 All Influence Considered.
 While this corner enhancement does not always extend 100 feet from the corner, and while it some times extends more than 100 feet, it Is found in actual experience that in more than 90 per cent of the corners the enhancement does not extend farther than 100 feet. For those situations where the enhance ment extends more than 100 feet. MT. SOmers has devised other tables to ascertain the fact and the extent of the enhancement, but a descrip- tion of these tables Is perhaps too complicated to include in an article for popular reading.
 Where enhancement does not ex- tend 100 feet the regular tables here described disclose that fact and measure the enhancement only as far as it does go. For the measure ment of lots at acute and Obtuse dNBlGSy IilS Sei4IS CdDlGS dIS uSOo but some additional devices are nec- essary to conform to the irregular ity of the lot shapes.
 The influence of the alley is measured by computing by the depth percentage table the value of the land devoted to alley purposes, and apportioning that value to all the lots that touch the alley. each in proportion to the alley frontage.
 It will thus be seen that the Som- CTS System provides for a mathe- matical determination of the effect of each separate factor which may be found to affect the total value of a site. Determining this effect for each factor alone makes it possible to make accurate comparisons of the effect of similar factors upon va r;ous sites, and to estimate the ef- feet of any one factor without any confusion as to the effect of another. The Somers system is built upon analysis and proper treatment of what the analysis diScloses.

Lots at corners possess what may be called the blended effect of the two streets making the corner. This blend IS not the total of the value of the two streets, but is something less than that.
 Theoretically the point of en- hancement made by two streets coming together is at the very corner. Theoretically also this en- hancement grows less and less, point by point, in every direction away from the corner. This lessened ef- feet must be in curves as in the case of the interior lot with which we dealt in discussing the relative value of the front and rear depths of inside lots.
 Somers Corner Diagram.
 for all of this, we must arrive at a practical way of applying these theories, as we did with the curve of value for inside lots. MT. Som CTS solves this by taking the average enhancement for 100 square feet at the corner as the measure of the en- hancement of every foot in such a square, and he does the same for each square of 100 square feet in every direction from the corner square. Tn other words, he divides the 100 feet square at the corner into 100 small squares of 100 square feet each, and based upon the curve of value he has computed in terms of dollars the value for every square of the hundred for every possible combination of values of streets forming corrers. The following diagram illustrates the imaginary corner of 100 feet square, with each small square bearing an index number. In the Somers tables each one of these squares has a specific value, for each combination of street unit values:

STREET - S2OO PER UNIT FOOT

The above diagram is supposed to. be at a corner made up of a street having a unit value of S200 and of street having a unit foot value of S100. Under those condi- tions 100 square feet at the corner comprised in the little square No. 1 is worth $586, No. II is worth $564, No. 21 is worth $552, No. 2 is worth $474, No. 3 is worth $425 and No. is worth $386; and so on fol each of the squares; the values shade away from No. 1 in every direction and always in proportion to the effect of one street value on the other.
 By diagramming any actual lot upon this imaginary" corner lot and adding up the values of all the squares and parts of squares inside the actual lot lines the value of the actual lot is ascertained. If there is a lot 30 feet wide at the corner fronting on the best street and run ming back TO feet, we find included in this lot are squares from to 2

Tie remainder of the infiu- ence, whatever it may be, is thus left to be appointed to the other owners whose properties are some what enhanced because they arc near the corner.

Walter W. Pollock of Cleveland, O., on scientific assessment Of real es- tate.)
 It is well grounded opinion that plots at corners are more valuable than those farther away from corn CTS. This Is true at the corners of equally developed streets, and Is al ways true in portions of cities de- voted to business.
 The estimate of the value of corn CT and near-corner lots has always heen a source of trouble 10 those who have had these problems to solve To say that a corner lot IS worth moro than an inside lot leads inevitably to one of two methods Of measuring that difference: Either It must be accurately gauged upon some mathematical method, or It must be guessed 2t in each indlvld- ual case. While all appraisers of such lots have recognized the differ cnce, no one except Mir. Somers has worked out mathematical plan by which the difference could be accur- ateiy me- sured. The result has, therefore, been that this difference has almost universally been measur- ed in a percentage of the valu5 of the inside lot on the best street. thus ignoring a comparison of the same kind with an inside lot on the poorer street. This percentage must be necessarily guessed at, and 1t will be found to be expressed Tn the same figures by the same man Tn practlc- ally all cases. For instance, one as sessLr will start out on the theory that about p per cent IS the proper percentage to add to corner lots and he will use 25 per cent m ali of ms corner lot app-aisals. Another assessor will use 33 l-3, another 20, ard so on. Other assessors Will vary from 10 to 40. And all ot these percentages ale used without refer ence to the size and shape at the corners as compared with the sizes and shapes of the inside lots, and without reference to the influence upon value of the intersecting street.
 Corners Computed Exactly.
 Manifestiy such a crude and in efficient method must result n cor ner lot appraisals that are wide of the mark, and in fact that Is exactly what happens in every city Tn America where Somors System methods are not applied. This IS most important "ltGH II 'S Ao6hN that. especially in larger cities, a large percentage of all the lets in ike business centers are affected in value in some degree by street in- tersections.
 Not only is the corner lot more valuable than an inside lot, but often the second lot, and even the third lot is worth more than an in- side lot farther away from the corner. This all depends on the value of the intersecting street, and how wide the corner lot Is.
 These conditions vary at every corner, and at every corner we therefore have problem different from the problem at any other corner. Sizes and shapes diff fer; intersecting streets differ; even the mall street differs at different points It rust be apparent there fore that any given percentage for measuring the enhancement of a corner lot over an inside lot must be irate0uate This fact is susceptible of mathematical demonstration if such proof were necessary, but 1t is not for the purposes of this exposi- tion of the Somers system.
