Means Higher prices and greater demand for grains. The price of wheat hss increased 35 cents, orn 20 cents per bushel.

You can't do better than ta hook up to a good grain farm. If we were in the farming business wa would grab this one, but since it is oar business to sell ’em, we must let her go.

One twenty acre field produced 500 bushels wheat this year. Another field produced 541 bushel cats There will be 500 bushels of corn with proper season.

The farm is divided into fields with barb wire and Am­erican field fence about three miles of fence in all.

Field No. 2__ 17 acres.“ “ 2__ 22 acres.

3----40 acres In original oak timber and isused for hog pasture.

“ 4__ 27 acres.JHus farm contains 12ff acres. It has a large barn 30

by 50 ft., a tool shed, crib, milk house and three room house Ever flowing stream through the centre of the farm. In gooc* neighborhood, only one half mile from Friendship, a good state high school, seven and half miles Southwest of Burlington.

We will sell this farm on EASY TERMS, for less than $30.00 per acre.

An inspection will convince you of the merits of this preposition. Let at thow yoe.
