Inquiries for real estate of all kinds
during the last week arc reported by
local dealers, who have been busy with
the closing of small deals and on q
number of large transfers which will
be made within the next thirty days
Actual sales during the week have been
generally confined to residence property
well scattered over the city. Weather
conditions are still holding back the
spring rush and it is predicted that as
soon as building operations can be car
rled on without interruption, the de.
Dand for lots will show remarkable
increase.
Kimball g. Richards report the sale
of twenty residence lots in various addi-
tions during the last week and this firm
IS. preparing plans for a large number
of homes TO be built next spring. Plats
for the proposed Sugar House addition
to Salt Lake are being revised in ac-
cordance with the wishes Of the city
council so as to include all of the addi-
ton in one plat. This will probably
be presented to the city council com
mlttees Thursday evening of this week
and no opposition to the annexation is
anticipated. Meanwhile. a force of
twelve men with teams is engaged in
grading the new star streets while two
surveying parties are making profIes
for the street grades.
The old s. s, Walker residence on
Main street, Just south Of the Newhousc
hotel site, has. been razed during the
week and the site for the Newhouse the.

is also being cleared. Final decision on
the plans for the Lillard building at
the northeast corner of Main and Fourth
South streets was also reached Friday
aud building operations in the new bust
ness district will continue through the
year. Every effort will be made to rush
the work on the Newhouse tbcater

BRICK MANUFACTURERS
INTERESTED IN UTAH
Tennessee Company Inyestigat-
ing Resources With View to
Establishing Plant.

The Morris sherman Mauufac
turing company, of Chattanoo
ga. Tenn. has written to the
manufacturers association of Utah
regarding the location of sand lime
brick plant in Salt Lake Referring to
this report seen in trade papers, the
Chattanooga company wrote saying that
if such was the case, 1T would be glad
to receive particulars regarding the PROF.
ect and TO inquire if part of the cap
ital could he raised in Salt Lake, The
company stands ready to make UP a
good part of the investment.
In reply. ID. +. Collett. secretary Of
the Manufacturers association, sent the
following letter Saturday:
"Salt Lake is the center of terri
tory 800 miles in each direction that is
increasing in population perhaps faster
| than any other portion of the United
States. In iobbing and manufacturing
| lines IL has no competitor from Denver
on the east TO California on the west.
| And on the north and south, practically
none at all from Canada TO the Colo
RADIO river, which shuts Off Arizona and
| New Mexico.
"As stated. this section of the coun-
try is filing up rapidly. Utah is rich

SCISSOR of natural advantages greater
than any other state in tho union. The
precious metals are here in abundance
and there are deposits sufficient to last

one from which these samples come, of
1900 acres. only few miles from the
heart of this city and the railroad runs
engthwlse through the tract. The land
is for sale as the owners have no capital
TO promote the manufacturing industry.
1t would mean millions in a few wears
for any one who would take up the prop.
ositioD. You may ask. why does not
local capital get busy in the premises? =
The answer is that there are thousand
and one opportunities in nearly as MANY
directions. Only few can be
considered and these only superficially.
Would like to hear from you further on
this question. -

FAIRGROUNDS INCREASE
VALUE OF REAL ESTATE
Movement in Salt Lake to Be
Presented for COnsidera-
ton of Dealers.

! Believing that the Salt Lake Real Es-
! tate ASSOCIATION will lend its support
TO the movement for public Fairgrounds
from business as well as philanthropic
reasons, several local citizens who are
| interested in establishing Fairgrounds
in Salt Lake arc planning 10 present
their project 10 the Real Estate asso-
citation for consideration in the near
future. 1t is argued that the establish
ment OF Fairgrounds in the residence
districts has a tendency to raise real
estate values and to increase materially
the demand for rental property in the
vicinity OF the Fairgrounds.
cit is the experience Of all rental
agents that the woman who is hunting
house looks first at the homo and then
at the surroundings for her children,
SAID n prominent local real estate man
Yesterday. "W We have on our lists many
desirable houses which would have been
rented weeks ago had it not been that
the locations were undesirable for
family of children. although all right
for adults. The question is one in
which our association will undoubtedly
take considerable interest in case we
are asked to take a hand in the move
mcnt -
Denver was one of the first cities of
the west to take up the Fairgrounds
movement.
Under a railroad viaduct in Denver
on a piece of waste land surrounded by
tumblcdown shantics there used to
stand n half-fuished but ruinous
"a castle, ~ which some rich man from
the east had started To build in the
early days and had abandoned, when
the railroad came his way, The neigh
borhood swarmed with children. but
they played in the streets. Mrs, Sarah
Platt Decker, afterward president of
the National Federation of Women s |
clubs. then executive head Of the Den
yer Womcn's club. became interested. |
Somebody wrote 10 the owner for per
mission 10 turn 1T into n children S |
recreation center. The permission |
came, and the women fell to. With |
their own money they had the grounds I
cleared and the house repaired, and |
with their own hands they cleaned out
the stately il ruinous rooms. and with
furniture aud decorations from their
own houses they furnished and deco.
rated it. Then they invited the chill
drcu and taught them how 10 play.
That was ten years ago or more. To
day the women of Denver do not have

have convinced the city of it's respon
