No I Prices have held firmer, and more properties have changed hands in Wingham during the past year, than in any other town of its size. No other town in the vicinity is building so many new houses. Every year shows solid substantial growth and Wingham continues to be the smartest town of its size in West- ern Ontario. With a falling tax rate and pro- mise of an abundant crop both at home _and in the West coupled with good prices, we confidently look for- ward to A BIQ FALL business for our factories, our mer- chants, our mechanics and also for the Real Estate and Insurance men. In the meantime we have a few properties on our lista, that we tone sell at rather less than their '.rue value, as the owners are leaving :own.
