Or A 'Home There js a difference between an investment or a 5iome but when you can com bine tlie two j-ou have something extraoniiruiry. Ih.-.veit! ' K'0 seres every foot first class land, three living creeks running through it, 25 acres in meadow, 8 acres in clover, a family orchard just the right size for a gejKU'iLii' around farm. Fair house and large barn, 110 acres under cultiva tion. Tfiis farm lays just right, you would thJnk it was level as a floor, but it has jubt enough slope to provide proper drainage and ample water to irrigate when needed. Natural alfalfa land, plenty of wood for fuel for several years, 1 1-2 miles from churches, schools, lodges,' R. F. D. within two hundred yards. The place for the man who wants to grow hogs, run a few cows, raise a few colts every year, grow a good garden, raise his own hay and sell some besides, live in a splendid neighborhood, where the things that we all love and desire are already established. You are not pioneering when you buy a home like this. I know of nothing at the price in this valley as good as this. I mean it. I have sold three genuine bargains through advertising during the month of May. I do not permit my ads to raise falsehopes that the propertv when seen does not warrant. TTere is an oppovtunitv that will not be on the market long. GeOoH.
