Farms
For
Sate
I have several small and medium sized farms for sale
that will bear investigation.
One farm the owner will consider a part or possibly
all in exchange for La Grande City property.
I have a splendid rooming and boarding house prop
erty that is especially well located for this purpose
which the owner will consider takiDg a small home
as first payment and will give very easy terms and
a low rate of interest on the balance.

In a letter which was recently re
ceived bv M. "V. Knight from 0. C.
! Camp, of Eudora, Kansas, the sad
j news was imparted that George Camp,
; formerly of Joseph, had passed away
'. at noon on July 1st. George Camp
! and M. V. Knight were partners for
about thirty years, traveling from
j place to place together hunting and
j prospecting in the mountains near
'Joseph. Last fall Mr. Knight ob
1 served that his partner's health was
failing rapidly so he advised that the
sick man should go to his brothers
home in Kansas at the earliest pos
sible moment. From the time of Mr.
Pnmn's arrival at the home of his
brother (October 18, 1916) he steadily
failed in health until death came to
his relief on July 1, 1917. The death
of Mr. Camp comes as a shock to Mr,
Knight who was so long associated
with him.'
