" jM SuccEssful InvEBtmEnte REAL ESTATE -4- Of all classes of investment, those in real estate should be the most carefully considered, and the rea son is plain. Based upon solid values, such investment is the surest and the safest that can be made. On the other hand, nothing depre ciates in value with such startling rapidity or is harder to dispose of at any price than real estate, which, at the time of its purchase, has for for its sole recommendation a "lovely situation" or a "perfect climate." Neither is it wise in this particular to follow the crowd, for by artful advertisements and ficti tious sales it is an easy thing to in augurate a "boom" that promises fortune to all, but almost invariably results in disaster. The experience of persons who have thus hastily and inconsiderate ly bought property for no better reasons than those enumerated and afterwards repented at leisure an experience so oft repeated all over the world in a greater or less de gree should teach men that only in the natural centers of population, where ample opportunities for em ployment are provided,can the peo ple at large safely afford to invest in real estate. The most correct standard of judgment, therefore, as to the value of property is furnished by the truthful answer to the ques tion: " How large a population can be supported by the well established industries of the district in which the property is located ? " Applying this test to the proper ties offered for sale by the East Pittsburg Improvement Company in the Turtle Creek Valley, below Walls Station, and confining its ap plication to a district not exceeding the property of the company more than one mile in extent, the signifi cance of 'the answer is apparent. At Walls Station the Pennsylvania Railroad Company is erecting re pair shops, round houses, etc., that will directly and indirectly give em ployment to about 1,000 men. At Wilmerding, the mammoth plant of the Westinghouse Airbrake Company is already in partial oper ation; when fully equipped it will employ 2,000 men, most of whom are skilled mechanics. At Brinton, the Standard Under ground Cable Company have con tracted for the erection of their new cable works and wire mill, which, when completed, will give employment to over 400 men. At Bessemer, the great steel rail mill and iron furnaces of Carnegie Bros. & Co. now employ fully 3,000 men. The total number of men em ployed in the district above de scribed will reach 6,400, and esti mating that, on an average, five per sons are sustained by the labor of each adult err ployed in a manu facturing establishment, the popu lation that could easily be support ed by the industries named, not to mention many others, that will prob ably locate in the Turtle Creek Valley in the near future, would reach the surprising sum of 32,000. The figures show conclusively the solid foundation upon which is based the value of property in the Turtle Creek Valley.
