have three miles of the road finished

' City property.
La Grande is some town, a real live one; a purchaser can al
. ways let go if he desires a change. This is demonstrated
every day. I have sold 14 homes since July 1st, and have
several customes who are just waiting to find something
that just exactly suits them.
I have several homes in South La Grande that are close to
Fourth street that has ;ust been paved and will Increase
values in that section of the city. South La Grande is one
of the most pleasant residence sections of our city in which
to live. Prices are very low compared to what they will be
two years hence. Remember this last statement. -
VERY EASY TERMS.
I have property in every section of the city that I can offer as
: low at $100 down and small monthly payments on the bal
ance. There are many who are paying $25 and more each
month for rent .that should investigate my listings.
