Isn’t it ‘worth our ‘while to do everything we can to make our home town ‘a better town, a more progres- ‘Elve town, a more proepeérous town? N " GENERAL OFFICES * NEW. YORK AND CHICAGO IMNCHESVIN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES bt bl e Twenty-Six Million Dollars Per Adté . In New York City there are sever- al pieces of property which must be; covered twice over with gold dollars ibefore the amount will pay for the ground alone. 5 Six ‘hundred 'dollars for a square foot of land! Just figure-out in 'your own mind how much an acre would be worth at that rate. There are 4840 square yards or 53,660 square feet, so that an ‘acre would cost'over 26 millions of dollars—$26,136,000.. 00 to be exact. ‘What makes the land so valuable? You can'’t raise anything on it, for most of ft is either sand or rocks. And still it is held at $600 a square foot. When you take a step on it you have covered $1,800 worth of land! Out on the prairies of North Dako- ta you can buy fertile land for $20.00 to $26.00 an acre—virgin land on which a bumper crop of wheat can be raised. And still the 'New York sand lot—usless except for one pur- ‘pose—costs over a million times as much, ‘What makes the difference? Just this—within an hour’s jour- ney from the New York sand lot, there are over seven million people who earn their living and pay out thelr money for things to eat, to ‘Wwear and to use, for necessities and for luxuries, while you may travel for miles on the North Dakota prai- rie, without seeing ‘a person. = Wherever people congregate, real estate values advance. This has'becn the rule from time immemorial when man first ¢omenced to own property. The greater the mumber of people, whose wants ‘and desires must be fill- ed, the greater will also be the value of the land. The farther away you get from| a town ‘or city, the less valuable will be the land—everything else being ‘equal—-because ‘the benefits acctuing to the owner ‘of that land decreases in the same irate 'jas the distance o increases—and often more.- It 'costs him' more to ‘dispose ‘of what he pro- dutes ‘on his 1and. His'haul is Tong- er. "Thiére is'more ‘wear ‘and tear on His team, ‘harness and Wagon. So 'tong ‘a8 he canniot move his pro- perty ‘nearer town, the only thing he can ‘do to. make it worth more, is to make the town come nearer to him —in other words, do what he can to make it progper and grow. Theére is no uncertainty about the proposition. A. good, live town always increases ‘the value -of .the surrounding terri- tory. ‘What makes a live town ‘Busingss—and only business. 1¢ the retailers in a town do not prosper the town is dead.
