"Slow." They say there is-no lessening of interest in -city and far mpropertick on the part of prospective buyers. But it simply has been out of the question to show properties to ad vantage.

Asked whether land values -have I been advanced of late, one of the leading realtors said that no materi al increase in farm quotations have been noted recently. The average price he believes. bs remained sta tionary, but with the approach of spring, he would not be surprised to see the market take favorable turn upward. He recognised the fact that 9 very large amoant of all kinds of real property is now on the market. This will go far toward steadying the market.
