them as small as possible (and still have
them saleable) In order to have more lots
to sell and Increase their profits. In the
Suburbs of a city and m the smaller towns
and villages this crowded condition does
not exist, property Is comparatively cheap
and there Is little reason for not bavlng

Few people realize the Importance of a
proper location and size of the lot--on

They wanted, the 4next .meeting there In
order to help the National Storage prop

the Idaho delegation, who practically con
trolled everything The Omaha boosters
