PROGRESS IN FENCES

Freeman Morningstar, a well known
real estate man Of this city, yesterday
took occasion to say few words about
the notable improvements in this city
and state that are holding the atten
tion of the commercial and industria
world locally. Mr.. Morningstar said:

the paper whose columns carry this
sort of news is the one that every
loyal citizen enjoys reading, and
after reading folds with pardonable
pride swelling in his bosom, for his
town, and malls away to friends in

do this because the paper has helped
them more fully and clearly TO cN-
press TO their friends and relatives

their home city and furnishes them
with additional argument and cogent
reasons why their friends should
come here to reside permanently.

secured the large tract OF land at the
corner Of State and Thirteenth South

of the compauy's plans to cut the
ground up into 200 lots to comprise a
new residence addition to be known as

garded as one of the most important
developments Of the week in real es-
tate circles, and is pointed to as ev1-
depce of the faith held by real estate
men ID Salt Lakes future.
The firm announces that within the
wear at least $50. 900 Will be spent III

nose mentioned. Plans are now under

en- homes of the modern bungalow IyPe'
The improvement scheme includes &C.
meut walks, shade trees, street PARK &
and other features aimed TO make fhe
new subdivision one OF the most at-
tractive in the city.
In taking the step the real estate
t;rm sets forth that it has resulted from
an insistent demand for property on
South State street. South Gate park
will be the eighth piece OF State street
property placed on the market by, The
Arm recently. In studying approaching
conditions. real estate activity IN that
direction led the firm to negotiate tor
the new tract, with implicit faith In
the rapid upbuild and expansion OF tnat
