most unanimous in proclaiming
its coming greatness in a com
mercial way. With twelve trunk
lines entering the city and a pop

mile radius, the location of Fort
Worth is incomparable. In clim
ate, beautiful homes, handsome
buildings, paved boulevards the
city offers unexcelled advantages.
The city has achieved prominence
as a jobbing center and by reason
of its packing industries and has
been a fast grower doubling real
estate values in the past three
years.
Mr. P. R. Cook, assisted by
Mr. Winn, is now in this city,
! representing the Inter-State In

has invested $750,000 in the pur
chase and improvement of Ar
i lington Heights, an addition ad
jacent to the city on the west,
j high in altitude, perfect in drain
i age, and in every way adapted
' fnr si fashion a hi suburb. Ol
: this tract, the company is plac*
! ing 045 of the choicest lots on the
market and Mr. Cook is meeting
! with a big success in their sale.
The president of the company

and the secretary Mr. J. A. Wat
kins of Little Rock, both well
known in Newport.
In Batesville, Messrs. Cook

their confidence in this invest
i ment by subscribing for several
lots.
