Land Sales j r, ; V:: Are Increasing A gentleman who is a large
land owner "in this "COUnty and who keeps in closer touch with land transfers- probably than any other man in the county, in a conversation this week with an Inter-Ocean" representative said that he had never seen land changing hands-faster than at the present time in this county.

Nearly $1 these purchases are being made however by farmers who have lived fifteen and twenty years in the county^ They knov the value of the land as a crop producer and tliey are getting hold of every

Tax Sales And Tax Titles
The tax sale at the court house this week attracted the average number of purchasers, but because of the fact that a tax title is little better than none at all makes these sales some-wha^farcical. The taking of.; a cian's property for taxes" is a serious matter, and no man should have his property so sequetered without a reasonable opportunity for redemption/ But where the owner is a nori= resident and suffers his taxes to lapse and at the same time holds his land for the increase in value from the development of the countrv by the people who pay taxes, there should be some way of placing the land on the market after due notice to the owner and selling it for a fair value, returning the surplus to the owner, and then the tax title should be made perfect.* .;
