This alone means a great future for Uni versity Park.

Bestof All Let me show you where you can buy on the in stallment plan, a few lots that will grow to enormous values within a few years. Let me show you that this is your last oppor tunity to buy lots on the Peninsula on easy monthly installments, because all these lots will soon have passed to new owners who will be likely to demand cash for them. Prices and Terms Prices $10 per front foot for residence lots up to $20 per front foot for choice business lots.

If you want a farm and only want to make a small payment down and want a farm that you can pay for. then buy a Wheat Ranch. Make a first payment and pay the balance with half of the crop each year till the land is paid for. Wheat farmers always make money and in most cases get rich. I have been buying and selling wheat farms for 12 years, and never foreclosed a mortgage. That does not mean that I would not do it, but it shows that wheat farms will pay for themselves. Buy now and get this year's crop. Buy now and get the advance. REMEMBER That I sell wheat land that raises wheat. That I handle nothing but the best. That I have the largest list of good wheat farms in the city. I have farms from 400 acres to 1600 acres, and all my farms are im proved with buildings, water, etc. I have several clients that want to trade their wheat farms for Portland or "Valley lands. J. O.
