The Outlook for January 6, 1926

How To Make Money

In REAL ESTATE

How the man of small means can make his money double or treble by
wisely investing in real estate in his own neighborhood or city, without
taking wild chances. A simple, sound explanation of every phase of
real estate opportunities-and warnings against foolish investments.

R

ECENTLY a man bought a store in a thriving
town near New York, paying $2,000 on sign-
ing the contract. Three months later he sold
the store at a profit of $3,000 cash.

Last July a man purchased an old residence
on a business street. He spent $1,500 in putting a store
front on the property, and before the work was com-
pleted sold the building at a profit of $4,000.

A few months ago several men formed a syndicate, each putting up a few hundred dollars. Property was purchased and sold, the profits reinvested, and today each member of the syndicate has earned a profit of 800% on his investment.

In March, 1925, a woman was urged to invest several thousand dollars in some vacant property along the line of the city's growth. In September she sold at a profit of $10,000.

Wherever you go-in every city, town and hamlet, you will find that fortunes have been made in real estate, by people in every walk of life!

Within your own experience you probably know instances of someone having made handsome sums on real estate transactions.

And, aside from the attractive feature of increasing valuation, enormous income returns are made on sound real estate, sometimes as high as 30% per year on the money invested!

No matter who you are, or how little money you may have, you too can make money in real estate, either by investing in property that will pay you 15% or more on your investment, or by investing in property for resale at a higher price than you paid.

Of course money is lost in real estate too-just as money is lost in other investments. Real estate cannot and should not be bought "blindly." There are many things to consider, depending on your circumstances. There is no need, in this great, growing, prosperous country, for anyone to take wild chances on real estate. But you must know what to buy and what NOT to buy.

Realizing that thousands of people are intensely inter-
ested in the profits to be made in real estate, a group of
successful real estate investors and professional real estate
specialists, have prepared a series of simple lessons which
anyone can understand and apply. These lessons, in
book form, cover the subject from the very beginning,
leaving nothing to the imagination, taking nothing for
granted. This book, called "Making Money in Real
Estate," tells about the two forms of buying-for invest-
ment, or for speculation-and explains in detail the
various types of property which should be considered
under each division.

There are chapters on Vacant Property, and Improved
Property. The Science and Psychology of Sites is ex-
plained. Stores, Homes, Factories, Apartment Houses,
Garages, Gas Stations, their locations, operation, advan-

tages and disadvantages, are discussed. How to judge
the value of property and buildings is made clear.

There are complete and comprehensive chapters on
How Much Cash to Offer in Proportion to the Total
Price; What Kind of Mortgages are Good, and Bad;
The Facts about Interest and Amortization. Simple Real
Estate Law is explained, including what is involved in
Contracts, Titles, Mortgages, Deeds, Rents, etc.

There is a complete section devoted to Selling Real
Estate which is worth many, many times the entire cost of
the book.

This new book is not only for those seeking profitable investments in real estate, but for those who now own property. It will help you determine whether or not to sell what you now own, even at a loss, in order to invest in something more substantial, more promising. It will show you how to make up for any mistakes you may have made in the past. It is also for the man who is thinking of buying a home, for it tells what to avoid, as well as what to buy and may be the means of saving you from making a serious mistake.

There has never before been a book so complete, so easily understood, so thorough in its handling of each subject. It is a guide to profits-a safeguard against losses.

So confident are the publishers that you will be delighted with this work that they offer to send it to you on ten days' trial, with the privilege of returning for refund if you are not entirely satisfied. Send no money. Just mail the coupon or a letter and the book will be mailed at once. Pay the mailman $3.00 plus postage when the book arrives, then read it carefully for 10 days. Remember, your money will be refunded if you do not find the book is the key to real estate profits for you.

Right where you live-in your own block-or on the next street certainly in your own city or town, ther are countless opportunities for profit in real estate. Why not at least learn the fundamental and important points about real estate so you will recognize the opportunities before you and also avoid mistakes? This book is written for the beginner, yet contains hundreds of valuable ideas for the experienced operator. It is simple, practical, sound. Write for your copy now, as the first edition is limited.

The Soviet and the Bee IN your magazine of December 9, an

article, signed only with an initial and entitled "Doctor, Lawyer, TutorThief," leads us to believe that educated men are persecuted by the Bolsheviki.

I happen to have correspondence with the Director of Tula's Experiment Station, situated about one hundred miles south of Moscow. The Director, T. A. Tuenin, sent us a description of their work, which is certainly much greater than anything that has been done in Russia previously. We are able to ascertain this, as we have published a book on bee-keeping, "The Honeybee," which had four editions in the Russian language.

I don't wish to throw doubts on the statements of your anonymous writer, but would suggest that the Russians are trying to improve, and that we ought to encourage their work, instead of trying to show them as criminals. There were many crimes committed by the revolutionists; still, if the people were under a czar they would be less able to improve, with the system of serfs, than they are to-day.

The Tuenin article on apicultural experiments is to be published in the "American Bee Journal." They are anxious to show the world that they are making progress. C. P. DADANT, Editor "American Bee Journal."

To Soap-gropers

No, the gentleman in the picture pensive. It is not too late for some

is not practicing a new juggling act. Nor is he training for a shopping expedition with his wife. He hopes by this manoeuver to get a reasonably comfortable bath with a supply of sinker soap.

As each sulky cake scuttles to a hidden recess in the tub bottom, he will take a fresh one from the basket. This is a clever idea, but ex

friendly person-his wife or his
brother-in-law, for instance-to
present him with a cake of Ivory.

Not only does Ivory float within arm's reach-it also lathers. And when Ivory lather has done its refreshing work, it quickly and quietly disappears in the rinse like a polite guest who never outstays his welcome.
