SEES BRIGHT FUTURE AHEAD
B. R. Hastings Says All Indications
Are for Steady Growth.
PEOPLE . WANT ROOMY LOTS

Byron n. Ilnstlncs, president of the
firm of Hastings & Hoyden, on April 1st
celebrated his twenty-fifth year in han
dling Omaha real estate. He says the
pro i th of Omaha in a suburban way
during the last few years has been of
such a remarkable character as to sug
gest It not only Insures fully the growth
of the city Itself, but also the tendency
on the part of a steadily Increasing num
ber of persons to reek some of Its many
beautiful localities In which to establish
residences; the change of surroundings
from the turmoil and a congestion of city
lit to peaceful quiet, with attractive and
congenial surroundings, serves not only
to administer ,to health and material
wants, but lev Insure Ideal environments
where happy homo life and the proper
rearing of children. '
Crr.ahana nre rapidly beginning to ap
preciate the great" natural beauty of the
suburban localities. Lack of Information
and pome little prejudice have prevented
recognition of this In the Past to some
extent Hut understanding has wofhed n
change in the minds of the people until
today the locality around Miller Park is
building up rapidly with beautiful homes.
Still farther north toward Florence new
homes are springing up In every direc
tion. On the Forest Uwn car line west
of Florenco a number of homes nre be
ing built that would be a real credit to
tho much-talked-of West Farnam dis
trict Prides nre Slodernlr.
In these additions lots can stilt be had
on car lino and macadam roadway as
lov; aa tSV) apiece. Out along tho Benson
line and Clalrmont addition It has been
built Op like magic, and what little over
two years sgo was a cow pasture proba
bly 7C per cent of the lots are now cov
ered with homes.
This situation Is contlnung north
through Vineland up to and around Fon
tenclle park. In a great many cases peo
ple are buying two and three Iota In order
to have a garden and raise some small
fruit.
Out beyond Uoltaon acre lota are selling
to people who are starting to establish
homes on theso pieces to get down to
the point to where they are fighting the
high cost of living. All one needs to do
Is to read the article In last Sunday's
Deo written by Mr. A. B. Llndell, In
which he describes what he Is doing on
an acre by convincing one that many
with an aoro or half of ground are solv
ing thin momontous question, while at
the same time their lots or land Is In
creasing In value from the fact that oth
ers nre doing the same thing as thtm
selves to establish homes and making
prosperous communities.
