Population figures arc interesting, but figures on land values are more important and should carry a lesson to you. In the year 1840 with a population of 728, all the land now comprised within the Citv limits was worth less than $5,000.00. Todav, with a population of 80,000 people, the land values of SOUTH BEND approximate $150,000,000.00. The Studehaker Corporation Expansion will bring 10,000 more workmen within the next few years. This means at least 35,000 more people. This will mean an increase of land values in a striking sum exceeding $30,000,000.00.
