Palmer Junction, where there is a general merchandise store, postoffice, sta. tion on the O. W. R. & N. etc., is from one to 4 miles of any part of these Jands. These lands have been stumped for several years and the cost of clearing is low com- CUT pared with most logged off lands, The brush and slashings have largely been burned and the white pine stumps are not difficult to remove. There are many small meadows already cleared. The country li&3 fairly level with con- OVER siderable rolling hills. The soil is a rich deep pine ash. This is a natural hay and stock country, while grain, vegetables and fruit have been raised with excellent results. This is a dry farming country, well covered with living creeks LANDS and springs; the annual rainfall being about 30 inches. If at all likely to be interested) investigate further. The price of these lands is only $15.00 per acre, $1.50 down and the balance payable in 9 annual pay ments of the same amount; interest at 6 per cent.
