye section. has bought through this office a fifty -three-acre tract of l. T. Simpson. also in the Buckeye section and we have sold quite q large tract of unimproved land owned by l.. w. Coggins to Sid Henry, who has also purchased through us fine eighty acres in the Arlington country Northeast of town we have sold forty acres belonging to syndicate of local capitalists to x. P. Carpen- ter of Boston. MT Carpenter is a college classmate of Donald Green. This property is close to the Trotter grove. and it is Mir Carpenters in tention to put it into oranges and make it one of the show places of the valley.
 One of the particularly favorable features of these sales is the amount of new blood coming in. the large ;er ,f people who are bringing new money into the valley and are buying after careful investigation of other sec tions.
 In addition to the foregoing sales. we have quite a number of important transactions under way and have just closed a bond for deed on another fine Buckeye tract.
 Since the middle of November we have had a steadily increasing de- mand for Los Olivos property This subdivision. located as it is imme- diately adjoining Phoenix on the northeast. presents a very attractive home site for those who want larger tracts than city lots and who want to keep in section where building
 
 of the new city schools will be To- cated just south of the southeast cor ner of Los Olives. and within the last two weeks city water supply has been carried to the center of this very de- sirable suburban tract.
 Among the sales recently made in this tract is the sale of d tract of nearly five acres on Center street to Dr. Dennett for S1.00O an acre. Dr. Dennett proposes to erect a fine resi- dence costing about $l5.000 on this property. which should be one of the show places of Central avenue We nave also recently sold an additional five acres to Dr. Plath adjoining his
 new. fine residence on the north Fen Hildreth has bought the very choice corner lot opposite l.. II. Chalmers 1 on which he is now erecting s5.5O0 residence.
 Among others who have recently bought in Los Olives and who will build very shortly. are J. T. Whitney. of the firm of Easterling X Whitney. who expects in the next two months to build an attractive S4.06O residence "n his attractive south front lot on the new Coronado road. George r. | Lillcy has recently purchased q fine f corner lot on Coronado road and Buena avenue. and will soon com | mence the erection of S4.500 resi- dence on this tract. Phil Ensign has also bought d two and Dne-half acre
 tract in Los Olives. on Coronado ! road. and expects in the spring to erect q sS.5O0 residence
 Il feel that this home making mov e.
 ment in Los Olives. which is only an example of what is going on all over the city. is one of the most healthy signs of the valleys develop
 ment. and the foregoing sales. show ing nearly sl00.O00 worth of property transferred inside of forty-five days by this office. show an exceedingly healthy condition of affairs for this time of the year.
 q do not believe that the avera ge person. not in the real estate busi- ness. appreciates the splendid home making movement that is going on in the city of Phoenix. Without any reference to the many business build ings and additions to buildings now under way, there are over 125 resi- dences under construction or just completed in this city This does not count the suburbs. The majority of these residences are of brick and cement and a very large portion of them are being built by the men who expect to live in them
 Another feature which is very sig nificant of the healthy real estate condition Gas a walk through the city will show. is that there is hardly a
 store but what is rented"
 Mound City Paints are better.
