Talbott, Augusta's newest real estate man, was morning by a Herald representative and asked to give his opinion of local real estate conditions. We quote him below: ‘Tn interviewing me at this time,” said Mi. Talbott, "you are asking ques tions of the “baby” of the real estate agents of Augusta, as I am the latest to join the ranks, and I tell you frank ly that there are many others more com petent than I to give expressions on the real estate situation in Augusta. “1 hope you will continue to get in terv ews from our real estate agents for your valuable Real Estate Page that appears on Wednesday and Sunday. Your articles are good reading and well worth the interested consideration rs every business man in Augusta. They are bright, interesting, entertaining, in structive and profitable. I-ater on 1 may give you somethmg for these columns of The Herald that will contain food for thought and what I say then will be outspoken and of a critical nature— both as to real estate agents and to our newspapers. Not bitter but em phatic, for all of the real estate agents have given me 'the glad Tiand.’ Mr. Talbott grows enthusiastic when he speaks of advertising. “And right here 1 might give a bit of advice to the real estate agents in Au gusta: They do- not advertise enough; they do not advertise judiciously, con MEMORIAL DAY IN TENNESSEE Graves of Confederate Dead Strewn With Flowers.

Atlanta, —The whole board of Fulton county commissioners is now formally on record as favoring a searching in vestigation Into the charges of graft, favoritism, maladministration and in competency Arhich have been lodged stainst those who have in charge the direction of the county's affairs. Some of the commissioners believe there is "nigger in the woodpile" and want to see him forced out into the light while others believe that there is no graft or maladministration, but that since the charges have been made, public has a right to an investiga tion to clear the matter up. sistentlv, consecutively, nor, well, that will do for the present. “No, I'll add just a few more words on the point of ‘not enough.’ 1 am using more syrace in the local papers than is be ng used by many well-estab lished firms. In my humble opinion it is the only way in which to sell real estate, whether in Augusta. Albany Osh kosh, Oklahoma, NcAth Augusta, or in any other city. And so lam wondering why more Augusta agents de not use more advertising space. It is the best and cheapest selling force that can be obtained. “But, some one will say. I am more of an advertising writer than I am a real estate writer—possibly so. Be that as it may, we must hand it to The Herald for its Heal Estate feature every Sunday and Wednesday. It is causing comment that is not only benefit ting real estate agents, but every one else in Augusta; for real estate is the reai basis for a city’s progress. “1 am a ‘booster’ for Augusia Real Estate. “I believe, with the protection from high water that we now have assured, we will have in a few years one of the best and most progressive cities in the South. We already have one of the most beautiful in the whole country.
