CHEAPER TO BUY THAN
PAY RENT"

Rents are cheaper here now
than in other places and 1t is true
that some tenants are still getting
use of the property for less than
5 per cent net on the value of it.,
but the tendency is toward an in
crease up to at least 6 per cent
net on the investment, and until
that rate or better can be realized
by the investor, new building will
not occur.

dubious if the return of prices to
a pre-war scale is desirable. The
standards and conditions of living
have changed to such a great ex-
tent that l seriously doubt if the
people, themselves. want the cost
of living to revert to such a com
paratively low level. In my judg-
ment such return would be eco
nomically unsound.

Bug Enemies Increase

one of the interesting phases Of the
agricultural situation is the greatly in
creased number of all song and insec-
tivorous birds, due to the operation Of
the federal migratory bird law.
The impulse which supported and final
ly put this law into effect in the form
of a treaty with Canada, is typical Of
the economic spirit of the American peo-
pie.
An idealism which seeks TO preserve
these beautiful and useful creatures for
our pleasure and enjoyment combined
with practical common sense.
For these birds are the only protection
we have against the innumerable preda-
tory insects which otherwise would de-
stroy all vegetation.
