This kind of prop erty has advanced froni 25 to 50 per cent, even in the last 12 months. What the cause is nobody will ven ture to say. It is safe to say, however, that speculation and the abundance and low value of money enter largely into the cause. High prices in gen eral may also help In pushing these prices upward to a level with other things. At any rate they are gone. Improved dwelling lots. which five years ago, were selling for $1,000, ar now bringing from $2,W10 to $3,000. Unnproved lots which Uien sold for $300 and $100 ate now going at $1,000..
