Increase in Land Values.

WHICH closed this week was an active
one, and went ahead in that particular
OF the record of the previous year.
Increase in Land Values
IWo-thirds of the increase in the tax
assessment of real property in Mont
somery count, Md, in the past year is
attributed to the growth of Washington
which has passed the bounds of the Dis
trict and gone over into the adjoining
territory of Maryland. The returns of
the assessed value of property in Mont
gomery county show a total increase of
over StOO.0U. as compared with that of
the preceding year
Iwo-thrcs comes from the appreciation
IN the value of property in the Bethesda
and Wheaton districts, the former COM
prising the territory along the Rockville
road, and the latter that along what is
the Maryland extension of Georgia ave-
nue. In both of these sections in the past
year there has been good deal of build
ing. and for the most part to meet the
demands that came from people whose
business and other interests are in Wash
ington, who wanted homes in those local.
ties. In consequence, houses have been
put up, farm lands have been laid off
into building sites and these changes are
rejected naturally in the enhanced values
IN the books of the tax assessors.
