Cedar Rocks is looming up as one
OF the real opportunities among Wheel
ing resident properties. Selling has
been brisk frem the time OF its open
ing. This place is n OF the very
newest OF our town developments, is
admirably located. endowed with
natural beauty unexcelled, thousands
OF dollars have been spent In improve

pany. who have been the owners and
developers and who are sole agents.
These homesites are being sold at
moderate prices and on the most lib
eral terms. OF the several hundred
people who already own property
there, many who do not already live
there expect TO build homes. The
building activity this season is the
surprise 10 all who have been in touch
with he place. Six new homes are
being started there at the present
time by those who have bought. A
number OF others expect 90 build dur

PROPERTY IS
IN DEMAND
RESIDENCE SECTION NOW PRAc.
TICAllY ALL RENTED,
Quite Hard to Get Good Locations
in the Business District Of
the City.

That Wheeling property is in big
demand was evidenced when several
local real estate dealers were inter.
viewed on the subject. From their
statements. Island property is more
valuable 10Y and in greater demand
than for many years past. This state
OF affairs is thought to be caused
from the dearth OF floods. Not a big
stage OF water-that is. enough to
scare the Islandes-has been
reached by the Ohio since 1907, and
as a consequence many people are
picking the Island for a home. Prop
erty is we'll rented there.
East Wheeling property is well
rented. as usual, 1t being man. years
back when there was not always a
demand for houses in this section Of
the city. The same may be said OF
North Wheeling, while on the South
Side property VALUES have increased.
In the Business District
Good business sites are as hard 10
End here now as the proverbial needle
n the haystack. All along Market
and Main treet the rooms are all &C.

ceptions. In quite a number OF In
stances the merchant tenants have
found their rooms inadequate. and as
a result many are remodeling TO ac-
lcommodate their ever-increasing bust.
ness.
Several real estate men. when cues
TONED in regard TO conditions. were
quite optimistic and expressed the
general opinion that real estate val.
ues here are better now than for
many years past.

During the month OF May I traded

Trading a Big Factor i'm
The Estate Business

during the warm months. The farmer
desired to get to the city so his chill
dren could secure a better education.
The result was that IL was not long
before a deal had been arranged
through n local real estate man. and
the farmer became a resident of the
city while the city man with his
family Is leading the simple life. And
both are satisfied.
Such trades as these are practically
every day occurrences during the sum-
mer months.
Very little money changes hands as
a result but the deals are made and
everybody seems happy. The call OF
the farm has been heard by quite a
lew Wheelingites and they have
j%ourneyed towards the simple life. but
just as many farmers have come to
the city to take their places. Thus
1t is that everybody's happy and the
deals still go merely on.
BUSINESS Continues Good.
! Real estate men contend that the
business continues good despite the
fact that Teddy, Taft. Bryan and
Parker have been having a merry old
! time. a prominent Democratic real
estate man said that no matter II
there were a dozen parties in the field
! the soil workers" were still doing
business at the old stand and that
business was as good as ever.
Plan More Home Sites.
Several local real estate dealers are
planning openings of additions for
more home sites. Some lot sales are
to be started in the neal future and
some mighty valuable home sites are
TO be offered at nominal figures. Prob
ably some OF the best sites among
these are those in the Lenox addition,
to be sold by the Security Trust Com
pany. They embrace some fine build
ing sites N the location is admirable.
Many people are DESTROYS OF secur,
ing homes in the suburbs which 10
really like the country. and yet do not
want to be far from the city. As a
result the real estate dealers having
property In the suburbs close TO the
city are having n remarkably easy
time disposing Of II.

II Is understood that the Gaus drug

the present location on Zane street,
while the Groves livery stable will
also be moved.

You will see that the proper thing
for you to do is to be firm in your be-
lleve that the weevil is still in the fields
and plan to meet him.
This county plants about $4,000 acres
in cott,n each year and gathers about
$4,000 bales. Your average acre yield
is lees than 400 lbs seed cotton per acre,
which at present prices bring you about
SIG per acre. We're you to increase
your acre yield by so pounds seed cot
ton you could cut out over nc. 900 acres.
ana still make as much cotton as usual.
You would still have this enormous acre
age to plant in peas, peanuts, potatoes,
soy beans, sugar cane, sorghum, essex
rape, and small grains and corn. You
can hardly approximate the result.
You would be ready for the ravages of
the wesfils in 1919 great deal lasss
