INQUIRY FOR RESIDENCES
AND THEY ARE HARD TO FIND
lutrreMiiiK Comparative Fl^urta Are <

Itcnl K?<Htr CxehonRC.
The Richmond real estate agonta !
scored something of a dull week .ast
wti'K; that in, null as compared with
recent weeks. Sumo of tlio salos of
both improved and unimproved prop
erty that had been practically con
suniated in past weeks were closed up
and tho deeds sent to record, and not
a few deals were advanced on the!
string. hut thore were very lew strictly i
new transactions.
There is no abatement in tho inquiry t
for residential property, and when i
anything in this lint* that is fairly d?- I
siruide is offered at figures that are \
anywhere tuar reasonable it is quickly i
gobbled up.
The Ulciiiuond Ileal Instate Kxchange i
held its annual meeting: .ast Thursday j
night, and was attended by about lJo !
people. The exchange now has a J
membership of fifty-four reiil estate j
firms.
Comparative I''lfiurr? of tlunliies* Done.
The report ot Secretary K. Ray !
Richardson. submitted at the annual i
meeting', furnished some very interest- .
ing (inures. Among other things. it
showed III it in the year It'lft tho real
estate agents of Richmond made sales :
of properties amounting to nvur iJti,- j
000,000, and that there were recorded
last year in Richmond proper, not in- j
eliding South RicliYnond and Henrico '
County. 41.500 transfers of realty.
The secretary also had the figures
for the year 1:*ls, which were: value of;
properly transferred in Richmond, not:
including Houth Richmond and Hen- i
ri?o County. $13,000,000; transfers re
corded for the tame territory, 21,000.
It will be seen that more than twice j
as much business was done last year
as tho year previous, and the. transfers
were considerably more than twice as
many.
The. exchange re-elected Bruce I'owc.
to be president for this year, and IS. '
Uay Richardson was re-elected secre
tary and treasurer.
A movement is oil foot to try to set
the City Council to amend the Uui d- I
:ng Code of t h?r city. U is claimed
that the code as it now stands is untl- ;
imitated and makes a lot of unnecessary '
trouble and expense for house arid
home builders, and that it generally]
needs simplifying. Everything that i
can !>?? liiouglU of to encourage build-j
ing at this time is being discussed
among the real estate agents.

Got 117 Eggs
Instead of 3
That's the experience of one entbnsiM*
lie poultry raiser who wrote me. Read the
wonderful testimonials printed beloirand re
member they are jnst a few out of
1AST winter eggs sold as
m high as $1.00 a dozen. As
America's foremost poultry ex
pert, I predict that this winter eggs
will go even higher. Poultry raisers
are going to reap tremendous profits.
You, too, can make sure of a big
yield by giving your hens a few
cents' worth of "More Eggs" Tonic.
This product has been tried, tested
and proTen by 400^)00 chicken raisers. It
is acknowledged by thousand! of use.ri the
best and most successful cgif producer on
the market today. Every day that you
don't use it means that you are losing
money. Don't delay. Start with ? few
cent*'worth of*'More Eggs" Tonic now.
With egg priccs breaking all records, this
is the time to get eggs and more tggs from
your hens.
