The National Association OF Real
Estate boards has the following 70
say regarding the real estate situa.
ton In the country:
The season is here when the in.
terests of home buyers center them
selves on the outlying sections. The
lure OF the open is here. and 1t IS
especially strong, and indicates that
there ia going 10 be considerable ac-
tivity in suburban and subdivision
property all over the country. This
is especially true of moderate priced
homes.
AS a result there will be many
subdivisions placed on the market,
so priced as 10 meet the purchasing
power of all classes.
THE matter OF location for the
prospective home owner is OF the
greatest Importance. The man who
buys in a locality with surroundings
that are beyond the possibilities OF
his bank roll. makes a serious mis-
take.
The practice OF buying extrava-
gantly has come 10 be a prevalent
one: but indications are. however.
that more sane views are being held
by the present buyers. The pur-
chaser who consults realtor OF
long experience and good judgment,
is availing himself OF a service
which will be worth much to him.
Ply buying the right priced home,
he is taking a contract which he can
fulfill without denying himself and
family little pleasures and pastines.
and without always watching every
little outlay in order 10 make both
ends meet

different sections. when contemplate

The right kind OF man 10 deal with.
and one can be assured that every
detail in connection with the pur-
chase will be properly cared for,
thus avoiding all chances for trou
bic to come in after years.

THE REAL ESTATE MARKET.
BY JAMES G. PIERCE

In my opinion the present
healthy real estate market In De
troit will be greatly stimulated
within 60 days al which time in
dustry will be settled down 20
manufacturing as never before
and the public mind also will
have become thoroly adjusted TO
the new status OF conditions The
biggest factor in the real estate
market. 20 my mind. is that OF
labor. II the wage-earner has
plenty OF work at good wages.
times are almost invariably good.
II is common knowledge that la
Dor is short OF the demand, and
wages are at their highest. We
also know that there are thou
sands Of families needing. want
ing and able 10 pay for homes.
The industrial worker OF today
seeks the suburban districts
where he can leave the smoke
OF industry behind him when the
day ends. Put all these facts to
gether. and Il Is impossible 10
imagine anything less than an
active real estate market in De
troit for an indefinite period 10
come.

BIG SEWER
WORK NOW
UNDER WAY
First Unit of New Sys-
tenn Will Cost About
$8,500,000
WILL STIMULATE
HOME BUILDING
81 Miles of Trunk Lines
Included In
Plans

The first unit OF Detroit's new
sewer system is in course OF con
struction. This portion OF the SIS,
100000 sewer plan, which the city
engineer, Clarence W. Hubbell. has
outlined, will cost approximately So
1000, which amount has already
been appropriated
Realizing that the completion OF
these additional sewers will stimu-
late home building IN Detroit more
than any other one factor, Mr.. Hub
bell has a large force OF engineers
and craftsmen at work finishing the
technical details OF the difficult work
and shortly II Is expected that con
tracts will be let for practically all
OF the 1917 portion OF the program.
At the present time approximately
six miles OF medium and large sewer
lines are under contract and being
installed.
n Is expected that two years OF
work will be required 10 complete
the first unit under the present APP
preparation. This is designed to
adequately meet the needs OF De
troit AT the present time. Most Of
the work is being done in the great
territory added 10 the city by an
nexation last year, so that many
thousands OF lot buyers will be able
to commence home building opera
tlons.
Thirty-one miles OF large trunk
lines will be included in the present
unit. The city engineer states that
he is almost ready TO advertise for
bids on the Lonyo-rd. two-barreled
trunk line which will extend for
wood. This line alone will cost APP
proximately s1,o00.000 and Is one OF
the most important in the system.
The low-~rd is urgently needed
for industrial purposes while the
upper end extends into a territory
ripe for home building activities.
The Snyder-rd. line will be the
next In order and will be three and
one-half miles in length. Mr. Hub
bell says he Will do all he possibly
can in the present year on the I.iv-
ernois-rd line. TO be five and one
half miles in length.
Joy-rd, Dexter-blvd and Linwood-
ave. extensions are considered most
important OF all the proposed lines
and early work will center on this
section Miscellaneous lateral lines
are being constructed in this terri
tory TO connect with existing trunk
lines and those expected 10 be In
