The city council convened Thursday

without any OF the unnecessary delaHl
OF argument that some times enters
into the proceedings when an item OIL
unusual Importance comes before the
meeting.
That the southwestern portion of
the city will not get city water at the
present time was definitely decided
when The committee reported that to
complete the circuit for the extension
of water mains would necessitate the
installation Of mains over a distance
OF more than eleven blocks or some
44O0 feet Of extra pipe in addition to
fire plugs and connections. The mayor
stated that the city has on hand 1892
feet Of pipe. necessitating the pur-
chase OF 276S feet more in the event
the proposed extension is made The
fac that the city is short Of funds
in this department is worrying the
dads to certain extent ard man Is
wanted who can, BY a mathematical
calculation, arrive at the conclusion
Of how the extension is to De made
without cost
Mayor Burton reported on the cost

The mayor reported that after he
had looked over the job assigned to
hir at the last meeting Of moving the
obi fire bell tower to the lot across
from station No. /, he decided that
the job was too big and not really
worth the money SO the fire boys are

some time 10 come. The tower will
be sold.

ject
Every section" said Mr.. Davies
must have within itself some one thing
to bring people there, and 10 keep them
there after they arrive. and to distribute
money among them That means that
we should have-and we have it-a large
money distributing factor in the manu-
featuring interests in The Bronx
The first factory founded up there was
the Jordan l.. Mott Iron Works. which
was started about 1880 or 1870.
"One factory followed another. until the
Mott Haven district and North New York
district were rapidly built up. When. in
1890. flats were built they were rapidly
filled by the factory population and made
a paying investment.
THE development OF The Bronx. and. in
fact Of any suburban district. will he
along the line Of transit facilities. That
has been the history Of every section"
IF the earning capacity Of a building
should for any cause fall below the point
when the return upon the invested value
is less than the market rate says Regi-
nald Pelham Bolton in his book. Build
ing for Profit" then the only means Of
rehabilitation of the impaired capital. or
provision of security for the investment OF
further capital in reconstruction or alterd-
ton. is TO be found I'm some increase or
appreciation in value Of the site. or what is
commonly referred to as the 'unearned'
increment of land value
This is the commonly stated and usually
qnftCinafiOp "a
decrease in its earning ability. and II is a
usually accepted excuse for evading the
necessity for q provision in advance for the
gradual aging Of the structure.
"AS?xsb5fSitfsp of either anticipation 1t Is

The Question often has been asked Of
me-" said Cyrus c. Miller. President of the
Borough Of The Bronx. in a recent address
TO Bronx taxpayers: Does an abuttins
property owner, who cedes the bed Of the
street in front Of his property to the city
lose his claim for damages by reason OF
subsequent change Of grader
Section 992 of the charter provides that
owners Of land may cede the bed OF the
street In front OF their property TO the city,
and states:
'Thereupon the city shall become vested
with the title TO said lands TO the same
effect and extent as If they had been
acquired by a proceeding taken for the
opening of that part of said street: after
the making and acceptance of such con-
veyances. no proceedings to open the land
conveyed shall be taken or maintained. nor
shall the lands fronting on that portion Of
the street so conveyed be chargeable with
any portion OF the expenses Of opening, the
residue or any portion Of the residue Of

portion Of the awards that may be made

| Many young men are prohting this sea
son by the advice given by Ransom E. Will
| cox to those who would like to be experts
| in the management of apartment and tene-
ment house property. He said: The only
way to know the whole business is to begin
at the bottom. There is mass or trying
details connected with the faithful care CT
tenement property. You cannot at first put
! this off on others You will sometimes
make 500 with very little effort and the
next day you will have 10 vex and weary
yourself over the expenditure for some
client Of IS, or perhaps, ) cents. Your
eventual success will depend not little
on your being able 10 attend skilfully to
great number of unnteresting details. each
a triie in itself. but any one Of when
going wrong may be the cause OF serious
dissatisfaction"
This recalls the suggestions made by AL
bert B. Ashforth to men connected with
long established realty firms who had seri-
Gus thoughts Of starting in business on
their own account Mr.. Ashforth said
DO not be too ambitious to start In husi-
ness for yourself with an idea that you
can make more money. I have known
,eood many men, earning from S5,0U 10
$1,000 year with prominent concerns, VINO
have started in business for themselves.
Very few Of them succeed.
You DO not get the consideration from
operators, spectators and investors when
you present your own card that you do as
a representative Of a long established ana
reliable real estate concern. Besides. spec
ulators are not apt to give you the same
consideration in commissions that they
gave in your old employment.
''They will want to dicker. want you 10
divide or pay a commission to some one OF
their friends, and you have not the back
ing nor the capital to permit OF your re-
fusal. Your financial results therefore, are
liable to be very much less than before you
started for yourself.
'In addition, you have the expense OF
maintaining an Office and an office boy ana
stenographer, which must be deducted
from your earnings.
"If however, you are able to secure the
agency for a number Of properties that
will pay your office expenses and give you
a slight recompense besides, / would not
wish to advise you not to start for your
self"
What is 1t that makes a corner lot
worth more than an inside lot? That
question, which is often asked by pros
pective buyers of real estate, has been
answered in a most able and interesting
way by Edward H. Gilbert. He says:
"First-Superior situation with refer
ence TO light and air.
"Second-Greater frontage for the pur-
pose of display and contiguity to passing
crowds or possible buyers.
"Third-Objectiv prominence for ad-
vertising advantage.
"These are great considerations.
