Quinlan, the McHenry county real estate broker, advises us that never in the history of McHenry county has there been as many sales of real estate as in the past year, many, if not nearly all, of the sales to be consummated March 1, 1920. He further advises us that it will be an utter impossibility for the banks, lawyers, abstract companies and real estate men of this county to close all of these trades so scheduled to be closed on that day. It would be well for as many as can to close their transactions before that date and so relieve the congestion that is bound to result. If the trade cannot be entirely closed, all papers should be executed and left in escrow in some bank pending the closing of sales. It is only a short time till March 1 and this work should not be left for the last few flays of the month. D. F. Quinlan. tlnti was a Chicago visitor in the^bank while hie has a JBcicaAd4 in. the bank to whom he can turn when he has little.
