We didn't miss our guess ' either, for at this time, we have sold 15 tracts U 15 Sensible Investors and several more tracts are spoken for, so we believe that Mountain View will all be sold within the next few. weeks.; Now. if you are not one of those 15 Sensible Investors and you have '-.cell vi:;Hrv you knew oi :onr- li;u' where you could invest a fw dollars each wevl:, know that it was absolutely .safe a:vl would return ruod interest,- re would iidvi.! you to come to our office and let us talk Mountain View over with you.

Two years from now, tho same property you can buy now for $100 per acre will be sell ing at $200 per acre. Now we want you to see Mountain View; If you will come to our office, we will take you to the land in our auto, we will how you the f.oest farm in Colum bia County, we will show you how easy it is to become the owner of one of the fine tracts; we will make easv terms for you, a small pay- l .
