With the wave of specur lation that has selzed realty operators in the Bronx has come a prosperity that Is feverish and palpttating. There never was such activity In the trading of lots and housea as goes on dally in the Bronx. One can hardly get off @ train in that district without hay- ing a number of real-estate agents “make a break" for him with a cholee lot of offers in houses and lots. “Come with me just two blocks away and I'l! fell you a plece of land that will make you rich in a year,” says one, “It you'll jump in this buggy I'll @rive you to the prettiest home in the county, Just the place for your wife ‘and children,” chimes in another.
