- If the improvements are made and
an additional man is placca on thn
mail carrier's list, it will give the
resident section of the city two daily
deliveries instead of one. Some im

nances, and for this reason, cannot
be made in the course of one month,

HOW TRADES ARE MADE
A great many people that own real estate would rather have some other property! Farmers dig a for
tune from .the.soil, then move to the city. The busiiae s.s man retires from a successful commercial life to live
in the country.- Exchanges of real estate usually result in a material gain to both parties, not only on ac-.
count of better satisfaction, but also due to the use made of the land. , Furthermore adavantageous trade
can of ten be made, when a cash buyer could not be easily located. - ' V--
