Our business and acquaintance .is constantly growing Describing Property We jion't care to spend time and money on incorrect ly described property,' unreasonable prices or short op tions. If the buildings are old or dilapidated, and the land worn or worthless, it should be so stated in the description. It is 'useless, to. expect as much for old buildings as it would cost to erect new ones.' Often it is only the soil which, carries the value. It is mutual interest to have things correct ad we must protect buv- possible. None of us are fond of disappointments. uappy customers make our business grow. Promptness Essential We do not care to spend time and nionev on proper- ty of people who are slow about giving titles after sale, . or cannot furnish what they promise Do your share oi the talking and we will try to do you good; but don't expect two prices for what you want to sell neith er must you expect to buv much at 50 cents on the dol lar. -Be sure and not go in competition with your bro icer or your own interest; otherwise most customers will use their efforts to get the advantage of both of us. Commission Charges Our Contracts read: "5 per cent, on amounts ac cepted; any excess over said price to be equally divided between owner and J Edgar Poag,'' so each may re ceive benefits of enhancement and efficient services; otherwise it is no use for us to try to get more than the limit.
