DEALS IN DIRT

With all the cry Of high prices there
is heard no crv of hard times, and in
sofar as Abbcville and community are
concerned we feel safe in saving the
season now opening will find more real
estate deals than ever before in a SINH
lar length of time. People have mo-
ney enough to buy homes, or lots or
farms today who didn t expect to have
it a few years ago. or at least, they
have enough to make a substantials
payulezlt -ea = piees-cf property. Land
is more coveted than ever before, and
the desire to own home greater than
it has been at any previous time. So
the real estate market, dealing in dirt
as realty men call it in going to boom
this season as it never doomed before,
from all present indications.
1t is a healthy sign, too, for If means
more money will be thrown into cir
cuatioin, and the entire community
will profit accordingly. The man with
a lot for sale, a house for sale, or tn
man who wishes to dispose of his farm
will find that he is facing a brighter
market today, and will for the next
several months, tLlan he dreamed
would exist when he purchased that
which he now expects to sell.
About all that is needed to sell real
estate now is TO let the public know
you wish to sell And naturally the
more who know about the better the
chance of a substantial profit. 50
right here we might call attention To
the fact tlat tests have proven news
paper advertising to be the quickest
and most economical means Of setting
such facts before the public-and only
way to notify an entire community at
one time. Keep this in mind if you
would sell real estate to advantage.
And keep your eve on the colums Of
this paper if Won would buy'to advan
tage and be sure Of getting the best
that the market will afford.

NEW YORK. Nov 20.-Today's brief session of the stock market began With fresh unsettlement due to renewed h- quidation and professional pressure among leaders of the steel, equipment and oil groups.
 Crucible Steel extended yesterdays heavy loss by almost five points to the years low of S5, and Baldwin Locomo- tive and Mexican Petroleum joined the many minimum quotations for the last twelve months Sundry specialties continued to ease on wheat on what seemed like belated selling of pool hold ings These adverse factors were bal anced by the firmness of rails and ship pings, but buying was maintained for short covering to close contracts Sales 575, 900 shares
 Advices and general developments were more encouraging. A leading commercial authority reported more life in several branches of trade" and remittances to London and Paris strengthened.
 Bonds were dull and uncertain, al- though several Liberty issues and the Victory notes closed at moderate ad- vances. Total sales, par value. S6 l7I,- 900. Old United States bonds were un- altered on call for the week | Clearing house statement disclosed a surprisingly moderate decrease of actu- al loans and discounts, considering the weeks drastic liquidation of stocks. Reserves of members at the Federal Reserve bank decreased about $24, ,400.- l 900 and excess reserves fell to slightly less than s12,500,000. against the pre- vious weeks total of 32,20o, 900.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 20.-(Weekly fi- nanciaD-Quoted values continued to melt away in the securities market this week until the average fell to the years lowest, while several individual issues were at bottom prices for two to five years.
 The further demoralization on the stock exchange was in keeping witf conditions in the industrial, cotton grain and other commodities market: and was again popularly ascribed t' the world wide strain on credits.
 In responsible banking circles. where no attempt was made to minimize tho significance of the reversal, the move ment was regarded as an inevitable climax of the imitation and other ex- cesses witnessed here in the first hal of the world war. Among professions traders every successive setbacl evoked grave reference to the "health, reaction" or "salutary readjustment
 While the course of foreign exchang' offered no direct clue, there was ampl' Justification for the belief that muci of the latest liquidation, especially il rails and oils. emanated from European centers, notably London and Amster dam.
 The weakest spot in the foreign situ ation was that comprising Latin Amer ican countries. Further cancellation o absolute rejection of imports from thi market to Cuba and Central and Soul America gave point to the suspended dividends of the American Internationa corporation.
 : Additional price concessions in steel iron, copper and other raw and finished materials were measured in terms o curtailed production, deficits in earn ings and reduced wages. Rates for cal and time accommodations were easier but the deadlock in the investment situ ation and absence of new capital offer ings seemed to carry their own refuta tion of any actual improvement in tn money market.
