WHY CONDON PROPERTY IS A GOOD INVESTMENT There are no rival towns near and all the best tillable lands in Gilliam County are in the vicinity of Condon. It is almost an assured fact that WITHIN TWO YEARS we will have a system of elec tric lines from this point to various parts of the country, South and West of here. There is no town in this state that is a county seat and has the prospects of being one of the best school towns, and other natural advantages, where business and residence property can be purchased- at such LOW PRICES as exist ing here. CONDON has never had such prospects of becoming a town of importance as at the present time and lots are sure to DOUBLE IN VALUE with in 12 months. I am back at the old stand. for terms and prices, call and see me. J. F;.
