Sells Ten Acres to j.. A. Straka, of
Tama County, for $1O,500.

Two transactions in acreage close
to the city, which are of special in
terest because they illustrate the
very high value at which tracts, for
raising garden stuffs and fruit SO
close to a large market, are held have
been closed by the sale of the l.. r.
London and G. w. F'ouch properties
south of the city. The London Ave
acres, at 1401 South Centef street.
| were purchased for $4,000 by John
H. .Bonawitz of southwest of the city.
The Fouch ten acres one and one
half miles south of the city limits. IN
Center street. were bought by j. a.
EsStraka, of Tama county. for S10.50o.
The building improvements on both
tracts are only moderate. The house
on the London property was re-
modelled few years ago and made
very Comfortable. Both parcels OF
land not only lie very close to the
city. which naturally adds to their
value. but the London acreage easily
can be divided at some time into
building lots.

The advantage of the location or

the city limits. 1t and much of the
land fronting the south side of
Ingledue street west as far as South
Sixth generally is regarded as very
desirable because Of it's high location
and wide outlook and may be de-
veloped some time into valuable
suburban district. The purchaser
gets possession Oct. and he and his
family will move to the, place. Mr.
and Mrs. London do not expect to
leave the city.
Advertisement Gets Buyer.
An interesting detail of the London
sale is the fact that it wasSkold with
the aid Of Times Republican want
ad. The property had been listed
with three real estate dealers for
some time but they did not secure a
buyer. Mr.. London prepared a small
classified advertisement in which was
set forth attractively the interesting
details of the place. This ad brought
three prospects to the property, one
of whom became the purchaser
The Fouch ten acres fronts the
east side Of the South Center street
road, is an excellent piece Of land.
