Ell PASO REAL ESTATE AS GOOD
AN VESTMEN AS AN VI

has AlL been clear many desirable residence
plots IN p Paso should remain idle, when the de-
mand for homes greater The city extended
al directions in the last ten years but especially toward
the east The city and adjacent suburbs extend about six
miles in q crescent shape around the mountain
This peculiar development has imposed great and
equal strain upon al public utilities and services including
tIansportao1 telephones gas electric light water sewers
street and Sidewalk Improvement and fire and police pro-
lection
moments thought makes It clear that large part
Of all this development Of utilities is uuproducTe, per-
forming no service since the proportion Of vacant lots IS
large.
This true not only in outlying sections newly OF i'm
perfectly developed, but almost equally true right in the
heart Of the older parts Of town. IN residence sections that
have been occupied for ten TO 20 years In many blocks
even On main Highways the houses scattered and there
are many tracts entirely undeTeopeos while many others
contain small cheap buildings altogether out Of keeping
with the surroundings and Of nominal rental value.
There two thoughts IN connection with this state Of
facts that people nay proably take into careful
sderation- First the obviously wise and economical thing
to do by way Of using the ys assets to best advantage
is to I'll IN the vacant lots build them and develop
their fun capacity either to house the population OF to
produce income This plan VIII be wiser from broad com
uty fiscal standpoint than to extend Indefinitely far
ther and farther out at constantly increasing for u
ies while leaving the inner districts only half partly
utilized
Such Plan considered from the standpoint Of the city
council with its tax budget VIII and increasing
income to the city treasury without corresponding outlay
for public service since the public services already in
play all around these vacant properties.
The other thought, vitality interesting to the
average citizen is that these vacant lots all town
possess sterling values investments and bound to
increase in vaue whether developed not As the city
grows population land values tend to increase simply
because the acreage Of land available to live and do
business does not increase and the pressure Of increased
population creates new demand and competition and
queut increased land values sometimes called the nere
meutH
So many ether channels Of investment have been open
hesa last years. and insstent have Of them
been notably the calls that the solid values and
Profitable increases in city real estate have been neglected
But the values are all there just the same and wise
and women hold to all the 81 Paso ground they
possess and pick up whenever they find money
enough 10 make an initial payment.
The best way TO make the land productive is 10 build
it. either for ones for sale. But there
money to be made in trading in vacant let's
buy vita discrimination and after personal inspection
and consideration Of al the economic factors entering into
such an investment.

THE day may not be far distant
i when the cotton farmer will
take his staple 20 the gin. then

OF Abilene. Tex. Towns throughout
the west are awakening 20 the pos
sibillty OF cotton spinning. They are
beginning 20 question the economy OF
sending the raw staple 10 England,
and then bringing manufactured goods
back 70 America, paying transporta-
tion two ways on the finished pro-
duct, as well as duties and several
profits for various ones handling the
cotton in its journeys Abilene and
Stamford are seriously considering
such plants, and other Texas towns
are discussing the proposition. 1t
would not surprise me to see the cot
ton country not only grow. but manu-
facture its staple within a few years.
