Now Is the
Tinae to Buy

A growth unprecedented in
the history Of Washington is
on the eve of its beginning, and
those who take advantage OF
present prices OF real estate
are the ones who will be able
to resell at big profit.
Real estate is cheaper now in
Washington than it will ever
be again. and to-day is the
time to buy in advance of the
rapid rise in values which is
surely coming.
At no period OF her history
was Washington ever 50 pros
porous and growing as she is
to-day.
No place like Washington for
planting your dollars, II you
expect to gather a big crop of
values in return.
Washington real estate is the
sure road to fortune.
Immense fortunes have been
made from small investments
in Washington.
History repeats itself, and
those who buy now are bound
to make money and make it
rapidly,
The people who a few years
ago were far-sighted enough to
invest in Washington real es-
tate are wealthy to-day!
The next five years will show
even a more rapid rise in
values.
Washington hasn't started to
grow yet!
If success is worth having
it's worth having right NOW!
Don't be amongst the walters
Of lost opportunities.
Get in the going while the
Eoing's good.
Take a chance. You can't
lose on Washington real estate
and you arc bound to make
money.
Only the far-sighted investors
reap the harvests.
Don't delay. Come at once
and invest in

PIE of this state, for their approval
or rejection. an amendment to Section
16 of Article 9, of the Constitution
This Section now reads as follows:
"Section 16. For the purpose Of
lending aid in the construction and
Improvement Of public highways
and bridges, there is hereby Great
ed a fund, to be known as the state
road and bridge fund.- said fund
shall include all moneys accruing
from the income derived from
investments in the internal improve
ment land fund, or that may here
after accrue to said fund, and shall
also include all funds accruing to
any state road and bridge fund,
however provided. ~
a. "The legislature is authorized to
add to such fund, for the purpose Of
constructing or improving roads
and bridges Of this state, by pro-
viding, in its discretion, for an
annual tax levy upon the property
Of this state of not to exceed in
any year one-fourth (A) of one
