            ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                    CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION


Results of Operations

During the six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, the Company owned
and leased seven properties to operators of retail food stores.

Revenues for the second quarter and for the six months ended June 30, 1996,
increased slightly over the comparable periods of 1995 due to an increase in
rent income from  the Minneapolis Cub store, but was offset by a decrease in
interest income.  

Expenses in 1996 were generally consistent with 1995 and with management's
expectations.  Net income decreased by $6,000 for the second quarter of 1996
compared to the second quarter of 1995, but increased $2,000 for the comparable
six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.  This was the result of timing
differences in recording expenses.
 
The Company considers Funds from operations ("FFO") in evaluating property
acquisitions and its operating performance, and believes that FFO should be
considered along with net income and cash flows as a measure of the Company's
operating performance and liquidity.  Since depreciation expense was consistent
in 1996 and 1995, and is the only adjustment that the Company makes to net
income in arriving at FFO, the resulting changes of ($6,000) for the second
quarter, and $2,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996, were the same as net
income for each of the comparable periods, as previously discussed.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's properties are all leased on a triple-net basis, which places
the risk of rising operating and maintenance costs on the tenant.  The leases
generally provide that the tenant is also responsible for roof and structural
repairs.  Hence, the Company's only demand for funds has been for the payment of
operating expenses, dividends and mortgage payments.  Property acquisitions have
been funded by equity offerings and mortgage borrowings.  
     Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $345,000 and $377,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  As discussed
previously, net income and FFO were generally consistent in the two periods. 
Therefore, the decrease was the result of changes in operating assets and
liabilities arising from timing differences in receipts and disbursements.  The
Company considers its liquidity and ability to generate cash to be sufficient to
meet its operating and distribution requirements for 1996.
     The Company invests in short-term treasury securities from time to time,
and investing activities reflect those transactions.
     Net cash used in financing activities totaled $483,000 and $597,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, including dividends paid
to shareholders.  
     The Company declared a dividend of $177,500, or $.125 per share, on June
17, 1996, payable to shareholders of record on July 1, 1996.  The dividend was
paid on July 15, 1996.
