TORONTO REAL ESTATE On the principle that far of hills look green, a large amount of Ont- ario money has been invested in Western towns of doubtful possibili- ties, while right at our door in the city of Toronto are to be found what are probably the best real estate investments in Canada. Toronto will add to its population this year as many people as there are in two towns like Saskatoon. Toronto has a population of 420,- 000 and is growing rapidly. The opening up of Greater Ontario, the rapid settling of the West, the en- largment of our canal system all combine to make Toronto the most favorably situated city in the Dom- inion. Its growth during the next five years will surpass all past records. We can give valuable information to intending investors as we have made a personal inspection of the different parts of the city.
