THERE IS Nd better criterion of municipal progress than a com prehensive system of building statistics. More than any other line of development operations In real estate and Improvement thereon are unaer regulation ana are suscep tible to record. To these the In tending capitalist and settler both look for information as to the place which they expect to aid in Its pro gress. Active movement of real property and consistent and conser vative Improvement upon it are the index par excellence of a town's solidity. ' In Marshfleld we are confronted by an almost total absence of Infor mation on these two points. ' Nom inal valutions in real estate trans fers are the rule rather than the ex ception and In the building line no material facts are required of the applicant for a permit. The first dif ficulty Is Irremediable this sldo of the state legislature, but the second Is under tho control ot the city council ' and individual members of that body are understood to bo will ing to provide by ordinance for a system of statistics which will blazen forth the growth of the city. It is a work worth while. Some people offer dollars for sale at a dollar and a quarter, and then complain because advertising does not pay.
