Real Estate For Sale.
. Thing to Be Healthy

This Is True of Real
Estate Values

as well as human beings or anything else
to which the term can be applied
Be sure values are healthy before YOU
buy property. In other words, be sure
that the values are NATURAL and
caused by folks just wanting the property
so bad that the price continues to bid
higher and higher.
Peachtree from Five Points on out is
one big illustration of Natural Values
People have just kept on bidding prices
up because they preferred for natural rea-
sons to be on that street at higher price
than on some other street.
No one ever did anything in particu-
lar for Peachtree Road. In fact, folks
have pushed the county hard to keep up
with the growth. On the other hand, you
can call to mind many beautiful develop
ments where big money has been spent in
fixing up for people, but somehow, they
prefer the BIG ROAD even if they have
to fix it themselves.
That shows Peachtree is a NAT
URAL HIGHWAY, and prices on it
must be sound. Therefore, your money
is safe on it. It is merely a question of
buying the cheapest thing relatively.
At $40 per foot for 500 feet we have
relatively the cheapest offering on the
road right now. One-fourth cash.
Of course, we have other things, if
this don't suit. Acres if you want them.

TURKEYS ARE GROWING
SCARCE IN AMERICA.

We have a turkey problem nearer
than the Balkans II is right here in
our own barn lots. This is indicated
by official government reports issued
by the United States and Canada at
almost the same time. Both show that
the bird that makes THANKSGIVING
famous and that contributes so much
to Christmas and New Years cheer
may be unknown to future generations
in 1900 total Of 6,954 .695 turkeys were
enumerated i'm the United States; the
1910 census reports show only 3.G9s, 7OS
The Canadian figures show a CORES
ponding decrease. The bare figures
of course. indicate that in 1920 when
we go to market 10 pick out our
Thanksgiving feast, the turkey will be
almost as unknown as the cassowary.
We are not going to make that pre-
dictlon, though IL does seem that g.
69S,70S turkeys have poor show
among $4,000 900 Thanksgiving observ-
ers. our only hope Is that the frugal
farmer will take heart from the soar
ing prices for turkey and give the bird
another chance. OF all the poultry on
the farm the turkey mother is the lin
IL, and the offspring are true TO their
silly parent They catch cold even in
wet grass, and have q habit of pining
away and blasting the growers hopes
for big Christmas money. Turkeys as
the great farm disappointment even
outclass winter wheat. But the turkey
Is still the national bird. We can not
afford 10 lose him. What should we
have to be thankful for If we had 10
go TO the zoo or TO the circus menag-
erie to see the turkey cooped up with
the sacred white bull of India and the
disappearing giraffe? Let not this
blight fall on the day on which we give
thanks.

And This is Less Than Half The Amount That

sum is less than half of. the amount
that Will have been expended when
Uncle SAINTS engineers have completed
the present program of RECLAMATION. In
nearly every western state the flood
waters of the streams are being inn
pounded and already thousands OF
families are benefting by this stored
water. The activities of the federal
government in reclamation work have
resulted in awaking a Widespread in
terest in irrigation which is no longer
a local question confined to our rainless
country. Experience has shown that a
more general application of its prin-

would result In material benefit es-

WOODEN SLEEPING
Cars DOOMED
so SAYS PULLMAN TAX ATToR
NEY WHO ASKS REDUCTION
IN co.'s ASSESS
MENT.

The Pullman Car Co., through its
representative. ex-senator DOherty of
Glare, who looks after it's tax matters
In Michigan. Ohio. Wisconsin and one
or two other states has submitted a
new line of argument 10 the state tax
commission as to why the company's
appraisal In this state should be re-
duced. This is the argument:
The era of wooden sleeping cars is
passing. Steel cars are replacing
wooden ones. The Pennsylvania sys-
TEN was the first big one 10 decide
10 replace all of its wooden sleepers
with steel cars. The New York Cen
trail followed. The company that is
able 10 advertise that II uses steel
sleepers can draw passengers from
lines that use only wooden sleepers.
Therefore, all roads must turn TO steel
sleepers in order TO keep their share of
the business.
The Pullman company about one
year ago built the last wooden sleeper.
Prior TO that time the custom had been
to take back a worn-out sleeping car
from n railroad company when il fur
nished the company with a new car.
These old cars, unless too far gone,
were rebuilt and sold to circuses and
other like interests. Sometimes they
could again be put out for regular
sleeper runs
The company is not now rebuilding
Il
outright. One reason is that there is
conviction i'm the minds of those
most vitality concerned that ii Is only
question OF few years when Con-
gres3 will enact law making 1t COM
pulsory on all railroads TO use steel
sleepers exclusively. II was but few
years since that a federal statute was
enacted requiring that all railroad
pcstofiice cars be of steel.
The company has now on hand near
iceable for sleepers. These cars are
negligible assets In fact, of little
more value to the company than junk.
Yet they are figured by the state tax
officials in the $50 sleepers that the
company owns and which are used
as the basis for taxation. The COM
pany's valuation is s5,75i.54 for each
car. The way the Michigan tax COM
mission computes the Pullman taxes
Ia by ascertaining what percentage the
company's mileage in Michigan bears
to it's mileage insstne entire United
States. Then. figuring that this rate
of percentage is the percentage of all
its property that should be taxed in
Michigan. = "a "a.
Because of the nearly 500 discarded
sleepers. the value of all those i'm use
is increased for the purposes of as
sessment about 5000 per car.
The tax commissioners listened to
this line of argument, but was not in
fiuenced by II TO make reduction. In
the tentative assessment for 1912, is
sued Saturday, the commission leaves
the Pullman's assessment i'm Michigan
the same az 1911. which is 100000
