Besides being of inestimable worth
to the world from a humane stand­
point, lim itation of armaments and
ending of the ceaseless fear of great
wars, would be of immeasureable
value to industry and to commerce
in this and other countries.

R E C L A IM E D T U L E LAND
IS S E L L IN G R A PID L Y
Mr. L Jacobs returned yesterday
from his tract of land near K lam ath
Falls. He took over an auto load of
prospects and made some good sales.
He has a very attractive plan for
handling the land. He agrees to take
over the land and put it in cultiva­
tion and plant it to crop, either wheat.,
a lfalfa, grain, mint, potatoes, or any
other crop the purchaser desires and
give the purchaser one-third of the
crop for five years, thus taking all
the responsibility for seed and cu lti­
vation o ff the owner and giving him
a substantial return on his invest­
ment from the first. Last year 32
acres of this land was put in pota­
toes under this plan, and the crop
yielded the owner $90 an acre^rent
